A g ood story, but is SLC , which has deep religious divisions, the perfect place for the Ulster boy's learning experience apart from what they learn of each other?

Might be ideal. Sometimes it's easier to see those divisions and learn from them if you're not already part of it. I did a study abroad stint in Northern Ireland and loved it. It was kind of alarming how blasé people were about bomb scares, but I guess when stuff like that is normal, you learn to be normal about it.
I've played a few fundraisers for the Ulster Project here in the states. I really appreciate what they are doing.

ssumed from the story that these kids are with RC families and perhaps protestant families, the two divisions in Northern Ireland. There is no mention of Mormon families so my question was prompted by the thought that there might not be much real interaction between RCs or protestants and Mormons. If there isn't, which my experience living in SLC for more than 30 years taught me, is their experience a valid one outside the idea of RCs and protestant interacting there in way they might not at hom?
