Is there a way to find out my SR's street address if I know the ship#? I got his form letter but when he called he told me he was moved to a different ship and division. He gave me the new info (ship 13, div 065) but he didn't know his new street address. He told me mail still gets to him but it is delayed. I'd really rather send it to the right address if I can.

terrif,
Oh, since you have your SR daughter's bankcard, it is not a joint account with both of you on it? If she doesn't have a card she can pay her pictures with, I believe she can still order the Package A for $140.00 and PIR dvd for $29.00 when she takes her pictures, but you can pay for them at the Photo Lab after PIR. You might want to leave right away with her after PIR, then come back later when it is still open to pay and pick up--it will be alot less crowded for you then!!
You can double check this (her ordering the full package with Keel and a PIR dvd, that can be paid by you after PIR) by clicking on the link provided in FTLW's post about 7 below mine~ The phone number to the Photo Lab is on there~~

*arney not amey...sorry!

amey: You can contact the recruiter for PIR date info while waiting for the form letter. Your recruiter should have it on the computer.
Trecia: While it is true that the SRs can have some of the supplies that you mentioned, it is best to not send anything unless the SR specifically asked for it (as yours did) so they have a heads up it is coming. My son was grilled when he was up there when someone (we never found out who) send him a pkg and he wasn't expecting anything. It had Christmas treats in it....so was the forbidden food pkg. Of course, he couldn't keep it....but they had to be convinced that he didn't know it was being sent to avoid IT (physical exercise for punishment). It varies by RDCs....some are more lenient than others. But if your SR asks for you to send something like yours did, then it is ok to send since they should have cleared that with their RDCs first. The RTC Family Guide suggest that stickers and extra outside writing on the letters not be done....even though your SR said that they were ok in her division, I don't think I would do it! Just in case! :-)
Here is a link to the Family Guide. Read the part under "Mail" everyone so you understand what they can/cannot have.
