What Is Institute of Religion?
Institute of religion is FUN! It is also a safe haven from the pressures, trials, and challenges of the world. Institute is concerned with education for eternity and provides an opportunity for students to be touched and nurtured by the Spirit. Regular weekday classes are conducted on a variety of religious subjects, and students are provided an opportunity to associate spiritually, socially, and culturally with others of similar ideals. Of those who graduate from the institute of religion, 96 percent receive their temple endowments. Of that group, 98 percent of those who marry will do so in the temple. Additionally, 96 percent of young men who graduate from institute serve a full-time mission.
