Due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, For the Strength of Youth (FSY) conferences scheduled to be held in the U.S. and Canada in 2020 have been postponed until 2021. Stakes invited to attend FSY conferences in 2020 will now attend in 2021. An updated schedule of FSY conferences to be held in the U.S. and Canada in 2021–23 can be found here.
All participant payments for FSY registration fees will be automatically refunded on or before April 30, 2020. The refund will be processed on the card used for payment of the fees when registering. If the card used at registration is no longer valid, the participant will receive a refund check mailed to the address associated with their registration. Some credit card processors may take up to 14 days after the refund is processed to post the refund to the card account.
Outside of the U.S. and Canada, Area Presidencies will provide guidance on whether FSY conferences will be held. These decisions will be made in accordance with COVID-19 guidelines established by governments in their communities and countries. Additional information about FSY conferences is available at FSY.ChurchofJesusChrist.org.
All leaders should continue to abide by the direction given March 12, 2020, by the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles—namely, that all public gatherings of Church members, including branch, ward, and stake activities, are temporarily suspended worldwide.
