The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints held this year’s Church Music Festival on Saturday, Nov. 11, in the Tabernacle on Temple Square in Salt Lake City.
The annual event typically features original compositions by members, but this year, for the first time, it featured the culture of a particular country.
This year the festival highlighted Kenya, and the program included a music video produced in the country as well as over 500 performers from a variety of nations.
