Information regarding letters and packages-June 26, 2013


The following information came from the Mission Home-

As you know, the missionaries cherish the letters and packages that they receive from their families and we are well aware of the time, effort and sometimes even sacrifices that these packages are for you.
To be sure they arrive in a timely manner and in the best conditions, please follow these recommendations:

1 - Make sure your shipment is properly stamped and paid for.
2 - Verify that the address of the sender and the recipient are written legibly. Write clearly:
Les Missionnaires
Elder … or Sister …

3 - Do not forget to write the country of destination and of origin.
4 - Make sure your package is securely packed.
5-Never send cash by post. It is prohibited under French law.
6-Remember that the bigger the package, the greater the risk of it being damaged.
7 - Send the package to the address of the apartment of your missionary and not to the mission office. Packages sent to the mission office will not be forwarded to the missionaries by mail.
8 – Don’t send packages within the 15 days before a transfer. Transfers are every 6 weeks. Ask your missionary to keep you informed of transfer dates.
9 - Remember to send Christmas, Easter, and birthday packages at least 3 weeks early.

10 - If you can, it would be very nice to include in your package something for your missionaries’ companion. In fact, some of our missionaries receive no support or packages from their loved ones and this could be a support for them, as well as very beneficial to their relationship with their companion.
