Easter and Palm Sunday Adjustments | April 5th
The First Presidency has announced that because Easter Sunday falls on April 5th this year, the same weekend as General Conference, there will be some scheduling changes. On Palm Sunday (March 29th), only sacrament meeting will be held with no other meetings that day.
The First Presidency encourages that messages and music for Palm Sunday center on the Savior’s Atonement and Resurrection. To create a special Easter-focused worship experience, they suggest that fast and testimony meeting could be held another week.
Resources for planning Palm Sunday, Easter, and Holy Week celebrations are available at ChurchofJesusChrist.org.
