2024 North Star Conference

North Star’s mission is to be a faith affirming resource for Latter-day Saints navigating sexual orientation and gender identity who desire to live in harmony with the teachings of Jesus Christ and the doctrine and values of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The 2024 North Star Conference is an invaluable resource for individuals who experience same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria and wish to live a Christ-centered life full of peace and joy. This conference is also a resource for family members, friends and Church leaders who wish to gain understanding and desire to support those who experience same-sex attraction or gender incongruence. Listen to keynote addresses, musical performances, and dozens of breakout sessions featuring church leaders, scholars, therapists, and entertainers from the Christian community. Additionally, we offer the ability to purchase conference recordings.

General sessions feature keynote speakers, including respected leaders in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints community, with relevant topics centered on the conference theme, Faith to Move Mountains.

Breakout sessions on issues relevant to each demographic group:

• SSA Men / Gay
• SSA Women / Gay
• Transgender / Gender Identity
• Couples / Spouses
• Youth
• Parents, Family and Friends
• Ecclesiastical Leaders

Breakout sessions are focused on providing tools and resources which enable individuals to cultivate inner peace, support loved ones, and live an authentic, gospel-centered life. Individuals are welcome to attend any breakout session.

Spouses, children, parents, siblings, friends, and church leaders are all invited to attend these special events.
