Moving out and heading to the airport. We just did this 12 weeks ago in reverse. Elder Jones is off to Chaguanas on Trinidad. We expected we might lose Elder Jarvis, not so. The "J" team has served well together.
They have been a distinctive duo traveling around the roads and paths of Tobago. It is tough to say goodbye.Elder Jarvis was a little lost without a companion for an hour while we did some errands waiting for Elder Ackerman to arrive from Trinidad. He wasn't idle, however, he shared the gospel with several people and invited them to church.
Elder Ackerman is fresh from the MTC, as was Elder Jarvis 4 transfers ago. Now Elder Jarvis is the trainer. Elder Jarvis was with Elder Bartron for 2 transfers, then Elder Jones 2 transfers. Elder Ackerman is from Idaho and Elder Jarvis is from northern Utah.
They look like a hardworking companionship after two days together. They have attended a branch scripture study and PEC at the Rosses plus lots of visiting and contacting. There will be a baptism Sunday morning.

You will love Elder Ackerman. He truly has a 'Warrior Spirit'. His gentle spirit and strong testimony will draw people to Christ.
Elder Jarvis is our nephew and Elder Ackerman is a dear friend of our family. We wondered when Elder Ackerman was called to the West Indes Mission what the chances would be that he and Elder Jarvis would met, let alone be companions. What a great pair -- it will be fun to follow their story. Thank you for posting these wonderful photos and thanks for all you do for these great servants of the Lord.
Mike & Vickie Jarvis
