Hello, Hello,

Sounds busy and crazy at home! Change is not fun, but in the long run it helps us grow! That is different than out here, not much has changed. But it may be all turned upside down with next week being transfers. In many ways I don't want to leave Wilmington, I have really grown to love some of the families here, which, like my last area, will be hard to leave, but for the work to get up and going here they need someone that is not all involved in the drama of the branch! Not that I want to be involved, but as missionaries we just get all the info from all sides, as involved as we are! But anyways, I'm alive and well, don't worry about me, you have a lot to deal with at home. With your work, my guess was pretty close, I was thinking Home Heath Care, and you know what, I was right :) You will do really good though, I'm excited for you! Don't worry, you will do great! Love you Much!

Love Elder Jade Grover

P.S. It's exciting to here that Jens is excited to come out! It's the best thing he could ever do! But also remember to enjoy the last bit of school as well while you have it, don't be too rushed, it will come sooner than you know it!

Hello Hello! 

It sounds like thing are changing all over the place back at home, I wouldn't even know where I was at if I was home! You know, one thing that is really, really hard for me is change, well it still is, but I have learned that a lot of good can come out of it! God can't help us grow if we are just staying at the exact same spot, right? But yeah, things are good here. Boy, the warm days have been nice, I am super excited to have another summer, I think I like the work a little better when its warm, but either way there is nothing better then serving the Lord right? So they took Jesse out of the Missionary work, huh? Man that must be hard, but I guess his strengths are needed in another phase of the work of salvation, God Knows what is the best for us and others. And that goes for every thing we do, we just need to let go of what we want and be happy with what we get because he knows us better and knows where we will do the most good. So, I have a question, what does Rocky Mountain Home Care do?  I know where you are talking about, but I never really knew what it was. I guess that shows you how much I know about things.  But yeah,  I cant think of anything I am in need of, I may need some medication before long! I sould be good for a couple weeks, but you never know, I may be transferred. I am thinking I will have another transfer with Elder Ziegler, but you never know, I thought that with my last companion. And for some reason the members here think my time here is running short. Its an awesome place to be, I've grown to love it! But yeah, stay strong, and keep the faith! I love you Mom, You are amazing!

Love, Elder Jade Merlin Grover

Good Morning!

Well, I bet that everyone is moving slow again this morning with it being Spring Break and all. Man, I am enjoying the spring time weather we have had here the past couple of days, it just makes me want to get out and get some work done! But, I hear that its going to snow again tomorrow. My companion is stoked about that, he is very much like me except for one thing, and that is that he likes the cold. Talking about tomorrow though, guess what? I'm going out of the mission boundary, with the whole zone, so don't worry :), we are going to go to the Columbus, Ohio Temple! I am super excited, its been quite sometime since I have been able to go to the Lords house. But its even better because I thought I would have that much more time before I was able to go! Things sound really exciting there at home, and just so you know, I already knew that Jordan was a Stud! I'm really glad that he had the opportunity to show the community what he has been doing, he is one heck of a go-getter! I wish I could have been there to watch! But yeah, things are going really good here, I was able to have a very good talk with President Porter yesterday at a Mission Fun day thing, which was why I didn't write then, but I think he was able to help me out, as I strive to do the best work I can! Love ya Mom, take care and Keep the Faith!

Love, Elder Jade M. Grover

Hello, Hello,

Things here in Wilmington are going great, other than having church canceled again yesterday, that sure does not help with the progression of the work, oh well. The reason they cancelled was because we had a crazy storm come through, just a one day thing. Saturday night the ground was clear and the weather was warm and Sunday we wake up to ice followed by snow, so now we have 4 or 5 in. of snow on the ground again. Everyone here freaks out over a little weather like this, its actually not that bad, and we actually used the day to visit some people who are far out of town, it really wasn't that bad!  But either way I sure would have rather had it hit you guys in Blanding, you need it way more than this place does. I guess I better stop praying for you guys to get some moisture, because it might be getting misinterpreted to getting more here :) It sounds like things are nice and busy there at home, I hope everything goes well, I keep you all in my prayers.  The next load of missionaries will be coming out soon.  Yeah, I know about the trying to get to Brazil thing, I have 2 Elders in my district (they are actually companions) that are called and waiting to go to Brazil, and I think have been out for more than 6 months; no sign of their visas coming soon either. So, just pray for Jens not to go there, or on that case you could and he will probably get to spend most of the time in the states, just like you would want it to be! Haha, yeah I shouldn't joke about that stuff like that, but that's what came to my head :) But anyways, keep hanging in there! I love you, the lord loves you and will always be there for you when you trust in him! Thanks for all you do for me! Love you Mom!!!

Love Elder Jade Merlin Grover 

P.S. Man, Jordan's Dance team is coming down, that is so cool! That should be really fun, I hope that the community will give it the support that it should get! I would go if I could :)
