Letter from the Parents of Matt's Trainer

Dear Larsen family:

We were visiting the Tiergarten Ward on Sunday.  We have always loved receiving pictures of our sons while serving from others.  We decided to do the same for the missionaries here.  Our son is serving in the Germany Berlin mission as well. He will be released on June 1st so we are here to pick him up and do some of our own sight seeing beforehand.  After talking to your son we learned that our son was your son's trainer.  Small world.  We sent a picture of us with your son to him.  He had this to say in response in today's email:  

"Elder Larsen was my first trainee, I trained him in Neukölln at the
beginning of my mission, he was a really good self starter, worked
really hard on the language and stuff, really funny guy. His German
got good enough that he has begun learning spanish now, which is why
he is in Tiergarten. He will be done in two transfers. One of my
favorite companions I had."

Matt with Elder Castillo

We thought you would appreciate it.

Sincerely,
Glen and Sonja Anderson
