4.6.12 letter

{Finally got a paper letter from our Elder!}

3/31/12

Family,

Hey! Figured I would take a couple minutes and finally get a piece of paper in the mail to you. So here ya go! :)

Everything is going good; this area is sweet! I'm loving every moment of it. I'll be honest, I was a little irritated when I was taken out of Livonia, but the second I heard & saw my name up on the board under Bloomfield, I had this peace come over me and I just had this thought, 'This is it, you're called here now, so go and work.'

Covering both the Bloomfield Hills family ward and the Young Single Adult Branch is fun; 6 1/2 hours (at a minimum) of church on Sunday is awesome. We're doing a lot; it's a good thing I have my planner, or else I'd be lost!

So, how is Spring treating everyone? Anything new or exciting that doesn't get to me by email? Just curious! :)

Well, hey, I'll be calling home on the 13th of May. Can you let Todd & Corine know? I'm not sure what time I'll be calling, but I will be!

Speaking of that... please don't talk about coming home, how many days I have left or anything. I don't wanna think about it, k? :) I wanna stay focused.... I don't wanna come home! Sounds bad on your side, but if you could see & feel what I (or all other missionaries) do, you'd understand. :) Brett will find out soon enough! :) Hope you all understand and are willing to submit. ;)

Well, hey, I gotta bounce. Looking at the mailbox for ANYTHING. :D :D :D Love you ALL!!!!

Elder 'Nye-Nye' Jones 11-13

D & C 101:36... "Wherefore, fear not even unto death; for in this world your joy is not full, but in me your joy is FULL." Don't worry about a thing, for your joy will be full as long as you continually come unto Christ. Love you!
