baptism date for jari

Family and friends,

Happy anniversary Mom and Dad!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you have a great great day!

The blessings and miracles of missionary work never really stop or slow down, we are doing really well here. We have a great pool of investigators now, continually growing, and can see some really great potential with some of these people. One thing unique to this ward here in Madrid than my other areas is working with part member families. Right now we are teaching 5 separate investigators that belong to member families, which is way more than any other area I´ve been in. I´m really excited for these upcoming weeks and months for this ward.

Our investigator Jari--the guy from the DR--is doing really well. He has been reading a lot and has no problem accepting any of the stuff so far. His baptismal date is for the 30 of August which is coming up, but he will be prepared. I´m so excited for him.

Our good old Alberto--Peruvian who wears a tank top flares and cowboy boots--is doing really well also. Lately he´s been a bit weird on meeting with us, he doesn´t like doing it very often, also about coming to church, but he finally came to church and enjoyed it a lot.

We as a mission just got challenged to read the Book of Mormon together and finish on the 23 of December. I am excited to do it and have a chance to read it again with all of the other missionaries here. I wanted to invite you guys to do it as well with me if you want,. I know you just started the new testament, Mom (sorry). you guys don´t have to if you don´t want to, just an invitation for those who aren´t already working on their own goal like that.

I´m doing well out here, I´ve changed a ton and feel so much more mature and ready for life, ha.

Love you all so much,

Elder Franson
