Important Mailing Instructions before Mailing Tommy

The Church's Mail Dept says that we now can only mail a one-sided, single page letter to missionaries, via the POUCH system.

What we do is to write on one side of a single page to the missionary, fold the paper in thirds, so that the long side of the folded paper is 8 1/2 ". Tape the 8 1/2" side and DON'T TAPE THE SHORT SIDES OF THE FOLDED PAPER. Put the 1st class postage on it and Mail Away...

Here again is Tommy's POUCH mailing address:

Elder Thomas Knight Lowell
Guatemala, Guatemala City North Mission
POUCH, P.O. Box 30150
Salt Lake City, UT 84130-0150
USA

By the way, the Church's Mail Dept gave me a one time exemption to the above rule, when I mailed your letters written at our family Christmas Party. I just taped your letters to a white 8 1/2" x 11 " sheet of paper and mailed them. For those of you that wrote on more than one page, I had to send the separate pages as separate letters (i.e. Letter 1 of 2).

Our family thanks you so much for remembering Tommy. Happy Mailing to you all...

Ron
