Every April and October, we have the privilege of hearing messages of inspiration and guidance at general conference. It is intended to be a revelatory experience as we learn from living prophets and apostles through the influence of the Holy Ghost. Proper preparation will help ensure that you get the most out of your conference experience.

As you prepare for general conference, I invite you to ponder questions you need to have answered. … There are messages in each general conference given as a gift and a blessing from heaven specifically for our personal life situations. — Dieter F. Uchtdorf

As you prepare personally, ask yourself “What questions and challenges do I need direction and guidance on?”

Tip: In the Gospel Library app, you can download a placeholder for the upcoming general conference. Then, you can pick a session and record any questions you have prior to the session. Then during conference, you can digitally record and save the answers you receive as you follow along throughout the meetings.

The page Ideas to Prepare for General Conference at ChurchofJesusChrist.org provides suggestions to review with your family.
