The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced the schedule for the upcoming 194th Annual General Conference, inviting Church members.
General sessions for all individuals and families will be held Saturday morning, afternoon and evening on April 6, and Sunday morning and afternoon on April 7, according to the March 7 letter sent to Area Seventies; stake, mission, district and temple presidencies; and bishoprics and branch presidencies.
“We encourage members to listen to, study, ponder, and apply the counsel and direction given,” wrote the First Presidency — Church President Russell M. Nelson and his counselors, President Dallin H. Oaks and President Henry B. Eyring.
They noted that the conference messages will be published in the Gospel Library app, on ChurchofJesusChrist.org and in Church magazines for additional viewing and study.
Accompanying the letter was a 10-page addendum with start times for viewing, program lengths, offered languages, information for stake technology specialists, and details for satellite broadcasts and livestreaming.
The addendum confirmed the traditional session start times of 10 a.m., 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. for Saturday, April 6, and the 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. start of the Sunday, April 7, sessions.
The letter also noted that because of ongoing construction on and around Temple Square, in-person attendance for the conference sessions will be limited. Also, local leaders are to decide about members gathering to watch conference in meetinghouses.
The letter in its entirety reads:
