General Session. 3. This does not mean that the quarterly conference will be supplanted by auxiliary conventions, but it does mean that one of these conferences will be devoted to the consideration of the duties and purposes of the vari- ous auxiliary associations. The presidency of the stake will have charge as usual and all necessary official business of the stake receive attention. In as much as the pro- gram of these group conventions contemplates the attendance of all stake and ward workers of six auxiliary organizations, it will be necessary to make special arrangements to accommodate the various groups who must assemble at the same time in various meetings. All presiding authorities and priest- hood of stake and wards are invited to attend and so participate as to in- crease their understanding and interest in all auxiliary endeavor. It is expected that a representative of each General Board will be in attendance to promote the interests of his or her respective organization.
