Word from Pres Humphrey



Dear Brother and Sister Oldroyd:
Sister Humphrey and I had the great pleasure of welcoming your daughter, Hermana Oldroyd, to the Chile Concepción Mission. After we met her at the airport when she arrived on Tuesday, we enjoyed lunch together with the other missionaries. 

We held an orientation and Hermana Oldroyd met her first companion, Hermana Gonzales, who will train her to be a missionary. They will be laboring in the sector of Lirquen and located in the zone of Penco. 
       
 A mission is a wonderful experience filled with challenge and success that strengthens the testimony and spirituality of each missionary. The greatest support you as a family can give your daughter during her time as a missionary is that of uplifting letters. Missionaries look forward with great anticipation to each letter from home. In addition to using email, you can send packages and letters to our address. The U.S. Postal Service and the Correos de Chile do a good job of delivering packages.

 You may also send letters (and only letters taped shut; no envelopes) via the "pouch.

We encourage each of our missionaries to write to their parents each week. Please let me know if a reminder to her is needed.

We invite you to look at our blog.  www.chileconcepcionmission.blogspot.com

 It will be our privilege to work closely with Hermana  Oldroyd as she serves here in Chile.  We are blessed to have her join us in this mission and know that she will have many life changing experiences as she proclaims the gospel of Jesus Christ. Thank you for your support and for sharing your daughter with us.
Sincerely,
Neall Weston Humphrey
