For the first time, the
priesthood session of the upcoming general conference will be broadcast live on
Saturday, October 5, on expanded channels, including LDS.org, the Mormon
Channel, and BYU Television. However, where distances permit, the Church is
encouraging priesthood holders to attend the general priesthood meeting at
their local chapel. The meetinghouse broadcast represents an important
tradition and is an especially uplifting experience for young men who hold the
Aaronic Priesthood.

2014 Church Curriculum Announced
Can you go digital?
There are many of us that have gone digital. We bring our smartphones, iPads, and notebooks to church for our scriptures, Ensign articles etc. Can you do that for your Relief Society and Priesthood class, unless you are a teacher (or even if you are a teacher)?
Can you go digital in 2014 and save the ward and the church on curriculum expenditures?
See what LDS.org has to say about next year's curriculum. (Coped from LDS.org)

Beginning on January 1, Church members worldwide will begin
studying new curriculum for 2014. A link to the Instructions for Curriculum
2014 and the list of manuals for Melchizedek Priesthood, Relief Society,
Primary, Sunday School, Young Men, and Young Women can be found online at
lds.org/manual/2014.
Digital
Students and teachers are encouraged where possible to use
digital versions of these materials, which can be found online at
lds.org/manual and in the LDS Gospel Library mobile app.
Print
Before ordering, consider the following questions to help
you avoid ordering more printed copies than needed:
· How many printed
copies of each item does your unit already have available?
· How many teachers
and members use digital versions of materials rather than printed copies?

LDS Cannery policy is evolving
Please read the LDS Newsroom article found at this link for more information.
I went to the LDS Food Storage facility in Plant City on May 8, 2013 and they only had a few bulk bags of product left. All other product was already canned and in boxes. I was worried that I would have to hurry and buy what they had before it was all gone, but that wasn't the case.
I believe this change will actually be to our benefit. You arrive and purchase your product already canned. No need to buy the empty cans, buy the product, seal the cans, label the cans, and then box the cans. All of that work is already done for you and the cost is the same. The cans, the box etc are already calculated into the cost of the product. I think this is going to be so much easier for more people to obtain their 3-month or years supply, because you just go and buy your various products and don't have to worry about preparing it or if you know how to properly use the canner etc. I was also told that 4 new product types will be available by November. They are actually increasing their variety.
