Welcome to Conference

It took so long to get things set up that we missed the entire opening remarks. The computer wouldn’t load a plugin to play the live stream so w had to Chromecast it from YouTube.

This conference marks the 90-year anniversary of radio broadcasts of general conference. During the October conference of 1924, the sessions were broadcast on the radio for the first time through Church-owned KSL. This conference also marks the 65-year anniversary of television broadcasts of conference. At the general conference held in October 1949, the sessions were first televised throughout the Salt Lake area over KSL television.

This is evidence of how rapidly and readily the church adopts new technologies to share the gospel.
