Brothers and Sisters,

We are grateful that Comcast has been providing General Conference to our area for many years. However this upcoming and future General Conferences will not be available on Comcast. This decision is in no way aimed at the Church. We ask that you do not write or call Comcast in an effort to have them change their business decision. Church headquarters is aware of Comcast's decision.

General Conference is still available on many different media outlets. Below is a list of some of the outlets where sessions will be broadcast or streamed:

1. All meetinghouses that have satellites.

2. The Church website lds.org. Available in 16 languages.

3. BYUTV (English only)

4. Facebook.com/LDS (English only)

5. Dish, DirectTV and other satellite subscribers can review availability at Bonneville.info

6. Mormonchannel.org (English only)

7. BYUTV International, byutvint.org. (English, Spanish, and Portuguese)

Also, for your information the last session at the temple on Saturday, Sept 28 will be at noon. The temple will be closed on Saturday, Oct 5.

Sincerely,

Richmond VA Stake Presidency
