Today, I received an email from the Mission President and his wife. It was so nice to see some pictures of the young men and women who arrived. They got 29 new missionaries! Wow!
Dear Missionary Parents,
How thrilled Sister Bartlett and I were to greet
your son and to welcome him as a full-time missionary in the Idaho Boise
Mission. What a blessing it will be to our mission to have him serving
here to the assigned field of labor.
After arriving at the mission office and conducting
a brief orientation of the mission, I had the opportunity of
interviewing your son in an effort to become better acquainted with him
and to feel of his spirit. As a result of this interview,
I felt impressed to assign your son, as a companion, to one of the most
obedient, most skilled, and hardest working missionary in the mission.
You can be assured that this companion is one of our mission’s very
best. His trainer is Elder Carlson, and they
are currently serving in Boise.
We are confident that your son will have a very
positive experience while serving in the Idaho Boise Mission. We know
he will strengthen his skills, increase his knowledge and testimony of
the gospel, and establish an increased measure
of love for all of our Heavenly Father’s children he will assist in
teaching.
We have attached pictures of your missionary with Sister Bartlett and myself, also one with his trainer.
May the Lord’s choicest blessings be with you as you sustain your son and pray for his continued welfare.
Faithfully yours,
President Randall D. Bartlett
Idaho Boise Mission
So he'll be staying in Boise with Elder Carlsen. I was also able to find a few pictures from a Facebook post this afternoon. They are all smiles!
What a great way to end my day.
