Brother and
Sister Harrop,
We
are happy to report that Elder Caleb Robb Harrop has arrived safely in the
Peru Lima West Mission after several weeks of intensive missionary and
language training. He arrives in
our midst accompanied by the many prayers you have offered for his welfare and
safety. We thank you for your
loving support of his service and encourage your continued prayers on his
behalf. We now join your prayers with our own. We love him and are eager to serve with him. We sense in his spirit a tremendous
desire to serve the Lord. He has
been assigned to one of our best Elders, who will help to polish the skills he
has already acquired. He will grow
to trust his experience and will develop tremendous love and respect for this
first companionship in the field. This new group of missionaries is a beautiful sight to
behold, armed with a prophetic call to serve, and magnified by the
spirit of the Holy Ghost. Attached
is a photograph of Elder Harrop with the other missionaries he arrived
with. It is humbling to be in
their presence. We extend our gratitude
to you for sharing him with us. We
will do all in our power to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people of
Peru.The people of
Peru are loving, kind, humble, and are responding to the gospel message in
joyful ways. We recently
celebrated the 100th stake in Peru. This is the Land of Lehi. Your son is helping to fulfill the promises made to that
great prophet when he was assured by the Lord that his descendants would not be
forgotten. He will be teaching the
descendents of those children who sat upon the resurrected Savior´s knee. We bear witness that they have not been
forgotten by the Lord. He is
sending some of His most choice servants to find them and bring them back to
His fold. Elder Harrop is one
such servant. Elder Harrop is
very teachable and wants to give his best. He has a great attitude and excitement for missionary
work. He already knows the
language very well and will be a great asset to the other missionaries and to
the Kingdom as it is established here.
Thank you for preparing him to serve at this time, in this place, and in
this way. We know that as he works
hard, studies, prays, and humbly seeks the guidance of the Holy Ghost, miracles
will unfold in his life and in the lives of those he teaches. We marvel at the miracles performed by
the Lord as He magnifies our young missionaries as they bear His message in
His vineyard. God bless them and
you for sacrificing to become engaged in this noble cause.
With gratitude,
President and Sister Archibald
