Mormon Reformationとは 意味・読み方・使い方

In 1856-1858, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints underwent what is commonly called the Mormon Reformation. During this period in the 1850s, President Brigham Young sent his counselor Jedediah M. Grant and other church leaders to preach to the people in Utah and surrounding Mormon communities and inspire them to reject sin and turn towards spiritual things. The most conservative, and even reactionary, elements of church doctrine dominated the public discussions. As a result of the Reformation, almost all "active" or involved LDS members were rebaptized as a symbol of their commitment.
