FWIW, the teacher, Bill Currie, is most likely not LDS. The name of the church is similar but not the same as the LDS church.
Bill Currie's Church:
the Church of Latter Day Saints
LDS Church:
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
ETA: Also the LDS/Mormon Church don't have Preacher's, they have Bishop's.

Early Years: Before Bill Currie's career as an educator, he worked as a Theology major and a re-knowned Preacher at the Church of Latter Day Saints in Nashville, TN. Bill Currie also engaged in many protests for civil rights in his earlier years.
Someone very close to me was a Mormon at one time and he uses the following terms interchangeably:
LDS
Mormon Church
Church of Latter Day Saints
He rarely uses the whole The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Also, as a genealogy who goes to an LDS church often to research, I've never used the entire wording either. It's LDS or Church of Latter Day Saints or, most often The LDS Church.
