Out east to Naco-nowhere =D

Hey y'all!
I was transferred to Nacogdoches Texas! The work here is so different
than it is in the city, but it is so much fun! Now I feel like I
really am in Texas! We are the farthest out sisters area! It is a
very humble area. The personality here is great! I already love the
people so much! This is the oldest town in the entire mission! And the
town part is tiny, but our area is huge, it would take almost an hour
to drive across the whole thing! The people here are SO friendly and
can really really really talk! We spend a lot of time driving and a
lot of time listening to people tell stories. We are becoming pros in
the art of interrupting...
The Ward is very very small number wise, many of the less actives
don't come to church because it is so far away from them. So
geographically it's huge.

My companion is sister Ricks. She is from Springville Utah. She is
awesome we get along so well! I can tell this is going to be a great
transfer! She is such a hard worker! We are so motivated and excited
to kick up the work in Nacogdoches.  We have already seen so many
miracles! Our investigators pool has doubled in one week!

Bre and Luv: two SFA college students we teach, they have a date for
August 22nd! They are such cute friends =)

Bridgett, Destiny, and Diamond Akridge: family we teach, Bridgett is
the mother of Destiny and Diamond, those girls are SO smart!

Annette: 84 year old sweet woman we taught for he first time yesterday
and set a date with her for August 29th! We aren't sure how much she
understood, but she LOVED our visit and we love her! <3 she just
needs some company, she needs the Ward family!

Jessica: we met her yesterday as well! We knocked on her door and she
let us in without even knowing who we were yet! That's east Texas for
you! She opened up to us and told us her story and cried when we
shared our message! She was such a miracle!

Charity: a less active girl we are working with, she LOVES Disney! She
drew me an Olaf picture! <3

We are also working to get Ashely, Phillip, and Janna to the temple,
they are all three recent converts.

Love,
Sister Jones

Last dinner in The Colony! The Joneses and Alexis were there!
