Elder CJones: Blessings That Come From An Amazing Mother

"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies.
He that doesn't read only lives one."

This area is not easy. I will put it at that. Rio Bravo is a place that requires a lot more work than other places. Back in my old area, I had the luxury of a ward and great members that wanted to help, people that wanted to listen and leaders that really lead. They helped us in every aspect, to find, to preach and to baptize.

Here in Rio Bravo it's a different story. The people here are still growing and understanding what it is like to help the people here. I really love the work here. It is helping me become a better person and it's helping me work harder to get the same results for our president.

Tracting with Elder Hernandez

This week, I was talking to my district leader.  The leaders here are really pushing to have as many numbers as possible. I know that it is important to find people and teach them, but investigators need to make those decisions with their own agency--decisions to be baptized and make those critical and important covenants with our Heavenly Father.

This week I received a letter from my mom a letter that was sent two months ago. I didn't receive it until the day I needed it. In this letter were things I needed to hear that very day.  Things that were on my mind and I didn't know what to do.

I know that through personal revelation we can be the blessings for so many people in our lives, like my mother was for me this past week!

Let's Do Some Good!
