Week 44 - Doctrine and Covenants 84:44 For you shall live by every word that proceedeth forth from the mouth of God.

Dear Jordan,
 
We are listening to the missionaries in church today. Andrea Wood is returning home from her mission the week. We enjoyed Conference over last weekend. On Monday mom and the girls went to dinner with grandma and grandpa Stamps and Aunt Chrissy. I rode my bike for about an hour. We then had FHE and then watched the Studio C season opener. On Tuesday, the girls went to roadshow practice, and I helped out. Mom taught her class. On Wednesday, the girls had roadshow practice. On Thursday, the girls had roadshow practice and grandma Jones came to watch it. The practice went well. On Friday, the roadshows for the stake were presented. The girls did very well and mom and I enjoyed the evening. On Saturday, Rachel and I went and dropped Hannah off at the high school for Engineering Day at the U of U. We then mowed the lawn and then Rachel went to a gluten free expo with Chandrielle. Sarah, Bekah, and I then ran some errands and then picked Hannah up after she ate at Leatherby's. We then did the shopping. We then got ready and went to pick up tickets for "Meet the Mormons." Mom thought they should make a "Meet the Real Mormons" movie. Mom and Hannah enjoyed it. Before the movie, we ate dinner. Holly had come with us to see the movie.
 
We hope you are doing well, how was the farewell for your old district leader and ward mission leader? Are you receiving very much rain from the Vongfong typhoon? From the maps, it looks like you should be receiving a lot of rain over the next few days. How are you doing? Is there anything you need? How is your Korean practice going? Are you still teaching your companion English? On the train this week, one of the people I was talking with asked what kind of food you are eating. I told them about kimchi. Any new kimchi flavors you've tried? Any difference in meals in your new area? Any fun activities you've done on your P-Day that you want to tell us about?
 
Some of the things that stood out from the Conference talks were about the sacrament, and the importance of Jesus Christ. I remember a couple of talks were about staying true to your testimony, so as not to fall away. Hopefully you will get to hear/read the talk given in Cantonese. You might be able to understand some of it.
 
We continue to pray for you. We think about you everyday. We are grateful for the great service you are providing. Before the movie, on Saturday, Deseret First Credit Union showed some ads of missionaries getting their clothes from the Missionary Mall. They brought back memories. In the commercials, DFCU actually bought the clothing for the missionaries, both elders and sisters. The ads were tearjerkers. Hopefully your clothes are still in good working order, if not let us know. :) 
 
We love you very much. You are wonderful. Keep working hard and love the people. You will continue to be blessed for all of your efforts.
 
Love,
dad, Mom, Sarah, Hannah, Rachel, Bekah
