(Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) Two missionaries walk past the Conference Center in Salt Lake City just before The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints holds General Conference on Saturday, April 4, 2020. The area would usually be packed with tens of thousands of conferencegoers. But because of the coronavirus pandemic, no public attendance is permitted. In fact, the conference is coming from a "small auditorium" in the Church Office Building.
