We finally got word from the mission office (YAY!) and here is what we got:
July 17, 2013 (can you tell this letter is mostly a form letter:))
Dear Brother & Sister Garner,
We are so happy to have
Sister Garner serving in the Peru Piura Mission! She arrived eager to go to work and we are
impressed with her enthusiasm and desire to serve our Heavenly Father as a
missionary. After meeting her at the
airport we had a luncheon at the Mission Home followed by a devotional and an
interview. The following day was a
morning of training and the assigning of her trainer/companion. Trainers are chosen for their obedience,
patience, dedication and the guidance of the Holy Ghost. We know that as these two missionaries study,
pray and work together they will be blessed and guided in their service and
find joy in teaching and sharing the gospel message. We are attaching a photo
of your missionary with her new companion and us.
We are grateful to you for
sharing your daughter with us. We know
that thru hard work, obedience and prayer Sister Garner will find joy in
serving the Lord and the beautiful people of Peru. Please encourage her to share her experiences
with you and your family. Write to her
weekly and express your love, support and confidence in her. You will witness miraculous changes in her as
she learns to serve and love those with whom she works.
We know that the Gospel of
Jesus Christ brings joy and peace to all who will follow Him. We are grateful to be a part of this great
work and to serve with the wonderful young Elders and Sisters of our mission.
Sincerely,
President & Sister Rowley
Peru Piura Mission
