2nd Email from NC

Hello Friends and Family,
Elder Jones here with a weekly report for Y'all. (Look at me usin' my foreign language) Things this week have been a little slow. not as exciting as last week so im sorry for the dissappointment.

Monday was P- day yay the busiest day of the week. geeze. Sorry to You all for not getting out letters its hard i don't have time. Now alot of you are concerned about my adress so here lemme clear that up right now. USE THE MISSION HOME ADRESS. It is easier for everyone involved if you just send things there. 1 because i might be moving soon and 2 i dont wanna deal with sending my adress every transger then deal with letters being sent to old locations so it is just easier for me and the people working at the office to do that. and 3 it's only 1 days difference that i would get a letter so its ok. anyway. P- day ends at 6 so we went out tracting with no success. Lots of doors slammed in our faces and what not.

Tuesday I'm just going to say right now that tracting bore no fruits this week so i dont have to bother. but we did have a lesson with our investigator David. He is pretty solid. He grew up Methodist and turned away from religion, but when we talked to him he said he was "hungry brother" so we gave him BOM and he is reading. Hopefully he continues to read and feel the spirit. We are going back to see him on tuesday.

Wed. we had district meeting where we report the weeks works and role play to become better missionaries. then we had lunch with a member then we started tracting but my companion and i felt sick so we went back to the apartment. and that is where things went downhill for me. i never got to feeling better but Elder Butler did. any way we went to see some partmember families and a former investigator. So maybe we will have some work we are supposed to see them this week. so thats potetially good.

Thurs we did our weekly planning and tracted nothing much.

Friday we had our appointments fall through and our tracting did not go very well. that night we went to see two former investigators one was home and we talked for a while he is being held back by his family. ugh. and the other one wasn't home so nothing productive.

Saturday we didn't do a whole lot i was feeling pretty bad so we were inside until we went to give a blessing to a nonmember more for her member mother, but oh well we did it. then it was back to sitting in the apartment. It has been really hard for me to be sick like this. i cant do anything yet i want to its been pretty hard for me.

Sunday church and then the hospital. They couldn't find anything wrong i have abdominal pains and am feeling nausea so i dunno i dont feel well. the dr. said it was acid reflux but the mission dr. says that it cant be because the pain is in the wrong area. it has not been fun so we are still trying to figure it out so pray for me ok.

Keep on praying for the people here and the specific people i said last week.

Pray for David that he might feel of the spirit as he reads and as we teach that he may feel the truth of what he is learning.

well that's about it for this week. so i love yuo all and you are all in my prayers. I will continue to endure. and hopefully i can feel better. Whatever the Lord wants for me i will follow so thats whats going on over here. love you all and keep me updated on what is going on at home and i will let you know what is going on over here. love you.
Elder Jones
