PACKING HYRUM FOR HIS MISSION
MAY 14, 2013
In
all the excitement of getting Hyrum to the MTC, I forgot to post these
few pictures of the night before when we packed him up!!! This is all
Hyrum will carry with him to live for 2 years! There is a lot of value
in simplicity!!!
We
got Hyrum a new set of scriptures for his mission. This small, compact
size will be nice for him. It was to small to fit "Elder Richardson"
so I went with "Elder Hyrum." I liked it!
From
the time Hyrum was set apart as a "full-time missionary" he took that
seriously. No cell phone, no radio, no electronics, etc. Hyrum took
time to sit down and continue to get familiar with the guidelines in the
"Missionary Handbook." Some missionaries through the years have joked
and called it the "Missionary Bible" or the "Little White Bible."
This is it!!! Hyrum's personal belongings for 2 years!
He
has: 10 white short sleeved shirts, 2 long sleeved white shirts, 10
ties, 12 pair of black socks, 2 pair of black shoes, PJs, exercise
clothes, rain jacket, umbrella, 1 suit, 5 additional slacks, shower
shoes, sandles for Taiwann, 1 set of sheets, power converter, passport
holder, scriptures, dirty clothes bag, a few hangers, 12 pair of
garments, a super durable belt -- "a rachet belt!", a new watch, battery
alarm clock, bath towel, hand towel -- and that is about it!
Basic necessities!
