Elder Cragun's Missionary Moments: July 2015

Mail

Elder Cragun would LOVE hearing from you. Panama does not have home delivery for mail. They don't have actual addresses many times. Missionaries receive their mail at the Post Office or from the mission home. Letters and small pkgs like CDs are delivered using one address, while most packages are sent using a different address. Pouch mail is also way to send letters or postcards without a huge cost.

Package Mailing

Note: Packages that Elder Cragun receives are subject to customs duties that he must pay for. Just FYI.

Use this address when mailing packages:

Calle 53, Marbella
Ciudad de Provincia de Panama
Panama

Pouch Letter Mailing

Pouch mail is a 1 page letter folded in thirds and taped shut that is sent to Church Headquarters. It is then sent to the mission office with other church mail. A nice option for mailing letters.

Lay the blank side of the 20 lb. letter paper (single sheet) facing down with the writing facing you.

Fold the top of the letter about one-third on the way down and crease.

Fold the bottom of the letter to the top of the first fold and crease.

Use two pieces of tape or two sticker tabs on the top to secure it, not more than one inch from each side, but do not seal the ends.

Do not include any other items within the letter.

In the top left corner, write your name and complete return address.

Affix a stamp in the top right corner.

In the middle, write the following:

Elder Landon Cragun
Panama Panama City Mission
P.O. BOX 30150
SALT LAKE CITY UT 84130-0150
