Letter from Mission Pres. - 1st Area!

Dear Parents of Elder Morgan,

We received your son into our mission Tuesday morning. We brought him to the Mission Home and fed him lunch. We gave him an overview of the mission and some of the rules and expectations, and spent most of the day with him. He was excited, and seemed ready to get to work.
With President and Sister Jackson
 
Later that afternoon, we had a meeting at the Stake Center in Madrid on Temple Square, and met with his trainer to discuss the new 12 week training program. During this 12 week period, your son will have an extra hour of companion study each day, and will be given specific things that he must report to the Mission President. We know that this is an inspired program, and will help to make missionaries better teachers and better followers of Christ. Please encourage your son in this program. It will help him develop tools that will help him to have a successful mission, and a more successful and fulfilling life after his mission. 
  
Elder Morgan has been assigned to the Madrid area, in Barrio 8. He will serve with Elder Shumway, who is from Arizona. Elder Shumway is a happy, obedient missionary, who will be a good first companion for your son. 

Our Preparation Day is on Monday. Elder Morgan is instructed to email his immediate family every week. We look forward to getting to know him and working along side him in this great work here in the Spain, Madrid Mission. We can tell he will be a great missionary. Thank you for sharing him with us! We already love him.

Sincerely,
President and Sister Jackson
