Dear Brother and Sister Schramm,

What a pleasure it was to greet your son as he arrived in the México Monterrey West Mission! This is a picture of your missionary with us, on his first day here in the mission.

The first day included an interview with the President, some instruction and training on the basics of living and working in the México Monterrey West Mission and a couple of hours experiencing missionary service in the field. There was plenty of good food along with some activities that made it a full and exciting day. The second day your son met his trainer and spent some time getting acquainted. After a brief meeting with the President and lunch, all the missionaries were off to their new assigned areas of service. We want to let you know that we have a fun mission blog, monterreywest.weebly.com, which has lots of information and pictures of the various conferences, trainings, and activities happening in the mission. We invite you to visit it often. We also have a new mailing address for missionaries from the United States that is more secure and is delivered to the mission at least once a month. The company we’re using charges an additional $3.00 when the package arrives that is charged to the missionary. The address is:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

(Your missionary´s name)

1211 San Dario Avenue #1357

Laredo TX 78040

(Please keep your package to a size that is easily carried by missionaries on buses and the metro!)

We want you to know how much we appreciate your efforts in preparing your son to serve and your sacrifice to help make this opportunity possible for him. You will see blessings in your life and in the life of your missionary as he serves faithfully and diligently here in the México Monterrey West Mission.
