Online Sunday School Classes in Your Native Language
Beginning November 16, 2025
Brothers and Sisters,
Our area continues to welcome many new members from all over the world who are beginning their journey on the covenant path. To support those whose first language is not English, the Utah Area Presidency is introducing online Sunday School classes taught in four languages: Chinese (Mandarin), French, Marshallese, and Haitian Creole.
These classes will be held via Zoom on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month from 5:00β6:00 p.m.
These classes are designed to help members learn the gospel in their native language while still fully participating in their local YSA ward, under local priesthood keys. All participants should continue attending sacrament meeting and regular Sunday meetings in their assigned YSA ward, where translation may also be available if needed.
Important Notes:
These classes are not for practicing or learning a new language.
They are not meant to replace in-person Sunday meetings in your native language unless you have physical limitations or another compelling need.
Bishop approval is required before attending an online class.
Once a bishop approves participation, members may join using the information below:
