“Hurrah”
for the New Jersey Morristown Mission!
What an amazing month we have had.
But then how can it not be when you focus on LOVE, the kind of
Christ-like LOVE that Jersey missionaries show and give to so many people each
day. Our missionaries over 110,000 contacts
since March 1, 2014! We are so proud of
their efforts! We will have between 40 and 50 baptisms this month! “Hurrah” for ‘Hastening the Work of Salvation’.
Our
final 11 incoming missionaries came in the last week and 18 terrific
missionaries returned home. Elder and
Sister Burt also departed. They gave so
much LOVE and effort serving in their branch, taking charge of the apartments
and helping missionaries with whatever they needed. We are welcoming Elder and Sister Vause to
the greatest mission in the church! A
big “Hurrah” shout out to them all!
We
LOVED being together at our All Mission Summer Conference! “Hurrah” for Food,
Fun, Friends and shared Faith made for a day we will remember for years to
come. Memories of Jersey, Joy and the
Jeppsons, we hope, will be lasting memories as well. For what can we say to 264 amazing
missionaries but “WE LOVE YOU” with a big “Hurrah”!
Our
relationships have become stronger with our missionaries and our LOVE deepened. We are fully aware as we LOVE Heavenly Father
and the Savior more, our LOVE expands and we feel more deeply that kind of LOVE
in our hearts that we need to have for others.
We
love the rally call “Hurrah for Israel”.
It is a call we can all say within our hearts whenever we leave our
homes to be examples and share the gospel with others. We LOVE our family and are anxious to be with
them again. It is a bitter sweet time for us.
We LOVE everyone who has supported and prayed for us here in Jersey;
Ward and Stake members, families of missionaries, children, grandchildren,
extended family, friends, members of the New Jersey stakes, thank you. We thank our Heavenly Father for the
privilege of serving and LOVE our Savior and Joseph Smith who gave their “full
measure of devotion. We have LOVED serving these amazing elders and
sisters. “Hurrah” for LOVE and “Hurrah”
for the New Jersey Morristown Mission. A
mission that will be engraven in our hearts forever! The JEPPSONSINJERSEY will soon be
JEPPSONSINUTAH….doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, now does it? Put up the
banners….we’re comin home!
Well it’s hard to say
goodbye and let go, and it’s hard to see it end
When the memories we have
made, we know will never happen again
But’s it’s harder for time
to ever erase that together the time we shared
So when we’re apart
remember, at NJMM together
All the fun and good time
we’ll hold dear forever!
“Hurrah” We
LOVE you, Dad and Mom, Grandpa Jon and Bon Bon, Jon and Bonnie, President and
Sister Jeppson NJMM
