1. Subsidizing housing costs for couple missionaries. That seems like a positive step. As well as the increased flexibility of being able to go back and forth with "real life" when the situation demands it.

I have fond memories of the couple missionaries in my mission. Which must have been among the most demanding assignments possible. Good people that did a lot under trying circumstances that even most 19 year olds would find trying.

2. Provo Tabernacle to be rebuilt into a Temple. That's cool. Went to an organ recital there once.

3. Star Valley Temple. That's exciting, mainly because Star Valley makes up a large part of my heritage, and I have many relatives there. An elderly great-aunt, has reported, via my uncle, that the first prophecies of a temple in Star Valley were made over fifty years ago. I'm sure they are all beside themselves with excitement.
