May 1, 2013 - Letter from Mission President

Dear Parents of Hermana Smith,
We received your daughter into our mission Tuesday morning. We brought her to the Mission Home and fed her lunch. She was excited, and seemed ready to get to work. We had a meeting with her, and met with her trainer to discuss the new 12 week training program. During this 12 week period, your daughter will have an extra hour of companion study each day, and will be given specific things that she must report to the Mission President and to the Lord. We know that this is an inspired program, and will help to make missionaries better teachers and better followers of Christ. Please encourage your daughter in this program. It will help her to develop tools that will help her to have a successful mission, and a more successful and fulfilling life after her mission.   
Hermana Smith has been assigned to the greater Madrid area in Barrio 8. The Madrid Temple is in her area. She will work with Hermana Hansen, who is from Norway, as her companion. Hermana Hansen is an obedient, happy sister. 
Preparation Day is on Mondays. Hermana Smith is instructed to email her immediate family every week. We look forward to getting to know her and working along side her in this great work here in the Spain, Madrid Mission. We can tell she will be a great missionary. Thank you for sharing her with us!

Sincerely,
President and Sister Jackson


Dear Smiths - We saw Hermana Smith this afternoon on Temple Square, and she has had a great first day. She said that it was "so much better than the MTC" She is happy and enthused about the work and she is darling!

Con CariƱo,
Hermana Jackson
