Oh boy! Here we go. Our last e-mail from the CCM. He told Jeff he is very anxious to leave the CCM and get his "real" mission under way. This is his zone. Not sure how all this works, but I know they have zones and districts. So this must be bigger than the district... I am sure we will be experts by the time this is all done, all ready for Mason. Here is his e-mail:
well this is my last week coming up and i just had my one
month anniversary! this past week was really good! we had a devotional were an
Area 70 spoke, his name was elder Valencia, we also had the coolest games of
soccer i have ever played! it was so fun! we had like 20 people playing and we
played on the big field! our investigators are doing great! all of them are
getting baptized this next week, even Bryan and McCoy (the other elders in our
district that we have to teach) we taught carlos the law of tithing and
chastity and bryan and mccoy are on the plan of salvation right now. and it was
so cool! we had TRC (where we teach volunteers and sometimes real
investigators) and our teacher hermano vargus invited 2 of his non member
friends to it! and after we taught them, they wanted to invite the missionaries
over to their houses and be baptized!!! HOOT Hoot! SO awesome! then on sunday i
was going to have to give a talk about the fall of adam and eve, but they
didn´t end up calling me, so....i didnt have to give a talk in sacrament for
the whole 6 weeks i was here! but the main thing that happened this week was
that the district above us District 12 A left! :( that means no more pranks,
soccer, and just having a good time with them any more! i was really sad :( i
cant even imagine what its going to be like leaving my own district...its
crazy, i have only known them 6 weeks but i feel like i have known them my
whole life!!! we had a zone testimony meeting with the district that was
leaving and it was really spiritual! ...and just to keep the ball rolling we
found a new game to play with keys! we all stand in a circle and take turns
throwing it up in the air and we all cant move and cant look up and we have to
see who it hits! haha it was pretty rad!!! :) i know this church is true and i
love you all sooooooooooo much and love hearing from you guys!
Love Elder Jones
He also sent us a picture of a "Nacho Libre Bike". Oh, the places you'll go... We sure feel blessed to have a missionary out in the field, to see how his testimony is growing and to know that he is serving the Lord. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and remember the "Reason for the Season".
