Dear Family,
Well, it is coming to the end of my first day. It was pretty good. I am with three other Elders. Two from Utah and the other, which is my companion, he’s from Portland.
We had a few orientations, bore some testimonies and learned how to do things on the mission. I was told by the Branch President that my Dad will be with me and helping me the entire time. Since he is doing the same thing in Heaven. That was really special to me.
Not much to say, the food is good and the cash I have has come in handy.
Thank you for supporting me and getting me here.
Love, Chas.
