Fujisawa ふじさわし Week 1

We finally received Connor's assignment letter from his mission president this morning just before 4:00.  Here is the letter and the attached pictures.  The Google map on the Maps page has been updated with a pin at the Chapel in Fujisawa.  We are not sure of his exact area boundaries but it should be close. We expect to hear from Connor on Monday.  Please pray for Typhoon Lionrock to continue to weaken.  It has gone from a Cat 3 to a Cat 2 over night and as of this morning it looks like Tokyo will take a direct hit sometime late Monday or early Tuesday.

Dear Brother and Sister Murphy,
Your son arrived in the Japan Tokyo South Mission on August 23,2016 in good spirits and ready to commence his proselyting assignment. We had a wonderful time with him.

Elder Murphy has been assigned to work with Elder Battaglia and they are serving in an area called Fujisawa. Your son can receive his mail at the following address (Mission Home address):
Elder Connor Scott Murphy
Japan Tokyo South Mission
1-7-7 Kichijoji, Higashi-cho
Musashino-shi, Tokyo 180-0002
Japan

Attached is a picture of your son with Sister Warnick and me, of himself, his companion, and a group picture of the new missionaries, trainers, and Assistants. We have also included a map showing the locations of the various areas in the mission. You can use it as a personal record of his assignments.


By the time you receive this letter, Elder Murphy should be adjusted to his new proselyting area. The positive sustaining support he gets from you at home will be a great blessing to him. May the Lord bless you and your family as you share in your son’s mission experience.

Sincerely,
President J Paul Warnick
