Your October 2015 General Conference Activity Packet

UPDATE: I am struggling to process my emotions with the news of Elder Richard G. Scott's passing. On the one hand, I will miss his tender conference messages; but on the other hand, I am confident that he revels in his reunion with his cherished wife. I just updated the General Conference activity packet to recognize the change in the Quorum of the Twelve that Elder Scott's death creates.

Weather is not so much a missionary's friend.

Conference is now less than two weeks away which means it is probably time to roll out my General Conference activity packet. (Download your printable packet here. Or click here for the packet in Portuguese, translated by the talented Dani Queiroz de Souza.)


In addition to the packet, let me also encourage you to take advantage of the Mormon Cartoonist Activity Page Newsletter. The newsletter is delivered to your inbox every Friday and includes a printable activity page for use during sacrament meeting, Family Home Evening, primary, or General Conference. It's completely free!

There are also a number of iOS apps to assist parents of youngsters to make conference more bearable. Please consider downloading LDS Coloring Book, LDS Laughs, LDS Scripture Heroes, and the Book of Mormon Adventure App on your iProducts.

Or if apps aren't your thing, you can always buy the Puzzle Book for LDS Kids or Now That I am Baptized at most LDS bookstores.

    Thank you for the General Conference Packet! It is nice to have things specific to this session. Our Primary plans to make Conference Packets to take home this Sunday. I also signed up for your newsletter.

    We always love your packets and reviews! Crazy questions...about to print for our Primary...but wondering if you plan on editing now that Elder Scott has passed away? If not, that is fine, just wondering.

    Thankyouthankyouthankyou!!! I printed these out for my kiddos and also put them in the Conference bags I bring to the ladies I Visit Teach. Normally I just put together some random pages from different sites...but this was so much easier to have a bunch of fun stuff all-in-one. Thanks!!!

    Thank you so much for sharing this packet!
    May I translate it into Korean and share it with members in Korea? I would love to do it if you could grant permission!

    By far my favorite conference packet! Thank you for making it! One tiny suggestion- I'd love to see 1 more page for the other speakers - various 70s and RS, YW, and/or Primary leadership that also speak.

    Will be using in Hong Kong this weekend--because of the time difference, we have it the week after the live broadcast. Thank you!
