In the Home Stretch

It's hard to believe that in a little more than 5 weeks, Jaden will be home!
Crazy! That means I really need to get crackin' on getting my house in order!

Jaden is doing well.  His new companion, Elder Mortensen, is from South Jordan.
I think that's only the second companion he's had from Utah.  Well, maybe third.
Jaden says Elder Mortensen is a hard worker, and he was hopeful in talking
with a few people this week that they'll pick up some new investigators.
It's been a tough area, and overall a tough mission trying to keep investigators.
Hopefully, Jaden's planting seeds and that someday those who he's 
had opportunities to meet and share his testimony with will have
a desire to learn more about the gospel.

Jaden's been brief in his letters lately.
 He didn't say a lot this week, but he did send a couple of pics.
He took pictures with some other elders, but not his companion.  Go figure.

 Above is Jaden with Elder Jones.  He went to school with Jaden's 2nd cousin, Grace.

Elder Pelina is a whiz at the piano and is in Jaden's zone.
Not sure if they were meeting for a zone conference or not, 
but I assume that's why there are so many elders in the background.

Thanks again for all of you support.
I can't believe this part of Jaden's journey is coming to an end.
I'll keep everyone posted on his coming home!
