The "Together in Christ" Utah Area YSA Conference 2025 will once again bring thousands of young single adult members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from across Utah to Salt Lake City. They will gather together for this three-day event filled with devotionals, breakout sessions, concerts, socializing activities and even speed dating. Conferences like this are not the only places these members are gathering. Around the world, gathering places are being formed by the Church to help single members ages 18 to 35 and their friends participate in wholesome activities and experiences that bring them closer to one another and to God. In this episode of the Church News podcast, Church News editor Ryan Jensen is joined by Sarah Kellar, the creative director of this year's Utah Area YSA Conference, and event co-chairs and YSAs Sienna Jenson and James Fetzer. They share insights into how events and places like these strengthen young adults, both spiritually and socially, as these programs and more draw them "Together in Christ." The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Hosts Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of the Church News, and Church News reporter Mary Richards share unique views of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith. With each episode, listeners are asked to embark on a journey to learn from one another and ponder, “What do I know now?” because of the experience. Produced by KellieAnn Halvorsen.
