Elders and Sisters,
We are the Assistants to President Monson in the South Carolina Columbia Mission! We would like to formally welcome you into our mission.
We are so excited to meet each of you when you arrive here in South Carolina, a few days from now! We wanted to give you an idea of what your first few days in the mission field will look like.
Wednesday, September 16th - We will pick you up from the airport with President and Sister Monson and bring you to the West Columbia stake center where we will have an orientation. Elders, please wear a suit. President will interview each of you either Wednesday night or Thursday morning. You will spend the night in a hotel.
Thursday, September 17th - We will pick you up from the hotel and bring you to the Irmo building. An incoming orientation will be hosted by our senior couples. You will then be paired with your trainer and leave for your new area!
We will ask you to do a couple of things so that your first night in South Carolina runs as smoothly as possible.
First, please arrange your luggage so that all of the things you need for your first night are in one suitcase. With so many of you, this is a must! This would include toiletries, a set of workout clothes for the morning, personal study supplies and clothing for the next day. Putting these things in one suitcase will allow us to load and unload luggage easily. This will make it possible to have all that you will need for your first night in the field.
The Lord is hastening His work, and you are each a big part of this effort! We testify that this is the most marvelous work that you will ever take part in during your time here upon the earth. We are so excited for you to join us! Travel safely.
Love,
The Assistants
