Finding joy takes practice, work and effort, Elder Patrick Kearon of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints taught during a Worldwide Devotional for Young Adults on Sunday, February 1, 2026.

“We invite you to make one hour a week a real focus for finding joy. That sacrament hour on Sunday — let us make that the most joyful moment in the week that we can experience,” he said.

“We can’t help but be joyful when we increase faith and trust in Christ and his plan for us,” said Sister Jennifer Kearon, who joined the Apostle in inviting young adults to put faith in the foreground of their lives.

For the live broadcast, nearly 17,000 young adults from throughout Utah gathered in the Conference Center in Salt Lake City, a setting which Elder Kearon described as “cozy in the most gargantuan and enormous sort of way.”

“It felt like sitting in a living room with an Apostle, almost like I was sitting face to face with Elder and Sister Kearon,” said Bryson Newswander of Hyde Park, Utah, after the devotional. “It was just a pretty neat experience for me, and I loved that feeling.”
