Elder ZJones: Hyped for General Conference

So yesterday before church, as we began to look for those who planned to come to church with us, it was raining. I was riding my bike and saw a man in the street. I looked up from the muddy street to say hi and when I did, I slipped and fell right into the mud! Haha. It wasn't that funny at that moment though.

This week was good. We were able to find those who we are preparing to receive the blessings of the Restored Gospel and to be baptized. This week, Jeremias and Adaluz will be getting baptized. Pray for them and their Mom, Annabella, that they will stay firm in this decision.

We are also working with Jeremias, Cielo and Sarita. They are part of a part member family. They came to church and are excited to learn more. Also we found Emiliano and Lucia. They came to church as well which was awesome. We are excited to be working with and helping them.

This week I had my interview with Pte Resek. We talked about some of the people that we are teaching and I asked him how we can help them, and he gave some suggestions. He said that he had a lot of expectations for me and talked with me a little about his purpose as a mission president. We are always talking about baptism and stuff but he said that his purpose is to help us grow spiritual that after the mission we will be strong and firm members of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints. It was a good interview.

This week I am super excited for General Conference. It is a chance that we have twice during the year to listen to the Prophet speak and give us the exact counsel that we need for the next six months of our lives. I know that if we listen and give head to his words, the Lord will help us understand his words and the counsel that He is giving us.

Have a great week!

Elder Jones
