Letter from President and Hermana Millett



February 18, 2021 

Dear Hermana Quincee Carter,

Congratulations on your mission call and assignment to the Paraguay Asunción North Mission!  We eagerly await your arrival to join our mission family.   We invite you to dedicate yourself as a disciple of Jesus Christ to help gather scattered Israel.

The First Presidency message in Preach My Gospel promises, “The Lord will reward and richly bless you as you humbly and prayerfully serve Him.  More happiness awaits you than you have ever experienced as you labor among His children.”  Your mission will be a time of great happiness, coupled with spiritual and personal growth.  We promise you as you are obedient and as you thrust in your sickle with your might you will be blessed and will enrich the lives of others during your missionary service.  You will have the opportunity to create friendships and memories that will last a lifetime and into eternity.

Attached to this letter is our statement of mission culture that our mission leadership council developed.  We encourage you to familiarize yourself with this statement.  Also attached is important supplementary information.  Please share this information with your parents. 

The best mission preparation is to prayerfully read the Book of Mormon and Preach My Gospel.  If you have not completely read the Book of Mormon, we strongly recommend that you do so before arriving.  I will likely ask you about this in our initial interview.  If you have read it previously, we encourage you to read it again. Also please study the doctrines contained in the missionary lessons in Chapter 3 of Preach My Gospel.  Pay particular attention to the doctrine of repentance.  Please ensure that you fully repent of any transgressions that would make you unworthy to have the Spirit.  This may include confession to your local priesthood leader.

We appreciate the sacrifices that you and your family will make for your missionary service.  We pray that these days before your departure might be filled with love and joy

Mucho Amor!

President and Hermana Millett
