Jacob - February 8, 2016

Hey mom, I guess I'll answer your questions from the get go. This week was pretty good, there were some pretty cool things that my comp and I were able to do. We had a ton of opportunities to serve this week. One activity was helping out a humanitarian organization, it was a lot of fun and we were able to play some basketball and baseball in this pretty big wear house type building. The other activity was helping out with a neighborhood clean up in our area. We just were moving a lot of old furniture and throwing stuff away for people. But we were able to do that with the Priests in the stake and after that we tried doing missionary work with them. Just talking to random people and giving out Books of Mormon. It was pretty fun. Also this week the other elders in my district had two baptisms. That was a lot of fun as well especially since I knew one of the guys that was getting baptized. I met him in my first transfer. He's a pretty cool guy that was dating a member so that opened the door for him and now he is a member. Another thing that was cool was that we had a lesson that was super good. We had a member family with us and we re-taught the restoration, but everything that needed to be said was said. It was super cool and the spirit was really powerful. I just hope the investigators finally make the decision to start acting one the commitments we leave them. Oh and for my scripture I want it to be Jacob 5:71. I read that analogy of the tame and wild olive trees and man it's super good when you figure out what it's relating to. So yeah, if you can change it that'd be awesome, I'd also talk to dad about it because he sent me some stuff about my plaque as well. Well I think that's mostly it, today I moved apartments which was t very fun. I don't even live in my area anymore, just the district boundaries. But it's all good, were pretty much all settled now which is why this email is pretty late. But I love you mom, let me know if there is anything else you want me to be writing about. Se cuida!
