Dear Family,

The missionaries serving in the Florida Jacksonville Mission are meeting for a special Christmas Devotional on Thursday, December 13, 2012. President and Sister Barry would like to request that you (and other members of the family who so desire) write a Christmas letter to your son. We will distribute the letter(s) to him at that special Christmas event.

Please send all correspondence so that our Mission Office will receive it no later thanFriday, November 30, 2012. You have the option of sending it via email to   (Contact Spring or Susan for email address) where we will print it and put it in an envelope with your missionary’s name, or you may send it by mail addressed to your missionary, (Contact Spring or Susan for snail mail address). Because the Mission Office receives mail for individual missionaries occasionally, it is very important that the envelope containing any special letter(s) to him is labeledChristmas Letter and has the Elder ‘s name on it. We do not want one missionary left without something from his family.

This is a surprise, so please don’t tell your missionary.

We feel blessed to have the opportunity of serving with your son here in the Florida Jacksonville Mission. We thank you for sharing him with us for this short time. May the Lord’s blessings be with you and your family during this Christmas season when we celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Please reply to this email to let me know you have received it.

Sincerely,

Sister Priest

 

Note from Spring:  Sorry, I'm still wary of putting addresses out there on a public blog.  Find me on fb, email me, call me, stop by my house, whatever.  Let me know if you'd like to send Kyle a Christmas letter.  If you're in Utah, I'm sure my mom would be willing to put it in an envelope with her letter, to save on postage.  Thanks!
