Grandpa Is Coming To Bolivia!

I thought I would post an email from President Tenorio to Justin's grandpa and the email from grandpa Hong to President Tenorio. Justin's grandpa received permission to visit Justin in July. They are both very excited to see one another!

>Dear Jim and Jenny,
I am forwarding the letter that I have received from Justin's Mission president. I am happy that I have received his permission to see him in Bolivia. Grandpa Hong
> Dear brother Hong,
>
> Thank you for your email and your expressions of kindness. I tell you that is an honor to have Elder Evans working in this mission. He is an extraordinary missionary and we are very happy that we got him again! I am sorry for the Lima Peru Mission, where his mission president reported that he did han outstanding job.
> Brother Hong, it was good to know that you are planning to visit Bolivia during your vacation. You are welcome to spend some time with Elder Evans and his companion during his P-day, and I will ask him to make the arrangements so you can attend a baptismal service if it's possible (regularly our baptismal services are on Saturdays).
> Please let me know of your arrangements and if you need some other help.

> Best regards,

> Thank you for welcoming Elder Justin Evans, a grandson of mine. He is very excited to be back to Bolivia where he was originally called to serve. I feel so blessed to have him under your care. Elder Evans is my forth among my grandsons to serve as a missionary. I know how important it is to have a great mission president whom a missionary respects whole-heartedly as he does to you.

> I would like to ask you a favor. During July, I like to stop by Boliva and visit Elder Evans during his P-day. As a former mission president (My wife and I have served in Korea Taejon Mission for 1995-1998), I know how hard mission presidents and their wives work. As I mentioned at my home-coming meeting, being a mission president is "the toughest job that I have ever enjoyed." With such knowledge, I send you my personal respect and compliment. If I am permitted to visit Elder Evans, I intend to visit Bolivia during the early part of July. Whatever your decision is, I will accept.

> If you are kind enough to permit me to visit Elder Evans, I will be glad to take him and his companion to a nearby restaurant. More than anything I like to hear from him will be his personal testimony on the gospel that he is teaching. Hopefully, I like to attend a baptismal service, too.
>
> Looking forward to hearing from you, I invoke the abundant blessings from our Father in Heaven upon your family and Bolivia Cochabamba Mission.

> Sincerely Your Brother,
