However, all youth in our stake who will be turning 14 by December 31, 2024 should plan to attend an FSY session. In a letter from the church dated September 7th, “We encourage every eligible youth to participate and hope that parents and leaders will give high priority to preparing youth through stake FSY activities held before and after the conference.” The letter said. “We know this experience has the potential to bless the youth, their families and their classes and quorums.” Please follow the link as it will answer most of the questions. answers-to-questions-and-timeline-for-fsy-conferences-2024
