Jared is doing great. He really wasn’t a fan of the MTC
food. He is really craving some Chipotle. His Birthday was on December 6th
and he got a pretty cool surprise. Elder Steiner remembered that his birthday
was that day and at 6:30 in the morning when Jared was doing his laundry, the
zone sang Happy Birthday to him and then they did a huge group hug. Elder
Steiner also got everyone to sign a card for him. Jared usually picks up on
things like this but he didn’t have a clue what was going on. He was sooo happy
that he got to spend his birthday in the MTC!
He is so happy to have been able to see Meagan. He said
she’s glowing because she’s so happy. An apostle will be coming to visit them
for Christmas and Jared is really wishing he could be there but happy to
finally be in the field.
He told me about another basketball game that he and his
district had played. He misses basketball a lot. So, he had a lot of fun with
them! Elder Jarvis and Hermana Pierce’s “thing” when they made a shot is to air
chest bump and then do the baptize motion.
: ) I thought that was pretty sweet.
Elder Jarvis was happy to get some feedback from his teachers
informing him that he was doing really well with the gospel and the language.
He was so excited to hear that he was doing well from someone else’s
perspective.
He is really going to miss being in the MTC and all of the
people he got to spend time with and get to know.
He arrived in Arizona on the 11th. I’m sure he loves it
there. Today the will be having a special Christmas conference!
His new address is
Elder Francis Jared Jarvis
475 N. 43rd Ave Apt #218
Phoenix, Az 85009
Send packages to mission office still. They will get stolen
from the apartment. Letters are fine.
Also, He has two baptisms set for this week. Exciting!
