Hey dad! I hope you are doing well.. I sent a letter home.. I think I’ll send another before I leave telling you guys about my spiritual experiences I have had so far! I’ve been thinking a lot about you for some reason and I’m not exactly why? I’ve got this feeling where I should just ask how your doing? Is everything okay dad? I miss you and love you.. Know that I’m doing my absolute best.. it didn’t take much to adapt or anything.. I’m doing good :) I was asked to give a talk in sacrament meeting the other day. I sent you a copy in the letter I sent.. ------ this is what I sent grandpa..
Hey grandpa and grandma!! I’m having a really good time.. I never thought you could learn this much, be this tired and feel the spirit as strong as it’s being felt.. being in this MTC is such a blessing. They take time to work with you one by one and teach you what you could strengthen on and work on! Thanks for those scriptures and thoughts.. I’ve printed it out to study it a little bit more! The other day I was assigned to give a talk in sacrament meeting.. I talked on obedience and then compared that subject to the pioneers and there obedience.. I told them that they all have a pioneer either being converted or having an actual pioneer cross the plains for them. I then compared to us as the express riders.. we are out here giving our life's up to save the people, to rescue them from the cold, from the world and basically just save them spiritually.. im learning so much everyday. I’m so grateful to be out here. I am going to be in the MTC for about 10 more days and then I’m off  to good ol LONDON :) I’m thankful for your examples and for the love you guys have given me.. also for the prayers!! I sure do love you grandma and grandpa! - Elder Jones-

DAD I just want to thank you for everything..I’ve thought about your example and the miracles I have seen happen through you.. I hope and dream that I can do something such as that! love you-- love bub
