SALT LAKE CITY — The concert for the Utah Area Young Single Adult Conference has already sold out, but tickets to other events remain available for young single adult members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who want to participate in the conference next month.
Elder Kevin W. Pearson, president of the Utah area, said they are using the word "epic" to describe the upcoming conference — and they want the event to be fun — but organizers and church leaders are also hoping to use the event to increase the faith of members who attend. The Saturday event will feature short inspirational messages from church leaders and other noteworthy Latter-day Saints like author Brandon Sanderson, Relief Society General President Camille N. Johnson, artist Kate Lee and executive producer of "The Chosen," Brad Pelo. There will also be concerts, live bands, a service project, tours of a tabernacle replica, sports, dinner and speed dating.
"This is really going to be a historic event — the first-time-ever opportunity to try to gather large numbers of young single adults to to an event like this," Elder Pearson said. The devotional and the "Christ Daily" talks at the Gather Together Conference will be broadcast live on the conference website for those who do not get tickets.
