Dear Families of our New Missionaries,
We wanted to take a brief moment to let you know that your missionary has arrived safely in our beloved mission in Barcelona, Spain and we have had the privilege of getting acquainted with him.  He appears to be excited about his stewardship as an emissary of the Lord Jesus Christ and is ready to begin this great work.  How honored we feel to have your missionary in this special mission.  We truly believe that these great young men and women are the finest fruits of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  Thank you for loving, nurturing, teaching, and supporting him in preparation for this marvelous mission experience.  His goodness, virtue, high character, enthusiasm, and love of the Savior are truly inspiring. 
We would encourage you to pray for your missionary daily, write weekly letters or e-mails (use myldsmail.net) of support and encouragement, pray for his investigators, send scriptures or inspiring talks, and especially let him know how much you love him.  

Letters and packages may be sent to the mission home. If you plan to send a package, we would encourage you to send items in a padded flat-rate envelope. You can order these items at your local post office at no fee and you can put up to 4 pounds inside. Most of our boxed packages are stopped at customs and never arrive to the mission home. Many parents have decided to put additional money on their missionaries accounts and let their missionary purchase needed items. Prices in Spain are very good and that ensures your missionary receives the items. Parents also order items at amazon.es.

The mission office address is:    
Spain Barcelona Mission
08017 Barcelona 
Spain
(0034) 932.116.762

We can assure you that we will do everything we can to protect and take care of your missionary while he serves under our stewardship.  Please know that we feel a great responsibility to guide and teach “our” missionaries, and help make their mission experience the most significant time of their lives. Please feel free to contact us at ....  if the need arises.  We feel confident that the Lord will pour out great blessings on you and your family while your missionary serves the Lord in this beautiful land. With much love and appreciation,

President and Sister Dayton

Spain Barcelona Mission  


P.S. We hope you enjoy this picture of your missionary next to the flag of this wonderful country. We encourage you to go to our blog,http://espanabarcelonamission.blogspot.com.es/, to see the activities he participated in on his first few days in the mission-field.

We are excited to welcome this large group of powerful new missionaries. We've enjoyed getting to know them and are eager to see their accomplishments. Welcome to Hermana Bashaw! Welcome to Hermana Jenkins! Welcome to Hermana Johnson! Welcome to Hermana Davis! Welcome...
We took a trip to Montjuic, a castle with a bird's eye view of Barcelona.


This morning all of the new missionaries and their future trainers came to the mission home for some final instruction. We held a session to Train the Trainers. We also had a luncheon of enchiladas and salad with all the new missionaries and trainers.
Afterwards, we held a final set of instructions before getting to the exciting training assignments!

And the President requested the Golden Envelope containing the Training Assignments.
