The twice-annual conference kicked off Saturday without anyone attending in person and top leaders sitting some 6 feet apart inside an empty room viewed via live-stream as the faith takes precautions to avoid the spread of the coronavirus. It is the first conference without a crowd since World War II, when wartime travel restrictions were in place. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)

SALT LAKE CITY - In a story April 4, 2020, about The Church of Jesus Christs of Latter-day Saints’ conference, The Associated Press erroneously reported that church membership increased in 2019 for the first time since 2012. It should have said the annual rate of membership growth increased in 2019 for the first time since 2012.
