A couple weeks ago, we got to take one of Nathan's converts to the MTC. How cool is that?! We get to see the ripple effects of Ntahan's mission already. We knew when we said our hard goodbyes, that it would all be worth it in the end. I love already being able to see all his hard work paying off!
The family Nathan grew closest to over his mission was the Rices. They are kinda the bomb. Lydia basically lived over at the Rice's, and she joined the church! Nathan was one of the missionaries who taught her, and got to speak at her baptism. She is 19 now, and got called to Atlanta, Georgia!
She came to Utah on a Tuesday. Shane, one of Nathan;'s old companions, picked her up, and we met them down town for some fun! Nathan got to take a half day at work, so that was awesome.

After playing around all day, we went back to our place, and invited over some more people from the St. Louis mission. We had dinner and hung out. It was a lot of fun!

She stayed with us Tuesday night, and then we took her to Provo the next day! I have never dropped a missionary off, and let me tell you, it's crazy. From the moment we stopped the car to the moment she was being led away was about 45 seconds. Luckily we got a few pictures! She was so ready. Not even nervous. We are so excited to see the work she does over the next 18 months. Yay Sister Jones!!
