Reason #21 - Seminary
When Steve Young went to seminary one morning with a brother and sister he was stopped by the police. It was early in the morning (about 5:30 I believe is what he said in his account) and the policeman couldn't understand what any group of teenagers would be doing up so early in the AM unless it meant trouble, so when Steve Young told him they were going to church, he felt (the policeman) that he needed to follow him to make sure. Sure enough, there was a church class going on this early in the morning. Seminary takes place at differant times depending on where you are from, but the purpose is to teach gospel principles and feed our youth spiritually during the day. It is believed that this will often give our youth a good start (or ending) to their day and it will bring them closer to their Father in Heaven and the Savior through studying the scriptures. As for the policeman...he came back occassionally to check on the kids and listen to the lesson's and eventually joined the church.
