Sunday general conference: Temples are the gateway to the greatest blessings God gives

President Russell M. Nelson made a promise to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints following a detailed explanation of Priesthood keys, the blessings of the temple, and culminating with the announcement of 15 temples Sunday, which he called “the gateway to the greatest blessings God has for each of us.”

“This is why we are doing all within our power, under the direction of the Lord, to make temple blessings more accessible to members of the church,” he said in a pre-recorded talk that concluded the two-day, 194th Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which was broadcast from the Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake City to millions around the world.

What you need to know about viewing Monday’s solar eclipse

On April 8, people in Utah will be able to watch a solar eclipse, along with millions of other Americans. A solar eclipse occurs when “the silhouette of the moon completely covers the sun, leaving only the sun’s corona visible around its edges,” per the Clark Planetarium in Salt Lake City. Total solar eclipses are rare, with the next one set to occur in 2044.

For this event, the eclipse’s path of totality encompasses areas from Mexico to Maine.

While Utah does not lie on the path of totality, onlookers in Salt Lake City will experience the eclipse at near 50% totality, according to NASA’s eclipse map. The phenomenon begins at around 11:25 a.m. in Utah and will be viewable until 1:40 p.m.
