Jane returned from her mission in February and was honorably released by President N. Strait Hill of the Indianapolis Stake.  She returned to BYU to continue her studies.  It has been a blessing to see her take on so many responsibilities and keep moving forward with her life goals.  We enjoyed a surprise visit from her in August,

and she and I made a Peruvian dinner together.  She is utilizing her Spanish language skills as a volunteer and is taking Spanish classes at the Y to perfect her skills.

Bautismo! 18 February 2013

Lesmith se bautizó!


Hey, I'm writing to you in Spanish! Woah. Uh-oh.
 

So, I have a lot of things to do, and I don't want to spend
 a whole bunch of time writing (sorry),
 but it was an awesome baptism!

 
Really.


The members and everyone who was participating were there 

on time (miracle!). 

Lesmith was super excited. She is so sweet. 

I really hope that we can keep teaching her the commandments and everything so that she's set.

The members supported a ton. It was so cool!

I am so grateful for the opportunity to be here as a missionary.
 

Thank you for supporting me. Helping others is truly the only way to find joy, and facilitating their growth is the most rewarding thing ever.

 That's why being a parent is so sacred and important to our salvation. 

Families are the best! I love you very very much!


Love,

Hermana Jackson
