​Genesis, an organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was established on October 19, 1971. It developed from meetings between Church leaders and Black converts in the Salt Lake Valley, many of whom were descendants of early pioneers, and some who were less active in the Church of Jesus Christ.

사명 선언문 :

The mission of Genesis is to support members of the Church of Jesus Christ who are of African descent, to engage all Church members in dialogue, and to recognize the contributions of all Saints, regardless of race, ethnicity, and background.

모든 사람을위한 안전망

Special care was taken to ensure that Genesis not be seen as an attempt to segregate the races. In this sense, Genesis functions like other ethnic units and congregations of the Church, like a Lao or Chinese branch, a Spanish Ward, and so forth. This provides a safety net for people of different backgrounds and cultures while they adapt to their Church home and to one another.

창세기는 교회 내의 민족 단위에 대해 서로 다른 견해가 있음을 인정하지만, 교회 활동, 유지 및 다양한 문화에 대한 존중의 가시적 인 이점이 우리가 그리스도 께 나아갈 때 기쁨을 찾는 교회의 사명에 필수적이라고 믿습니다. 창세기는 신권 지도력 아래 계속 봉사합니다. 창세기 그룹의 교회 전체 회장단에는 Jamal Willis, Davis Stovall 및 Joseph Kaluba가 포함됩니다.
