Dear
Parents of our wonderful missionaries,
We
just want you to know that your missionary has arrived safe and sound! We love
this picture taken right after they got off the plane and met their companions.
Although they are jet-lagged they bring a wonderful spirit and we are excited
to get to know them and begin serving together. We spent the afternoon
interviewing them and we must say they are a very impressive set of Elders and
Sisters. They have gone to their new areas with their companions and will
return to the mission home next week when they can stay awake and we will spend
a day together in training.
Cambodia is
a wonderful country and we feel the blessings of our Father in Heaven being
poured out on these people as the church continues to grow here. In the next
few months as your missionary’s language skills increase and he or she
begins to personally know the people in their areas we are confident that their
excitement and love for missionary work will only grow. We already love your
missionary, we were overwhelmed with their expressions of faith and excitement
today and we promise you that we will love and treat each of them as one of our
own. Thank you for trusting our Father in Heaven enough to send
your child to this part of the world and know of our confidence that God
watches over his missionaries here and blesses them every day.
May
God bless you and your family as you continue this wonderful adventure,
Love,
President Jim and Sister Char Christensen
