Elder Jones was able to call his family on Christmas!!! It was so wonderful to hear from him. He's grown so much and you could hear all the happiness and excitement in his voice! His favorite Christmas gift was a patchwork quilt received from his mom. It had a lot of different photos on it from his mission, sealing and trips to Nauvoo and Palmyra. He loves the Bremerton area and the people there. They had a baptism the day before Christmas. That was a special experience for him. Each baptism is different, special and has a special place in his heart. He is still District Leader with 3 companions. They all got matching ties for Christmas. They had Christmas dinner at a members home. He had some of his older companions that he loved return home before Christmas. That was a little difficult for him. But he's made so many life long friends. What a great experience this is for him!!! He loves you all and wishes you a Merry Christmas!!!
