Dear   Family,

Sister Peterson and I are delighted to let you know that your  has arrived in Taiwan safely and is doing well.  The day following arrival was spent in orientation, training, and getting to know  .  We had a wonderful lunch with the new missionaries and their training companions.

I had the opportunity of interviewing   and am very impressed with  desire to serve.  Thank you for sending us such a wonderful young person.  Truly,  is a fine example of an enthusiastic servant of the Lord.  We send our love to you and promise to watch after your  as though  were our own.  Sister Peterson and I have been called to lead this mission by ministering to our missionaries.  We have been praying for them since they received their call to work in the Taipei Taiwan Mission.

The missionary work is very focused.  Missionaries can call home once a week on P-day.  We also suggest they write home once a week to stay in close touch.  In addition, I strongly suggest that you diligently write weekly to keep in touch with your missionary as well.  If an emergency arises please call the Mission Office, (Tel: 011-886-2-2393-3285 direct from the US) and leave a message, or contact us through the mission e-mail address, (2019353@churchofjesuschrist.org).

The monthly money that the missionaries receive is sufficient for their needs.  Please do not send extra money for your  unless requested.  If money needs to be sent to your , we suggest you open a bank account and send your missionary an ATM or debit card.  This provides fast and easy access to money from the many teller machines available in Taiwan.

May the Lord bless you and your family through the service of your missionary .

Yours sincerely,

President Michael L. Peterson
