{LDS} General Conference - a little "Get To Know"

Salt Lake Temple

A thought it would be a good idea to explain about the upcoming General Conference!

Twice a year the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (AKA Mormons) broadcasts a General Conference world wide from the Conference Center at Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah. General Conference of the LDS Church is held in April and October, usually on the first Saturday and Sunday of the month. In these meetings the First Presidency, 12 Apostles, and other leaders of the LDS Church share inspirational messages to members throughout the world.
