Dear Brother and Sister Price:
We were so delighted to meet your
daughter as she arrived in our mission on Monday and to be able to spend time
orienting her to this new phase of her service. On Tuesday morning we had our
transfer meeting which included instructions to the missionaries, inspirational
talks, some heartfelt testimonies and assignments to their first companion and
area of service. Following the meeting, Sister Price and her companion traveled
to Augusta, Georgia to her first assignment.
We know she will prosper here in the days
ahead and assure you that we will do everything in our power to help her find
joy in her service and success in her labors. Your weekly emails will do much
to support Sister Price as she labors in this wonderful work. Sister Price will
be able to email home on Preparation Day which is each Monday. Just a reminder,
when Monday happens to fall on a national holiday, those who use the public
libraries will not have access to a computer, therefore, they usually email on
Tuesday instead.
Your missionary is about to make an
eternal difference in the lives of others. We hope you will be encouraged and
comforted by this quote from President Lorenzo Snow. “There is no mortal man
that is so much interested in the success of an elder (sister) when he is
preaching the Gospel as the Lord that sent him to preach to the people who are
the Lord’s children” (Millenial Star, July 16, 1894, p. 451).
We would like to take this opportunity to
thank you for all you have done to prepare Sister Price to faithfully serve a
mission. We look forward to getting to know her as we serve our Heavenly Father
here in the Georgia Macon Mission.
Attached please find a photo of Sister
Price with Sister Cottle and me. We are extremely pleased to have your daughter
here serving with us.
With great appreciation and
love,
Brent T Cottle
President
Georgia Macon Mission
