General Conference is this Saturday, October 5, and Sunday, October 6.

The First Presidency invites the world to participate in messages of inspiration and guidance that will be delivered by the First Presidency, members of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, and other General Authorities and general officers of the Church.

See this general conference infographic that explains more about LDS general conference.

Here are 8 ways that you can participate in LDS General Conference:

#1: In Person

There is power in the Spirit you can feel by attending the live event, either at the Conference Center or in your meetinghouse. If possible, I encourage you to arrange your schedules so you can attend live.  The Savior has promised that “where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). What could be more important on Saturday and Sunday than listening to Prophets and Apostles of God giving us advice on how to live in an increasingly evil and confusing world?

• Attend the live event in the Conference Center in Salt Lake City. See ticket information.
• Attend the live satellite or Internet broadcast in your own meetinghouse. For worldwide broadcast times and options, see the full satellite broadcast details. To find a meetinghouse anywhere in the world, visit maps.lds.org. Although the priesthood session will for the first time be broadcast live on TV and on the Internet, Church leaders encourage men and boys to attend at their local meetinghouses, unless health or distance makes that impractical.

#2: Internet

• Conference.lds.org has live video streams in 19 languages and live audio in 64 languages. (Closed captions are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese on the LDS Media Player (Flash) by choosing the CC button on the player. Also available in English only on Apple iOS devices by going to the video settings on the device and turning on closed captions.)
