Well so I'm off into the MTC today! I'm very excited and there are a lot of emotions going through me right now. Thanks again for all of the amazing influences you all have had on me through out my life.
Much love,

Final Farewell
Thank you to everyone who was able to make it to my farewell at church and my open house after wards!!! I really enjoyed having the support there before I leave. Today I am driving up to Utah with my family and tomorrow I am going into the MTC at 11:30am. I'm very excited to get out there and serve and have the lords work become such a large part of my life. I would LOVE to hear from everyone so make sure to write me! If you have any questions about writing me just email my
Mom at: iuguest@sbcglobal.net or Danielle at:
Danielle has access to my Blog and Facebook so you can write on either if you have questions too.
I promise I will always write anyone who writes me back. I dont have many addresses though so I cant write until you send me a letter first.
Thank you all so much for all of your love and support!
See you all later! :D

First Entry
As most of you know I am choosing to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have been called to serve in the Mexico, Chihuahua mission for a period of 2 years. The reason I am starting a blog before I am leaving is so everyone can follow and read about my trip through the MTC and Mexico. I am allowed to email my family every week and so instead of having everyone receive a forward from my mom each week; anyone can just come to this blog and read the emails I send because Danielle will be posting them here. I can not receive emails from people but I can receive letters and would love to hear from everyone! :D
I will be in the MTC until March 3 and my address there is:
Elder Andrew Doran Davidson
Mexico Chihuahua Mission
Provo Missionary Training Center
MTC Mailbox #137
2005 N 900 E
Provo, UT 84604
Also, DearElder.com will allow you to send me letters for FREE while I am in the MTC. You sign up, its free, and then you can write me a letter. They will print it out and mail it for you too. Im not sure if they still send them free when I move to Mexico, but try it out and let me know :)
I will then move to Chihuahua Mexico from March 2009 until December 2010. The mail system in Mexico is a little sketchy so the Church does their own mail system called 'pouch.' This is a much better and reliable mailing system, but they have very strict rules. ONLY postcards and letters that are single sheet, folded into three-panels, and taped only at the top(NO envelops), may be sent through pouch. Mail the pouch letters to:
Elder Andrew Doran Davidson
Mexico Chihuahua Mission
POB 30150
Salt Lake City UT 84130-0150
USA
Remeber this is the address for the pouch letters to Mexico. This is only one US stamp too. This is the one I strongly encourage if you are just trying to mail a letter!
My actual Mexico address that you can send packages and mail me letters at(not always reliable) is:
Elder Andrew Doran Davidson
Mexico Chihuahua Mission
Calle Ojinaga # 2210 A, Antes Morelos
Colonia Cuauhtemoc
31020 Chihuahua, Chihuahua
Mexico
I am not sure how much it costs to mail letters or varrying packages, so you might want to check with the post office. I dont think it is too much. :) Once again DearElder.com is a viable way to send me things as well.
