Dear Elder Garner´s Family:
It is my pleasure to inform you of a
recent leadership assignment given to your son, Elder Garner. He has been
assigned to serve as a district leader in the Mexico Monterrey West
Mission. Elder Garner has demonstrated fine leadership
qualities and a strong testimony of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
A district leader sets an example for the
missionaries in his district through his study of the scriptures and the
gospel, obedience, hard work, proselyting skills, and other aspects of
missionary work. He carries a full proselyting load in his assigned
area and strives to baptize weekly. He supervises, teaches, and
inspires the missionaries during district meetings and companion
exchanges. He also interviews baptismal candidates. He practices
Christ like love, looking after the well-being of missionaries in his
district. He demonstrates effective planning, and teaches how to
work with local priesthood leaders and members. He also follows up
with the missionaries, holding them accountable for their efforts. We
depend on our district leaders to motivate the other missionaries and to be
good examples, setting their own goals higher and “going the extra
mile.” A conscientious and hard-working district leader has an
immense impact on the entire zone, in fact it has been said that the success of
a mission depends on its district leaders.
Sister McArthur and I appreciate
Elder Garner, for his efforts to carry forward the work of the Lord in
this new assignment. We express our appreciation to you for
having raised such a fine young man. One who loves the gospel, loves
the Lord, and serves him with all of his heart, might, mind and
strength. It has been my pleasure to get to know him and to work
with him in this great and important work of the latter days.
May the Lord bless you while your son is
away serving in this marvelous work.
