Dear Family,
We
are thrilled to report that after Elder Jones arrived safely in his
mission day before yesterday here in San Jose, California. We picked
him up at the airport and he was able to do get a little rest after his
very early morning
departure from Mexico City. He ate dinner at a member’s home, followed
by an interview with me, and accompanied us to the airport to pick up
another missionary. The next day he was able to meet up with all of the
other new missionaries coming in after their
day-long flight delay, and they went out to do some missionary work
right away. Then we had dinner and a testimony meeting together at the
mission home. This morning, after orientation at the mission office,
all of the missionaries met their new companions
and went back to their areas. Elder Jones will be serving with Elder
Smith in the San Jose area.
You
should expect to hear from your missionary on his next Preparation day,
which will be Monday, August 15. Thank you for your prayers and
support, and for sharing Elder Jones with us here in the wonderful
California San Jose
Mission.
Also,
I encourage you to join the "California San Jose Mission Moms" Facebook
page, where we often post pictures and missionary updates.
With love,
Glen D. Mella
President, California San Jose Mission
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
