Here's Parker's address in Japan. It will be his address the whole time he's on his mission. the mail will be forwarded to him from this address. The postage to send a regular kind of letter is 96-cents. It takes a week to two weeks for letters to go back and forth. The letter we just received from Parker today (the 19th) was postmarked the 10th. He did not make mention of any of the letters i've sent him, so I don't know whether he's received them or not. Anyway, for now it's snail mail or no mail. Here's the address:
Elder Parker Albert Sims
Japan Sapporo Mission
24-1-25 Kita-2jo-nishi
Chou-Ku
Sapporo-shi, Hokkaido 064-0822
Japan
Love you,

Elder Parker Sims...
...is currently preparing to be DEPORTED TO JAPAN. Ok so not quite. He is preparing to serve a 2 year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Sapporo, Japan. He will be in the MTC starting on October 5, 2011 to study and learn the Japanese language. There is no doubt he will be an amazing missionary and a major blessing to the people that he will encounter.
* Elder Parker Sims - Sapporo, Japan - Oct. 2011- Oct. 2013 *

MIA
So it's been a while since we've heard from Parker and I've just found out why. His Mission President in Sapporo says that the town where Parker is doesn't have internet access for the Elders. He says he knows Parker has been writing to us, but that snail mail takes two, sometimes three weeks to arrive, so I hope we'll get something soon.

Christmas Time in Iwamizawa
"The pictures of Parker with the family was 2011 Christmas party in Iwamizawa with branch members. Iwamizawa is the little town where Parker is now serving. It is a way outside of Sapporo, very cold, with daytime high temperatures around 20-degrees and snow 7-10 feet deep, maybe more. We have not heard from Parker in a couple of weeks, but I rec'd these pics from a mom who also has a son in the sapporo mission. - Frankie"
