Greetings from MTC President in Guatemala (2/18/2009)




Dear Parents and Loved Ones:Your missionary arrived "safe and sound" last night and has been involved all morning at the MTC here in Guatemala --- in orientation for their next phase of training. They finally got into the classroom and have started learning more Spanish & teachings from Preach My Gospel. For proof, I've attached a foto. Sorry, it’s not a great one---but enjoy! You are no doubt very proud of your missionary. You should be!




This is a very good group of 13 missionaries who join another extraordinary group of 11 North Americans who are in their final three weeks PLUS 40 Missionaries from Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, El Salvador, Chile, Panama, and other Central American countries arrive tonight and tomorrow morning.




Your missionary has Preparation Day on Tuesdays and will be writing to you then. I know that your support and letters bless your 'missionary' a lot --- and will be greatly appreciated.In addition to email, you may choose to send letters as well through the pouch according to the instructions received in the call packet of your missionary. This is a one page 8.5X11, triple-folded, taped or sealed withthe address and stamp on the outside. (see written instructions in the call packet)Pouch Address:"POUCH" ---NAME OF YOUR MISSIONARY--- Guatemala MTC P.O. Box 30150 Salt Lake City, UT 84130-0150




For the next several weeks you can ALSO send letters, packages, or other mail to your missionary at the following address: ---Name of your Missionary---Centro de Capacitation Misional Boulevard Vista Hermosa 23-71, Zona 15Vista Hermosa 1 C.P. 01015Guatemala Ciudad, Guatemala C.A.I recommend that you don't send anything to the above MTC address after March 20th or it may not arrive before the departure of you missionary on March 31st. Anything you send after the 20th of March should be addressed to his/her mission address. Otherwise, there can be significant delay in them getting their mail because of the time it takes to forward the or have the missions drop by at their convenience and pick up and distribute mail to missionaries all over the mission.




I also invite you to go to our personal website at:www.davidachristensen.com When you get to the site, click on “Guatemala MTC”... You can then browse around or take a tour of the MTC. Within a few weeks you may find your missionary in one or more of the pictures. ENJOY!!! If you feel the need to communicate anything to me, please feel free to do so at this email address ---- mtcpresdac@gmail.com.




Thanks again for your missionary!!! We come to love these missionaries a great deal and appreciate you lending them to the Lord for this season of their lives.


Presidente David A. Christensen


Guatemala MTC
