so this week was pretty eventful!
so monday thru wednesday i wasnt feeling to well cuz i was still getting over my virus. (just an upset stomache) then on wednesday, i had to go the the foot doctor to get my ingrown toe looked at. well they decided to just chop it off right there! haha so now i have a knarly toe just like mom! ;) so that whole day i had to go around in my jandals! people kept making comments about it and it was super weird! haha We had ZTM on thursday and afterward we all went to olive garden! and guess who i met there! Elder Alex Olsen! haha he comes up to me and asks, "do you have a sister named morgan?" i was pretty weirded out about that but i said yeah, and he said, "oh well i went to school with her and she told me that her brother was in this mission! haha"
summer has come again with the usual rainstorms!
it was really cool this weekend the youth of the ward read the book of mormon from beginning to end in 24 hours! CRAZY!!! but super cool! they all gave their testimonies of the book of mormon in fast and testimony meeting the next day! and it was doubly cool because 6 less actives that we have been teaching came to church! and of one of those 6 there was a recent convert who i hadnt seen in over 6 months and she showed up and i just about cried when i saw her! tears of joy! because it had been so long and so many prayers were said. but she is going to continue coming to church! it was amazing!
it reminds me a scripture in the bom in Alma 27:18. i have experienced this joy on the mission and i know that it is only in the gospel that it can be achieved!
the cultural celebration looked awesome and i hope you guys have a great week!
flipping sweet sunset and a baby sandhill crane!
Love Elder Jones
