December 14, 2021 — We got a video call from Elder Claussen. He arrived in Georgia safely. He was able to meet with his Mission President and then all the new elders checked into a hotel. From what we were told the elders go to a hotel and the sisters go to the mission home the first night. The next morning Elder Claussen was assigned a new companion and off he went to Americus.
December 16, 2021 — Today we received a text message from a family in Americus, Georgia with a picture of Elder Claussen and his new companion Elder Harmon. They were there for a dinner appointment. In the text message we were told that the elders are great and that this family feeds the missionaries every week.
Valerie was also able to have a text message conversation with Elder Harmon’s mom. We learned that Elder Harmon has been out for six months.
