Elder HJones: New Companion, New Opportunities

So on Wednesday I took a bus and traveled to Antofagasta to receive my brand new companion. We had a little meeting with all the new missionaries and had a small training meeting with Presidente Ferriera. My new companion is Elder Estes. He's from Las Vegas Nevada. Super excited to work with him and help him grow as a missionary.

My district leader is Elder Barreto. He's from Peru and he's training too. We live in the same pension. So it's me, Elder Estes, Elder Barreto, and his new companion Elder Barker. There are four hermanas in the zone, and they are all Latinas.

We also had a baptism this past week, for Gian Franco. Super cool to watch him get baptized. My new companion was able to baptize him--his first baptism in the mission!

I am grateful for the many opportunities that I have to grow and for the opportunities that God gives me to grow personally and to help others do the same.

Love,

Elder Jones
