Hey ppl,

Just wanted to give you a heads up in case you want to send something to James for his birthday (Oct 27th) or Christmas. We just recently sent a huge box and spent a small fortune mailing it only to learn of the "other" ways. There is a box (approx size) 9x3x12 that you can fill with stuff that must weight less that 4 bls that will cost between $10-15 to send. It arrives in one week and when it hits the mission office they forward it to the missionary. The only other way to send stuff "cheaply" is to send it surface parcel post. It will take anywhere between 4-8 weeks to get there so you would have to mail it with plenty of time to get there. Our 30lb box would have cost $40 to ship this way. I won't tell you what we paid it is that embarrassing. Packages send this way will wait at the mission office until the missionary comes in for something to get it.

I hope this helps you out.
