The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has released an implementation guide to help members and leaders prepare for the changes to the Sunday class meeting schedule that begin on September 6, 2026.
The changes that the First Presidency announced on March 30, 2026, include weekly 25-minute Sunday School, Relief Society, elders quorum, Young Women and Aaronic Priesthood quorum meetings and youth lessons. Also announced was a youth curriculum based on an updated “For the Strength of Youth: A Guide for Making Choices.”
According to the guide, “This is more than a schedule change; it is an invitation to joyful, Christ-centered worship—renewing our home-centered, Church-supported pattern and strengthening covenant belonging.”
Implementation guide
Instructions for implementing the new Sunday class schedule on September 6 are found in a newly released implementation guide. Videos will be available in August at Sunday.ChurchofJesusChrist.org.© 2026 by Intellectual Reserve, Inc. All rights reserved.
