Recent Letter from President Leal


LETTER FROM PRESIDENT LEAL

Dear Family of Elder Heperi,

Sister Leal and I are pleased to inform you that Elder Heperi has been called to be a Zone Leader. Your son has gained our confidence and we have observed his missionary service. We’re certain that he has the necessary qualities to fulfill his calling that is so important. He and his companion, who is also a Zone Leader, will be responsible for eight to eleven companionships of missionaries in their zone. Their greatest responsibilities are:

- Teach and Train
- Manage the zone, including interviews for baptism
- Communicate regularly with the mission president about the zone
- Delegate and guide through his love and example

The most important thing that has helped your son to be successful until now is the support of his family. Thank you so much for your support. We hope that you may continue to pray for him and offer your counsels. The Lord is blessing us here in the Brazil Londrina Mission and we are grateful for the opportunity to serve with Elder Heperi.

With Love,

President and Sister Leal

Thank you, again, for your most recent update regarding our son. We remain ever grateful for the opportunity he has been given to serve the Lord in Brazil. His service continues to bless both our immediate and extended family.

Our prayers remain constant on behalf of Elder Heperi, all of your missionaries, and more especially you and your dear wife. We are aware of the sacrifices you are all making and extend a special thanks for the leadership you are providing in the Londrina Mission.

The Lord bless you all!!!

With much gratitude for our association through Christ the Lord,
