Cet article traite de l'histoire et des modalités de l'inculturation de l'Église de Jésus-Christ des Saints des Derniers Jours en Haïti. S'appuyant sur des archives jusque-là peu exploitées, et d'autres totalement inédites, il retrace les moments forts des relations entre cette Église et Haïti, y compris sur le plan étatique, de 1852 à 2019. Il met notamment en exergue les conditions ayant favorisé la conversion et l'assermentation du premier représentant local haïtien et la reconnaissance juridique de l'Église en 1980. Il fournit aussi des indications sur l'engagement social de l'institution ecclésiale. This article maps out the history and surveys the inculturation of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Haiti. Relying on archives that had either been understudied or that had never been published before, the article brings to light key moments of the relations between the Church and Haiti, including the country's government, from 1852 to 2019. It highlights in particular the conditions that led to the conversion and later swearing-in of the Church's first local authority in Haiti and its legal recognition in 1980, as well as the Church's ongoing social commitment in the country.
