That's awesome to hear about Caleb. I'm so excited for him. Really
excited for general conference as well. Sounds like you guys are
having a good time in Indiana. Tell Dan to accelerate his mustache
growth.
This was an awesome week. We got some new elders in our zone that are
all super cool. So something fun happened this week. Our mission
president called us and told me that I was going to be a participant
in an experiment. I'm the only one in this mission but they're getting
missionaries from all over. Apparently it's going to be about how
technology affects language learning. So I got to go in a Skype call
with the guy conducting the experiment on Thursday which was cool.
They're going to have me using Duolinguo and apps like that to assist
in language learning and they're going to track my progress. So that's
exciting.
Oh, we got iPads this week. They wait until your second transfer to
give them to you. It's nice to finally have a planner. I had just been
looking off my trainers planner the first transfer.
We had a pretty good week for missionary work. Nathan, the one who
walked 6 miles to try to get to church came to church this week. We've
had a few really good lessons with him this week. We started teaching
a less actives girlfriend while reactivating him. She's been really
receptive as well. We've got a good hand full of people that are just
doing well.
One of the people I had gotten to teach during transfers got baptized
this week. We got to go to the baptism which was nice. We've gotten a
lot of new investigators this week as well so we'll see what comes of
that next week.
We had a family home evening tonight with a members sister tonight
which went really well. She's going to come to conference which is
exciting.
Anyways, it's been an awesome week.
Love you guys,
Elder Jones
