SALT LAKE CITY — The full text President Boyd K. Packer's Feb. 2 Church Educational System Fireside address is now available on the Church News web site: www.ldschurchnews.com.

During the address, President Packer asked college-age young adults worldwide to live the Word of Wisdom and stay morally pure. "We have agency," said the acting president of the Quorum of the Twelve. "What happens in our lives and in our path of eternal progress is just what we decide it to be."
