Did you know this factoid: Latter-day Saints are 2% of America. But they keep finishing FIRST in a LOT of stats:

- 69% at church every week (everyone else: 25%)
- 73% pray daily
- 72% volunteered last year — the only U.S. faith above 50%
- 89% pay a full 10% tithe

The same group a UCLA study found lives nearly a decade longer.

Smallest faith on the chart. First, on almost everything, you can't fake.

What do they know that the rest of us don't? :)

@gwowls Also, Mormon was Christian.

@Russwarne Is this why we don't have a boat?

What can a card game tell us about intelligence? The authors of a new Czech study found that the card game Dobble (also called "Spot It!") can function as an intelligence test.

Dobble is a card game that requires players to quickly identify the matching symbol in a pair of cards (see 2nd image). Examinees who completed the Dobble game faster performed better on a nonverbal matrix test, an attention test, and the Trail Making Test (which measures visual attention, processing speed, and cognitive flexibility).

Card-specific characteristics had little impact on task performance, and most examinees enjoyed playing Dobble. Therefore, Dobble is a promising task that can measure intelligence in an non-threatening way.

Today, my counselors in the First Presidency and I were grateful for the opportunity to visit the Salt Lake Temple, which has been undergoing a significant renovation since 2020.

We look forward to welcoming people from throughout the world during the Salt Lake Temple Celebration and open house, to be held from April through October 2027.

Above all, we look forward to teaching about the sacred purposes of temples throughout the world. In the temple, faithful men and women receive divine instruction, sacred responsibilities, and spiritual power.

It is in the temple that eternal covenants are made that bind us and our families to our Heavenly Father and to one another for eternity.

I feel to shout from the X rooftops that Joseph Smith is a true Prophet whom the Lord raised up and ordained, and to whom he gave keys and power to build up the kingdom of God on earth. I don't worship Joseph, but I love him and esteem him highly. My life has been blessed beyond measure, and I am so much closer to my Savior, because of the light and knowledge that was restored by God to the world through him. Joseph doesn't need me to defend him, but I will do so until my dying breath. Praise to the man!

@Zion_GPT Just the flimsy kid ones.

[Katie Warne @SingerktKatie]

@Zion_GPT They sell them at the distribution center at the temple here in Atlanta. They are still a thing.

@Sipowicz1042 @CopperMomAZ @TeeplesCY I am glad you had some good experiences. I wish you well and hope you know you would be welcomed back any time. God loves you, brother!

[Katie Warne @SingerktKatie]

@Sipowicz1042 @CopperMomAZ @TeeplesCY That's crazy. I've lived in many states and many many wards and not once have I heard anyone say "we need money" etc.... I'm sorry that happened to you. There have been many lessons on tithing but just people sharing blessings of tithing. (Which I've seen in my life!)

[Katie Warne @SingerktKatie]

@Sipowicz1042 @CopperMomAZ @TeeplesCY That's really bizarre. I've never heard of anyone in the church being "hounded for money" I believe we do agency in this church. I'm not dismissing your experience but I find it very strange. Was it the Bishop? Who was asking you for you money?

[Katie Warne @SingerktKatie]

@Sipowicz1042 @CopperMomAZ @TeeplesCY Heaven forbid we clean up after ourselves. I like doing service though.

The Book of Mormon does not contradict the Bible.
It contradicts popular interpretations of the Bible.

Those are not the same thing.

In advance of the upcoming general conference leadership session (April 2, 2026), The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced upcoming adjustments to the Sunday class meeting schedule to support members in their efforts to be lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. The adjustments will strengthen gospel learning in homes and congregations throughout the world.

Beginning September 6, 2026, the alternating weekly schedule for Sunday School and quorum or class meetings will be replaced. Under the updated schedule:

• Sunday School, Relief Society, elders quorum, Young Women and Aaronic Priesthood quorum meetings will be held each week.
• Sacrament meeting will continue to be 60 minutes, followed by brief transition periods.
• Sunday School and quorum and class meetings will each be 25 minutes.
• Primary will continue every Sunday and will be 55 minutes, held while adults and youth attend their respective classes.
• Where local circumstances necessitate, units may begin with Primary and quorum and class meetings and conclude with sacrament meeting.
