Hey Mom,
So I am going to tell you in advance that not much happened this week so this may be a shorter letter...anyway.
Caitlin said her week was fun and she was happy to make some money. Chels will just have to deal for a couple more weeks and then she might have a crazy brother to keep her company too. I am happy that you had a fun Thanksgiving though and that you had a substitute son there. We had an opportunity to celebrate with some of the Americans in the international branch and then we got to go to the doctor because Elder Hubbell got something in his eye that actually scratched it. Crazy. That was fun though and it was cool to see Elder Wallis there too.
I am kinda sad that I barely miss Stake Conference, but we have a zone conference tomorrow which will be awesome I am sure. We had a primary program this week for the other ward too so two primary programs in two weeks made for some fun Sundays here. Last Monday was awesome with the bishop and I am happy we got to go out there one more time. That family is so awesome. He has been a member for longer than Elder Hubbell has been alive...so he and his family are quite strong. We had a couple of other good meetings this week, but it was honestly another tough week full of lots of opposition. We tried a lot of different ideas and worked on ourselves and still didn't see any results, but they will come. Honestly, there has been a lot of opposition in general, but that just means that the Lord is near and He has big things set up and Satan is doing all he can to hold us back. We are going to keep on working diligently and the Lord will bless us. I love being here and I know that God is our Eternal Head. He is the source of all good that we see in this life and I know that His goal is to help us to become the best that we can - to become like Him. I know that the Church was restored so that the Lord's great work could come forward and that only through obedience to the ordinances and laws of the gospel of Christ will we find true happiness here and eternal happiness in the kingdom of God.
I love you Mom. Thanks for your wonderful example and love.
Love,
Elder Jones.
We have Valeriy's baptism
