Dear Brother and Sister Ellis,  

We can hardly believe that it is time for Sister Sydney Ryann Ellis to return home from her mission. It  has been our privilege to serve with her in the Kansas Wichita Mission in the great heartland of  America. Sister Ellis has had many wonderful experiences, seen many miracles and been so blessed  teaching and serving in her areas as a Junior Companion, Senior Companion and Trainer.  

Sister Ellis has learned to rely on her Savior during her mission, to repent and change, and has come to  understand more fully the Atonement of Jesus Christ. As she has served obediently throughout her  mission, she has begun to shape a strong and sure foundation with which to build her life on. Often it is  difficult for parents and families to part with those they love when sending them on their missions, but  we are confident that the experience your missionary has gained will greatly bless your lives.  

Our mission vision is for each missionary to become, and help others to become, true disciples of Jesus  Christ and enjoy the blessings of the Holy Temple. Sister Ellis has embraced this vision while serving  and it is our hope, she will continue to reflect that vision throughout her life. Encourage her to return to  the temple often and consider serving as an ordinance worker, if possible. We have grown to  love Sister Ellis and we tenderly send her home to your loving care and guidance.  

Thank you for sharing Sister Ellis with us!
