"We all know that not getting up at the appointed hour on your mission or being in violation of the dress code here at BYU–Hawaii is a minor transgression," began Craig Earnshaw at BYU–Hawaii's devotional on Tuesday, November 24, 2009, at the Cannon Activities Center.

Hinckley, "A Time of New Beginnings," Ensign, May 2000, 87). Lane’s speech, "He Inviteth All to Come unto Him," touched on the fundamentals of tolerance toward other faiths.

In an October address at BYU–Idaho, Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles hailed the bravery of Oyun Altangerel, a Mongolian woman who paved the way to religious freedom in her country.
