With in-laws living in Payson, I can tell you that you are exactly right, Chris. They feel that the Provo temple is, in a sense, too “big,” with the university plus the MTC plus the community surrounding it, to have that small-town feel.

My wife and I are living in Detroit, and they have the smaller temple as well. She loves the quaint feel of it, and I think Payson will have that same effect.

In reply to Chris Henrichsen. I agree. I really like how nearby communities claim ownership on these temples as well. The Cardston temple isnâ€t in Lethbridge, of course, but I still claim it as mine.

I really love seeing these small LDS communiies getting temple of their own. I think that it build a sense of ownwership when it comes to temples.
