Elder Purcell

Jared hit the 14 month mark on July 25th! He was transferred to Mt. Vernon, IL on June 25th. He is doing great, he is healthy and feeling good. 

We had a phone call from a truck driver that had stopped for church in Mt. Vernon. He was calling to tell us how impressed he was with Jared. He thought he was an outstanding person and missionary in just the short time he was around him! We so much appreciated the phone call!

These pictures are all from Columbia, MO.

An Easter egg creation.

A new friend to talk to.

Latoya's baptism.

Fish!

Julia's baptism, with Elder Duke, Julia, Lena, Elder Purcell and Nora.

Lena's Baptism. Elder Duke, Lena, Bishop James, Elder Purcell. If you could zoom in to Jared's name tag, you would see it is in Russian. Lena is from Ukrane and speaks Russian, so Brian sent Jared his Russian name tag. Lena loved it!

These two pictures were texted to me one evening. They are building this swing set for the Schramm Family. She told me she loves Jared and will be forever grateful for his example to her children, and for the service and good that happened in the Highlands Ward while he was serving there.

All the Schramm children, Elder Duke and Elder Purcell on the swing set they built.
