Mormon missionaries take transit
In Utah, Mormon missionaries are trained in Provo but fly to their eventual destinations out of Salt Lake City. In the past, that meant a 45 minute ride in a van to the airport.
But ever since Frontrunner commuter rail opened up a year ago it has grown as the LDS Church’s transportation method of choice for departing missionaries. Here are a couple of pictures, snapped by my wife Monday afternoon. These missionaries happen to be on their way to Boise to get passports.
I got on Frontrunner with dozens of Sisters from Temple Square who were going to the art show at BYU a couple weeks ago. Good to see.
