The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced Friday a series of new security measures for its twice-yearly conferences — including street closures — designed to “improve safety and enhance the patron experience.”
The fall sessions of General Conference are scheduled Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 6 and 7, at the 20,000-seat Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake City. Sessions are planned for 10 a.m., 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Oct. 6 and 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Oct. 7.
