Multiple Church leaders spoke during the October 2026 general conference about how temple covenants connect members to Christ and extend blessings across generations, Church News reports. The addresses emphasized temple worship as central to Latter-day Saint religious practice.

The conference talks come as the Church accelerates temple construction worldwide, with over 350 temples announced, under construction, or operating. Temple attendance and covenant-making have long been presented as requirements for the highest degree of salvation in LDS theology.
