Dear Family,
We are thrilled to report that after a day delay with flight cancellation, Elder Barker arrived safely in his mission yesterday here in San Jose, California. We picked him up at the airport and he was able to do some missionary work right away. He ate dinner at the mission home, followed by an interview with me. This morning, after orientation at the mission office, all of the missionaries met their new companions and went back to their areas. Elder Barker will be serving with Elder Methvin in the Hollister area.
You should expect to hear from your missionary on his next Preparation day, which will be Monday, August 15. Thank you for your prayers and support, and for sharing Elder Barker with us here in the wonderful California San Jose Mission.
Also, I encourage you to join the "California San Jose Mission Moms" Facebook page, where we often post pictures and missionary updates.
With love,
Glen D. Mella
