Arrival in France

Jordan left the MTC on Monday, March 8th. Here she is with President & Sister Staheli at the mission home in Paris!

Dear Brother and Sister Pearce,

Sister Staheli and I were delighted to welcome your daughter, Sister Jordan Pearce, into the France Paris Mission on Tuesday, March 9th 2010. She and her MTC companion were enthusiastic and arrived in good health. She spent her first day eating some home cooked food, napping, visiting with me, contacting non-members in the heart of Paris, and sharing testimonies in our home. We enjoyed her spirit.

The next morning, after a mission orientation, Sister Pearce left for her first assignment to work in the Area with Sister Howell, who will be her trainer. Their apartment address is:
Soeur Pearce
296, av. Clémenceau
92000 Nanterre
FRANCE

We feel very privileged to work with your daughter. We also realize the responsibility we share with you to help her continue to grow spiritually as she faithfully performs her duties. May the Lord inspire us all to sustain her in this challenging and exciting assignment. We hope you will join Sister Staheli and me in praying each day for your daughter, her companion, investigators, and all of us serving in the France Paris Mission.

A positive, supportive letter from home every week does wonders to sustain a missionary’s morale. Proverbs 25:25 states: As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country. If you have any questions or if we can assist you in any way, please contact us at our office (001-331-3480-0483) or home (001-331-3976-8402).

Sincerely,
Don H. Staheli
President, France Paris Mission
