Well Perth is pretty foreign for us here in Tassie! The first lucky missionary to make their mark on this wall is Elder Brett Docking, originating from Rosny ward. He writes the following in response to the letters of encouragement that we have written to him:
***
"Hi everyone,
As you all can probably tell I'm not the best at writing letters, but I try sometimes anyway. I have served in 4 areas now, in Thornlie, Port Headland, Kwinana & now I'm in Midland, I've been here a little over 2 weeks now. So far the mission has been good filled with highs & lows, but more highs. I've been lucky enough to have had a car for the first half of my mission, however at this current time I am riding a bike, which could be a good thing for me.
I have had a mixture of the good & the bad when it comes to companions. I've served with 3 Americans, 2 Samoans, 1 Australian & am now serving with a German. I've spent most of the time serving with Americans.
My mission has given me some good experiences, some of which I wish I hadn't had & others which I am grateful. I've seen the growth in me, even how small it is.
Well that does it for me for now, I'll see you all next year.
Elder Brett Docking."

Thanks to all those who have taken time to write to Elder Brett so far :)
