Regional Broadcast September 13th

Anyone have additional information about the Regional Broadcast (Utah) on September 13th?

I assume it will be an satellite broadcast?
Will there be a replay, as we can not fix our whole stake into a single building...

There is no information at broadcast.lds.org

We received information about the multi-stake conference from our area office. It will be broadcast live from the BYU Marriott Center at 10:00 AM. There will be a rebroadcast at 1:00 PM.

15 of the Provo YSA stakes and one of the Provo Married Student stakes are assigned to attend there, at the Marriott Center (I have the full list if you'd like). Everyone else will receive the meeting by broadcast.

We've been told that there won't be a leadership training or Saturday session associated with the conference since it's not taking the place of a regular stake conference. However, the regular three-hour block will be canceled.

Your SP can request the credentials needed to stream it over the Internet so non-satellite equipped buildings can receive it.

This is the new format Church-wide that was announced last year. Every stake gets two stake conferences a year, one presided over by a general authority or area seventy, and one where the stake president presides. These two conferences include Saturday meetings.

In addition, every other year, every stake gets a regional satellite broadcast stake conference, but no Saturday conference meetings are involved. The broadcast cancels the normal Sunday meetings for that region on that day, but it does not replace the other general authority stake conference as was the custom in past years. It is just an extra Sunday only stake conference.

Any word on who the speakers will be?

They are different for every regional broadcast, and we have never been told in advance who will speak.

The usual minimum lineup is a member of the Seventy, a sister from the general presidency of the Relief Society, Young Women, or Primary, an Apostle, and then a member of the First Presidency.

Can I watch this broadcast live online since i can't attend the meeting?

I would also like to know if this can be viewed online

Do you know of a church building address that will be rebroadcast at 1pm?

any news, anyone?

Regional Broadcasts are not available to the general membership, so they're not broadcast like General Conference. There may be the ability to stream for members, but that should be worked out with the priesthood leaders ahead of time as there's usually only a limited capacity. So that's usually reserved for shut-ins.

Your bishop and/or stake president would have information about streaming the conference at home, if it's available. Because it's a regional, not a general, conference, as mentioned above, the local leaders are the ones to go to for the specific streaming information (which may vary from stake to stake).

I don't know where it will be rebroadcasted at 1:00 – I know that it won't be rebroadcasted to the Marriott Center.

Will there be any way to access the talks given at this broadcast in the future? Will there be a PDF or written format? If so, where would I look for it?

I've never seen regional broadcasts show up elsewhere.

In the past, I've seen a link show up for about a day at https://www.lds.org/broadcasts/stake-co ... e?lang=eng. The link is for a live-stream, not a recording, and it disappears soon after.

These have not been available after-the-fact in the past, nor have the messages spoken been available. My SP asked one time for the transcript of one of the addresses and was told they were not made available. This, of course, could change. There are a bunch of Internet comments from E. Ballard's presentation, so maybe that one will go up and some point to clear up confusion.

Also would like to know if there is going to be a replay, or if this broadcast will become publicly available to download / review.

These types of broadcasts have NO precedence for being available after-the-fact, to this date they have never been publicly available to download / review. It is also not anything 'special' these kinds of broadcasts have been happening for decades. Stake Conferences have a very particular format on a 2 year repeating cycle. There is 1 broadcast from SLC (like this one with E. Ballard) (sat session led by SP) then one with an Area Authority, then one led by the Stake President, then one with a General Authority.

There has been a caveat lately that 'regional' or 'area' 'special' conferences are held at times in addition to stake conference that are broadcasts.

And, to this point-in-time, they have not been made available publicly afterwords for download / review.

Could something change for this one? Unlikely, but time will tell.

There's a brief summary of Elder Ballard's remarks in this article from the Deseret News. But I doubt that these sorts of regional conferences will be widely covered this way and I also doubt that downloads will become available. A few years ago I listened to an episode of "Conversations" on the Mormon Channel featuring Elder Oaks. He talked about how he often prefaces his talks to Stake conferences by telling the people that if they plan to plaster their summaries of his talk on the Internet he will give a different talk than he would otherwise like to give. Yes, there are times when an Apostle wants to give specific remarks to a specific audience and not to the general population. Here is the full episode of "Conversations" with Elder Oaks and his wife.

That peculiar cycle changed beginning this year (2015) as outlined in the First Presidency letter of June 20, 2014.

Stakes now have two local stake conferences a year. The stake president presides at one and a General Authority or Area Seventy presides at the other. In addition, every other year each stake now participates in a stake conference broadcast from Church headquarters that has no Saturday meetings connected with it. The broadcast no longer replaces one of the local stake conferences.

Good news! They released the talk. Enjoy your studies. https://www.lds.org/prophets-and-apostl ... _&lang=eng
