This Easter season, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are encouraged to bring friends, family and neighbors to a one-hour Palm Sunday worship service in their local chapels on March 29, 2026. The following week (April 4–5), all are invited to watch general conference to celebrate Easter and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
The invitations come at the end of a video in which each member of the First Presidency shares a brief testimony of Jesus Christ and His love for us. The video and their individual testimonies are below.
President D. Todd Christofferson
“Our Heavenly Father loves us perfectly. Because of this love, He ‘gave his only begotten Son that … [we might] have everlasting life.’ As we focus during this Easter season on the life, ministry, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, let us remember that He is our perfect Advocate and Redeemer. Because of His atoning sacrifice, we may experience immortality and eternal life hereafter as well as His love, peace, and joy now.”
President Henry B. Eyring
“Jesus Christ broke the bands of death. As a result, every one of Heavenly Father’s children will rise again in a perfected, resurrected body that will never die. This sure promise can turn the sorrow of losing a loved one into hope, filling our hearts with happy anticipation of reunion. Because of His sacrifice, we will all be resurrected and can be purified in Him.”
President Dallin H. Oaks
“This Easter season, we testify that Jesus Christ is risen. He lives. He is the Way. Jesus Christ’s atoning sacrifice and Resurrection are the ultimate evidence of God’s love. He called us His friends and declared: ‘Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.’ His Atonement is a universal gift made possible by His love and the love of the Father.”
