Oí tudo mundo,


You all have probably heard already, but this week I will be cominghome because of the Carona Virus. It looks like we will be reassignedfor a different mission after 2 weeks of social isolation after I gethome. Thanks for all the love and support!

Note from Elder Olson's mom: Well, I guess the Corona Virus won out. We received word from Elder Olson's Mission President on Sunday night that he would be heading home for a two week quarantine and then mission reassignment. The email is below.

Dear Family an Stake President,


In accordance with the latest announcements issued by the First Presidency with temporary adjustments made to missionary work and in response to the rapid increase of travel advisories and restrictions emerging around the world, the following steps are being taken in regards to foreign missionaries serving in Brazil:

· All missionaries returning to the United States and Canada who have more than 180 days left to complete their mission will be temporarily reassigned after their arrival. Missionaries who have less than 180 days left on their mission will be released.
· All sister missionaries returning to the United States and Canada who have less than 90 days left to complete their mission should be released. Sister missionaries who have more than 90 days left on their mission will be temporarily reassigned after their arrival.
· All missionaries who return to the United States and Canada must be quarantined for 14 days upon their arrival.


We will immediately communicate the flight itinerary to each missionary's stake president as soon as flights are confirmed.
We extend our gratitude, love and earnest pleading that the Holy Ghost may comfort us all at this time.


Sincerely,
President Piros
