February 9th




Mom,
So today I'm in a trio in another area which explains the unprepared state of these emails. All I want to say is thank you for making us have family scripture study almost everyday, even though I disliked it very much and most of the time I would just be day dreaming anyway. I've learned the importance of it, and it's a habit which will be passed into my future family. So thank you for laboring to follow divine counsel. Hopefully you're still doing it even if you are just about empty nested. Next week's email should be packed with information about how sweet this area is and how awesome some of the people are, sorry about the neglect today. but I'm off. Love you -Elder Jacobson

Dad,
My next companion is Elder Davila. He's from Peru but he lived in Provo from most of his life. Luckily his native language is Spanish so I think we'll be alright. the next thing is that they closed Spokane valley, and by that I mean that before we just covered the city and two other Elders covered the valley, but now we cover both the city and the valley, which doubles our work load, and quadruples our planning necessity. The next issue is that Morelos knew this city like the back of his hand and now he left... Elder Davila has been out one transfer less than me, but he's a good man. He was formerly in the Valley so I know him pretty well as we worked side by side last transfer.
We have several anticipated baptisms this month and had one on Saturday so everything is going well.
Thanks for all your support and keep doing what you do. Love you -Elder Jacobson
