Your Missionary Has Arrived!

First Letter from Christopher's Mission President:

March 29, 2016
Sister Toone and I wanted to let you know that your son, Elder Grover, has arrived safely at the Arizona Tempe Mission Home. Attached you will find a photo that we thought you might enjoy: your missionary with Sister Toone and me.

We are so pleased to have Elder Grover serving in the Arizona Tempe Mission. Monday is Preparation Day at which time he will let you know his mailing address, the Zone and District to which he is assigned, and the name of his Trainer.

As we met with Elder Grover we stressed the principles of obedience, hard work and worthiness.  This mission holds great potential for each missionary assigned.  The members are strong and love these great Elders and Sisters.  You can be assured they, and we, will do all possible to watch over your son.  It is a very special responsibility we feel toward our missionaries.  We want to see them enjoy a happy and successful mission.

Our missionaries have permission to Skype or telephone their families twice per year: on Mothers’ Day and at Christmas.  If you need to get a message to your son, or if you have any questions, please call us directly
.  We do want the missionaries to receive letters and e-mails from home on a regular basis, encouraging them in their proselyting efforts.

Thank you for raising a son who has a desire to serve the Lord.


Sincerely yours,
