We were startled this morning to learn of the massive earthquake in Chile, because, as you know, our grandson Bryton (in the whites) is serving there in the Santiago East Mission.
We thought you would like to know the words that were sent by mission leaders to the parents of the missionaries there. It is quite uplifting.
"All Missionaries in the Chile, Santiago East Mission are safe and accounted for. Today will be a day of service for all of us. We will look for ways to serve our Chilean brothers and sisters by teaching them about our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ. We are thankful for the blessing of safety that we have been given. We are thankful for the guidance of the Holy Ghost, and we stand as witnesses of our Heavenly Father's love for all of His children throughout the world. Without a doubt, we know that our Savior lives, and that He directs this work. We know that when we do His work in His way, He is with us, and we experience miracles! Thank you for your prayers and concern, and please know that we love our missionaries with all our hearts. They are the Lord's army, and we are blessed to be among them and learn from them. They are blessing the lives of so many of our Father's children, and they are powerful examples of all that young people can and should be. Don't worry! Our missionaries are prepared, and 'if ye are prepared, ye shall not fear.'" (D&C 38:30)
It was great to know that they are doing OK.
