A Billionaire let us in his apartment

This week was transfer week. I'm happy to report that Sister Mendez and I are staying together for another 6 weeks! This means we have Halloween and Thanksgiving together, so excited! But we sadly had to send Sister Limón (one of our roomies) home to AZ today :( we already miss her so much

We got to usher for Music and the Spoken Word this week. It was seriously so amazing and everyone needs to go back and watch it. After the recording ended the choirs continued to sing for 30 minutes and everything sounded beautiful. 

We've made it a goal to get to know all the senior couples more and this week we went to the Goolds. Between Sister Goolds love for chocolate, Elder Goolds ability to have many amazing talents and their phones constantly going off as loud as possible I felt like I was at my grandparents house. They're the cutest!

Guests constantly ask us why we pay to serve here and the answer is simple, love. I havent felt great this week and square has been slow but regardless of the circumstances I have still loved being here and its all because of my love for this gospel. I just love Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father so much, I wouldn't be here if I didn't.

Romams 1: 8-9 
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. 
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers
I love you all and hope you have an amazing week! You are prayed for every night, don't forget it and don't let those prayers go to waste. 
<3 Sister Jones

First and Last Member Meal

Image
Happy Thanksgiving!! Thanksgiving, p day and our only member meal of the mission all in 1 day, sorry if I don't respond.  There's nothing Utahns dislike more than California. Everyday this week I've had someone go on a rant about how much they don't like CA. I might start telling people I'm from AZ or something just to avoid the shade being thrown. Jk I'll always claim Orange County. They all make a point to say how much they like Disney and Newport though.  The Christmas lights turn on tomorrow! I think we are more excited about that than we are actual Christmas. This also means that our schedule changes  from 6:30-10:30   to   7:30-11:30.   But church and relief society still   start at 7:45  on Sundays and Wednesdays so pray for us and our lack of sleep. I'm gonna be honest Thanksgiving is probably my least favorite holiday. I don't eat a ton of food, I'm not a fan of pie, stuffing or yams but I love the attitude of being grateful. Gratitu...
