Another Letter from the Mission Office

So, I'm still waiting [on pins and needles] for an email from Zach on his first official P-day in Japan, but in the meantime I received this email today from President Wada (the mission president). It is great to know where Zach is serving and who he is with!

Dear Brother and Sister Tolen:

Your son arrived in the Japan Tokyo South Mission on December 2, 2014, in good spirits and ready to commence his proselyting assignment. We had a wonderful time with him.

Elder Tolen has been assigned to work with Elders Squire and Elder Livingston and they are serving in an area called Hodogaya. Your son can receive his mail at the following address (Mission Home address):

Elder Zachary David Tolen

Japan Tokyo South Mission

1-7-7 Kichijoji, Higashi-cho

Musashino-shi, Tokyo 180-0002

Japan

Attached is a picture of your son with Sister Wada and me, of himself, and a group picture of the new missionaries, trainers, and Assistants. We have also included a map showing the locations of the various areas in the mission. You can use it as a personal record of his assignments.

By the time you receive this letter, Elder Tolen should be adjusted to his new proselyting area. The positive sustaining support he gets from you at home will be a great blessing to him. May the Lord bless you and your family as you share in your son’s mission experience.

Sincerely,

President Takashi Wada
