I don't know if the signators to the announcement really think this way or are just trying to kiss up to Rusty and the gang:
An announcement letter of a June 09, 2019 event was sent out dated April 10, to Stake, Mission and Temple authorities in and around Orlando, FL, over the signatures of the three men who constitute the North America Southeast Area Presidency. (???)
Here's the part that gets me:
"In order to prepare spiritually for this memorable and historic event with the Lord’s Prophet, we encourage you to
1)Feast daily on the words of the Christ in the Book of Mormon;
2)Attend the temple on behalf of one of your deceased ancestors; and
3)Express your gratitude to our Heavenly Father for this remarkable opportunity in your personal and family prayers."
So these guys, either sincerely or kissing-uppily, want all the members to thank ghawd in their personal and family prayers for the "remarkable opportunity" to sit in a big arena (the Amway center is where the Orlando Magic play) and gaze upon the prophet and listen to his dulcet tones!
And you know that at some point in the evening's proceedings, they are all going to stand and sing, We thank thee oh ghawd for a prophet...
On a side note, when you visit the Amway Center's website and look at their calendar of events, Florence + The Machine is there on June 8th, and nothing is mentioned for the 9th. Maybe that will change, but you'd think they'd already have it booked, so I'm guessing that the Amway Center doesn't think it's worth noting to the general public.

ETA: I tried to post a link to a copy of the letter, but RfM rejected the website's name.
