Cookies


This week was so good!!
We made cookies for all of our college friends who were taking midterms this week (I don't miss those). 
It was beautiful this week, so we were outside a lot more. We studied outside one day, we had lunch with the sisters in the park, I missed just being able to be outside. We went to Nauvoo for zone council, that was lots of fun and I got more pictures outside of the temple, I wish it was open. We went to a member's farm and helped them clean out their greenhouses, once again it was great to just be outside, and I love serving others. If you are ever having a rough day or just need some cheering up, go and do something for someone. No matter how big or small, it will brighten you day! 
It wasn't a very eventful week, Brandy and Sabrina are both doing great! Sabrina watched church, her life is so crazy and busy right now but she is still making time. Brandy is great, he is just loving everything he's learning and we're going to meet with his mom this week and answer any questions or concerns she might have. 
I love you all! Have a great week! 
Love, Sister Jones

  That sounds like a fun week! B is still doing good, he's reading the Book of Mormon a few verses at a time and he really likes it. He came to church last week and was sad that he couldn't this week, it was stake conference and was during his parents church time so he wasn't allowed to come. But he'll come next week and it will be great! Next week we are going back to 2 hour church, that's exciting but it might be a little rough getting some people there for all of it I'm excited to get a little closer to normal though. Sounds like Grandpa had a good week! Did he actually smile when you teased him? I think he likes you better, I always got an eye roll and a "knock it off."  My week was really quick, we went up to Iowa City to a trainers meeting which was so good and I got to see Sister Chatelain! She is so cute and I miss being comps, plus we're not supposed to message other missionaries in our mission so the only contact we have is...

Week 3

How was everyone's New Year's? mine was pretty quiet as far as celebrating goes, I had one class which was great and then I helped my mom around the house a little bit. I studied and was in bed around 10:30 because I was tired. But my week was great, Sister Chatelain and I are both getting comfortable teaching together and applying all of the skills we learn each day. It seems like every time we have a bad lesson or notice something we struggled with it comes up in our next class. So that is great that we see what we need to work on and then we are taught how to improve on it. I am so grateful for my companion and how well we are able to work together and get along. It has been so much fun getting to know her and just talking about the most random things in Comp. Study.  I watched some really good devotionals this week in my free time and my favorite was an MTC discussion with Jeffery R. Holland and M. Russell Ballard. It was great to see their love for each othe...

Week 2

Merry Christmas everyone! have I mentioned how much I love the MTC? It is so great to be a missionary and be learning so much all day long AND to be able to share it with my family. So some sad news first, my trio's down to two, Sister Lockhart had to go some for personal reasons. We will miss her but are still hopeful that she will come and join us later when she can. Sister Chatelain and I are having so much fun together and there has been a lot of bonding this week both as a companionship and as a district. It is so hard to believe that I only have two more weeks before I'm done at the MTC and I become a full-blown missionary. It's going by so fast and I am so excited to go to Iowa and serve the people there and just teach so many people. Every class just gets me more and more excited to go out and teach people and give them this knowledge that gives me so much joy.  This week we talked a lot about the Book of Mormon and how to teach with it and how it is so...
