Sorry it's been so long that I've written. Every p-day I've just been so rushed and not had time to do a whole lot. But yeah, anyway all is going good.
I'm in a new area, so this is my fourth zone. I'm opening up the sector that I'm in and it's super super amazing. It's just that we don't have a house there. So we're traveling 30 there every day then at mid-day we travel back to where we are living to eat lunch at a members house and then at 4 we have to travel back. We go in a bus. It's about 6 dollars every day, but everything is going well. There isn't a church in my new area either. So yeah, haha, almost none of the people there have seen or talked to missionaries. It's super cool.
We have a couple we are teaching that said they will be baptized the 10th of February. They are super cool. There was one night when they said that they wanted more time to be baptized cause they are getting married the 7th and then being baptized. They also said that they want to have read all the Book of Mormon and have more knowledge and stuff. It was a stressful lesson, but we were able to talk about how important baptism was and how it can bless them and their family and all that. The Spirit was there and it was a really good lesson. So they said yes for that date and yeah we are still teaching them and helping them out.
Well, all is going well. My knew comp is called Elder Romero. He's 26 and from Bolivia. He's got about 3 months left in the mission. So yeah, we're working hard and trying our best to use our time wisely. The other missionaries are super cool! We went and watched Zootopia today as a zone and there's a pic of us on the bus to the church so yeah I'll send that. Anyway, I love you guys so much and hope all is going super well for everyone!
Love you all! and bye!

I, Mom, want to add what Aunt Amy sent to you and forwarded it to us as well, I thought it was so cool, I wanted to add it to your blog.
Dear Elder Pollock,
So Friday I was at work and Mark Miller from the radio station came in to sell us some advertising. He saw my name plate and asked if I was Jackson’s mom. I said, “No, I’m his aunt, though!” He said, “Where is he? Is he playing ball somewhere?” I said, “No, he’s actually serving a mission in Ecuador.” He said, “That’s awesome! He was always such a nice kid! I still remember when he went in when Casey Cole got hurt. He was so calm and just acted like it was no big deal! It was impressive! I’ve also talked to him on other occasions and he wasn’t afraid to talk to me or look me in the eye. He’s a good kid! Tell him I said, “God bless him!”
So there you go! It’s always fun to be related when they have such wonderful things to say about you!!! I hope you have a wonderful week!! We are praying for you!!!
Love,
Aunt Amy
