It Takes Faith to Show Up | Latter-day Saint Silicon Valley Singles Conference 2026

Let’s be real — it takes a little faith to walk into a Latter-day Saint singles conference where you may not know anyone.

You have to have faith that you’ll find a parking spot, faith that you won’t end up sitting by yourself, and especially faith that when someone asks, “So, tell me about yourself?” your mind won’t suddenly go completely blank. 😝

And yet, some of God’s greatest blessings begin with something very simple: showing up.

Our theme this year is Connected in Christ, and that connection often starts with a willingness to step outside our comfort zones.

You may not know who you’ll meet, what friendships will form, or what unexpected conversations may happen. Maybe you’ll make a new friend. Maybe you’ll discover someone who shares your oddly specific interests. Maybe you’ll have a conversation that lifts your spirit at exactly the right moment. And yes — maybe you’ll meet someone who makes you especially glad you came. 😊

So bring a little faith, bring your smile, say a prayer, and come ready to connect.

When we put ourselves in places where faith, friendship, and Christ-centered connection can grow, we never know what beautiful things God may have waiting for us.

Sometimes the first step toward connection is simply showing up.
