Dear Parent(s),

Elder Gharrett Farr Lawrence arrived safely to this mission 1 Sep 2023. After prayerful consideration, a companion will be chosen specifically for him.  We make every effort to assign only the very best missionaries to be trainers, as these first few months are critical in the life of a new missionary. Please enjoy the attached photograph -it will be emailed late this week.

During the course of his mission he will be transferred from place to place, therefore, we ask that all his mail be sent to the following address:

We are excited and grateful to have Elder Lawrence serve in the California Los Angeles Mission. Our desire is to help him succeed and magnify his calling. We will do everything possible to see that he remains healthy, actively engaged, challenged, and happy in his missionary labors. Please be assured that his welfare and happiness are of primary concern to us.

The information attached answers many of the questions frequently asked. Should you have any questions or concerns during the course of Elder Lawrence's mission, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely yours,

Mission Office Staff

Week 4 CCM - Aug 18th- Dear John

  This week has been filled with ups and downs and when the ups are up it's awesome but when the downs are down it's really hard to get through. This week was filled with so much.

In the devotional today I learned some pretty unique things and metaphors. 1) Be happy with the almosts 2) This isn't a sacrifice, this is an opportunity. 3) Control the Controllables 4) Do things intentionally. 5) Be a dry sponge 6) Be Bold!!! 7) Do and celebrate the little wins each day. 8) You can't fill your spiritual bucket if it's full, empty it out unto others so you can refill it. 9) Rise again and again. 10) without a happy, positive and uplifting mindset, you will never do well and grow. Don't have negative mindsets and enjoy this time because you can ...
