Elder Tyler Jones week 90


We had a good week!

Julia got baptized! We got her all ready to be baptized this week and we had her baptismal service right after church on Sunday. It was really awesome since so many people were able to attend. They seem really happy though. She went to primary again today and In a couple months she's going to start going to young womens. We were talking to the Young womens president about seeing if she could go to Girls camp but she just barely misses the cut off. But either way they've been making lots of friends in the ward and they're really happy to be here. They want us to start working on Julia's brother now. He's a little bit older and living with his girlfriend but they want us to try to get him coming as well. So we'll do what we can.

Had a fun experience on a bike this week. So, in this area I'm just using another elder's bike to get around but the problem is that his bikes front portion with the handlebars and the wheel aren't really attached to the frame to well so its a little shaky sometimes. We were riding home from an appointment we had and there was a guy on the side of the street. So, I decided to stop and talk to him. But as I put on the brake and began to slow down the entire front just gave out and it flipped me over the front of the handlebars. I didn't really get hurt too bad at all but it was a really good conversation starter with the guy on the side of the street.
Other than that we've been visiting a lot of our less active members. It's been pretty good. We've been trying to introduce more and more people to family history and people are generally really interested.

They've got me signed up for "My Plan" now. That's a program they have returning missionaries do to prepare them to return from a mission. It hasn't really become real to me yet that I'll be going home soon. 

But anyway, things are going pretty great. I'm really enjoying this ward.

I hope you have a great week!
