Mike--

I actually think that the number of sister missionaries will explode. If they can go on a mission at 19 and be home at 20, still young and "in the zone' of being at college.

More importantly I think it shows how much the church values sister missionaries and their contribution to the work. This will reverberate in the quality and training of women in the church for many years to come. It is a tribute to the quality of young women there are in the church where they are ready.

As the father of a 13 year old girl who was excited at the prospect of only being 6 years away from her mission it was fun to see and exciting for me.
