(Letter from President Klein)
Dear Deakin Family,
We would like to inform you that because of his good example and success your son, Elder Britten Campbell Deakin, is currently serving as a District Leader and Trainer. A district leader is in charge of a certain number of companionships, he is responsible for them, he trains them in aspects of proselyting and finally, he is a representative of the Mission President and the Lord for that group of missionaries; a trainer receives a newly arrived issionary and has the task of training him in all aspects of missionary work.
Here in our mission, only the will of the Lord, faithfulness to the mission rules and the commandments, hard work, and success lead a missionary to this position. This is a very important position that greatly reflects the confidence that the Mission President deposits in the missionary and more importantly, it symbolizes the confidence that the Lord has in your son.
As you can seen, your child has grown in the service of the Lord. Thank you for the continuous training that you have given him throughout his life. I know that you, as parents, are really responsible for the success that he is having here in the mission field! Again we ask that you continue to support your child throughout the rest of his mission. We trust in him completely and in his ability to serve!
We took the liberty of sending other copies of this letter to your son's Bishop and Stake President so that they can follow his proress and his labor in the field. I know that the time invested in preparing and training your child for the mission field is having wonderful results.
We pray that the Lord will continue to bless you in your sacred calling as parents.
Sincerely, H. Moroni Klein, Mission President
