Elder Tyler Jones week 28

Sounds like life is keeping busy for you guys. Thanks for sending me the picture of Allison's cake. It looks super nice. That's crazy that Dan is growing up so fast. It seems super weird that dans going to start giving talks and whatnot. It sounds like dan is going to have a lot of fun with his friends though. I'm glad the babies aren't beating each other up as much anymore.

 It's been a good week. We've been focusing a lot on finding new investigators. We're just looking for more people to teach. We found a former investigator in the grocery store today. There's a little Mexican grocery store in the area where we usually go contacting. We usually go there to do our grocery shopping since it's super cheap. We found a guy named Marcio and talked to him and as it turned out he's a former investigator. So we're going to visit him this week.

We had another lesson with Silvia this week. We'd been teaching her since about our second week in this area. She dropped us this past lesson. So that was a bit disappointing. But it'll be alright.

For our preparation day we went and played volleyball with the Tongan ward. That was a lot of fun. They're really funny and the game gets pretty intense with them. The Tongan elders in our zone invited us to come with them. 

Our bikes broke again this week. So we're going to need to repair the wheels again. But that should be alright. We'll be able to deal with that.

I cleaned up our apartment a lot this week. I organized pretty much everything and rearranged things. The walls were covered with all sorts of stuff so I just took almost all of it down. It looks quite a bit cleaner now. So it just feels nicer to be living in that apartment. This apartments been used by missionaries for a really long time.

Elder Bishops been a little sick this week. So not as much happened this week. He's feeling better now though. So I'm thinking we're going to be able to get more done next week.

Transfers are next week. So this might be my last week with Elder Bishop, since his training will be done. But who knows what'll happen. It seems like when you think you know what's going to happen, you don't know what's going to happen. Like when I thought I was going to stay in Las Colinas and my trainer was going to leave but they actually just kicked me out and had me go train in a new area. 

Anyway, I hope you have a great week.

Love,

Elder Jones
