At a Seminary Celebration in 2012, Elder Boyd K Packer taught the youth that they are in enemy territory. Seminary is a weapon to be used to fight off the evil the enemy uses to destroy youth and thwart them from achieving their eternal destiny.
At the same celebration, President Henry B. Eyring said, "“Our goal is to teach and learn eternal truth in such a way that a child
of God can choose to know and to love our Heavenly Father and His
Beloved Son. To you remarkable young men and women who are students, I
encourage you—no matter the challenges you face—to attend seminary.
Hunger and thirst to know and to do that which the Savior taught. In so
doing the Spirit of the Lord will be your constant companion, and He
will strengthen you for the battles you will face and the great work you
will perform in families and in the Church.”
Referring to the Seminary program, Hannah Corbett (one of the 2015 Seminary Graduates) stated, "It helped me know that the scriptures are true and that they were written for me."
Congratulations Connor Tucker, Erin Atkinson and Hannah Corbett on your your accomplishment.-- What you learned in Seminary will protect you throughout your life and will help you make wise choices.
Hopefully all the youth in our ward will want to participate in seminary and hopefully all parents will encourage this participation.
