Pre-mission picture

Check out Elder Levos' pre-mission photo! It's a little grainy thanks to the scanning process, but the shoot turned out well. He picked out such a handsome tie.

How to contact Elder Levos

Elder Levos absolutely loves to get mail! There are three ways to contact him while he is in Peru:

1. http://www.dearelder.com/

This is the easier way, and it works basically as an email. Simply type in the web address, and on the front page choose the drop-down menu that says "Select mission". Select the Peru, Trujillo mission, and then choose to "write a letter". On the next page, type in your contact information, and specify the recipient of the letter to be Elder Trace Levos. This will be printed out and mailed to Peru through the pouch system, at no expense to you.

2. Written letters

Elder Levos can recieve written letters, though they have to be sent through the pouch system. This system involves no envelopes, and has to be done in a specific manner. After writing the letter (use computer paper, notebook paper will not process, no photos allowed), lay it blank side down. Fold the bottom of the letter about one-third of the way up the page and crease. Fold the top of the letter to the bottom of the first fold and crease. Secure the long side with two pieces of tape about one inch from each end, but do not seal the ends. In the top left corner write your name and complete return address. Affix first class postage in the top right corner. In the middle write the missionary address as follows:

Elder Trace Levos
Peru Trujillo Mission
POB 30150
Salt Lake City, UT 84130

3. Mailing packages

Elder Levos can receive packages at the mission home in Peru. If sending through a private courier, the telephone number is 51 44-291-543. Send them to the following address:

Elder Trace Levos
Avenida Larco 849, Piso 3
Urb. La Merced
Trujillo, La Libertad
PERU

You can also send normal mail (letters in envelopes, cards, pictures) to the above address.
