Are the Mass Drone Sightings part of Signs in the Heavens?

 WHAT are Latter-day Saint Church members to ponder about the mass drone (or whatever they are) sightings at the end of 2024?

 Could they be at least a minor part of the latter-day prophecy regarding signs in the heavens?

Doctrine and Covenants section 45:

38 "Even so it shall be in that day when they shall see all these things, then shall they know that the hour is nigh.

39 And it shall come to pass that he that feareth me shall be looking forth for the great day of the Lord to come, even for the signs of the coming of the Son of Man.

40 And they shall see signs and wonders, for they shall be shown forth in the heavens above, and in the earth beneath."

  Scriptures often have multiple meanings, or layers of fulfillment.

  There have also been UFO sightings for decades, as well as a steady increase in airline travel too. The skies are not empty and haven't been for over a century.

Is a One-hour Church Block Meeting Time on the Horizon?

 

IS a one-hour LDS Church meeting block time coming?

Several second-hand reports about a Syracuse, Utah ward currently (as of December 2024) conducting a pilot program on a 60-minute total meeting on Sunday makes one wonder so.

Apparently, the first Sunday is just a one-hour fast meeting and then the other Sundays of the month include passing the sacrament and a 30-minute or less weekly of rotation of the auxiliary meetings afterward.

While such a meeting reduction is possible, it is the ramifications, and the reasons for it that are the most important. For example, is the world going to erode so much in the coming months or few years that such a meeting streamline is necessary?

The Church was ahead of the Chinese virus epidemic, thanks to inspiration and one can assume the same for future calamities. And, the world is definitely in the end times now.
