Dear Brother and Sister Hope,
We were very excited to welcome Elder Hope at the airport in Porto after his long flight from the MTC. We are very pleased to have your son serving in the Portugal Porto Mission with us. We are grateful for all your efforts in raising such a worthy son and for your sacrifices in sending him here to serve the Lord as a full-time missionary.
When we arrived home from the airport, we had dinner and I interviewed each of the 9 new missionaries. Following the interviews and a testimony meeting, the missionaries slept at the mission home. After a morning of orientation and training, the missionaries had lunch with their new companions and then headed out to their assigned areas to work. We have prayerfully chosen the best trainers possible for the new missionaries. Your son’s new companion is Elder Brown from Idaho, and they are serving in the Viseu Second Ward, a little over an hour south of Porto.
Please know that Sister Walton and I feel our greatest responsibility is the spiritual, emotional, and physical well being of our missionaries. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.
With love and gratitude,
President and Sister Walton
