Day 1: An Entry From the Sister

Glad to report that the Elder Jalla has safely arrived at the MTC (Missionary Training Center)!

AND SO... it begins!

Elder Jalla will be writing a general email once a week, which I will post here on this blog by 6 pm every Tuesday night. So, watch for that.

He would love to hear from you! Even though he is far away, you are still very close to his heart just as he is close to yours. I encourage you to continue praying for him, but also to find ways to write words of love and encouragement to him whenever you miss him or think about him.

Letters sent via US postal service are the best way of communication these next two years. He only gets one hour a week to read and respond to emails. Those 60 minutes go by very fast. To make sure he gets to read what you send to him, I highly recommend the traditional letter.

Here are his addresses:

From now until 08 October 2014:

Elder Carlo Basconcillo Jalla
OCT08 CA-FRE
2007 N 900 E Unit 27
Provo UT 84602

From 09 October 2014 - 24 September 2016:

Elder Carlo Basconcillo Jalla
California Fresno Mission
1814 N Echo
Fresno, CA 93704
United States

His email is: carlo.jalla@myldsmailnet

You can also write to him using dearelder.com. I've used this before and am a big fan because it's convenient, cheap, and easy. You first create an account (this is free) and then just follow the prompts.

If you have questions, please feel free to make a comment or contact me directly.

Happy 732 Days, everyone!
