Introduction

Hello, everybody! Jared's sister Becky here. We decided to create a blog for Jared's mission, rather than having a long e-mail list to send to every week. So here is where you will come in order to be able to see what's up in Baltimore!

Just a disclaimer, this blog is being managed by the family, not by Jared, so he will not be able to see any comments left here. If you want to send him a letter, feel free! We will post his addresses as we see fit.

Jared is so excited to be going! Stay tuned for his first letter sometime next week.

So needless to say, we've been resting and he's been putting icy-hot on his leg every couple of hours.  But we've still been able to go out for a few hours every day; on Wednesday we had to go down to the Inner Harbor Building so Elder Parkinson could do a baptismal interview for someone that the Inner Harbor Elders are teaching, and we were able to go to his baptism on Saturday. We needed to be there to fill the font, then members that I knew started coming and we ended up staying for the whole thing. Afterwards, Elder Stubblefield put...
