Mission President Letter (February 19, 2010)

Dear Family,

   

    Your wonderful daughter, Sister Pedersen, has arrived safely and happily in the mission field. Despite a long day of travel, she arrives in great spirits.

    She is a terrific young lady and will be a blessing to everyone with whom she serves and those she finds and teaches. Both Sister Newman and I were most impressed by your daughters pleasing combination of faith, charm and humility.

    Sister Pedersen has been assigned to serve in the Kingston Ward in Southeast Georgia, with a determined and obedient companion, Sister Johnson.  They will be great!

    Thanks for sharing your precious daughter with us and the Lord.

       

                                Faithfully,

                                President Newman

P.S.   I grew up outside Portland.  Go Oregon!
