We have talked a lot about Spiritual and Secular learning. We have learned through the scriptures and living prophets that both are essential to our happiness and success in life. For now most of the spiritual learning you get takes place in personal and family scripture study, family home evening and church but when you are in ninth grade you will get to go to Seminary. Seminary is like "spiritual" school. Depending on where we live you will get to go to seminary every school day and the subject you study will be the gospel of Jesus Christ. Seminary is awesome! If you are careful and wise about your seminary experience it will prepare you for many things. It will prepare your heart and your mind for learning at school. It will help prepare you to resist temptation. It will help prepare you to serve a full time mission. It will help you prepare for college learning. Seminary will help you become the person you want to be.
Here is a quote about Seminary that I love, "The way to become the type of person you are isn't by just listening to or being able to explain gospel principles. Its to have them in your heart and to use them when you deal with your friends or when you face challenging situations."
How do you feel about attending Seminary? Do you think it can REALLY help you become the person you want to be?
1. When I think about attending Seminary I feel... unsure because I don't know what to expect.

I know it can be hard to imagine something you have never experienced but that dos not mean it has to be scary. Lots of people you know and love went to Seminary and I bet if you asked any of them they would tell you it is something to be excited about.
I LOVED seminary. It was hard sometimes because I had to get up so early in the morning but it was awesome! In fact, I loved it so much I hope I get to be a seminary teacher someday so I get to do it all over again!
Hi Spence,
So how much did Mom really love Seminary? I guess enough for her to be called as the new Seminary teacher! Some times Heavenly Father know what we want and knows what we need. I know that Mom will be a great teacher to both you and her Seminary students.
love, Grampa
