From Dance Floors to Devotion: The Jones Family Journey

In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Troy and Sarah Jones to hear the inspiring story of their family’s journey—from their first dance at a UVU institute activity to building a Christ-centered home in the 3rd Ward. Moving into the ward during the height of the pandemic, they share how an unexpected knock on the door from Bishop Wood helped them instantly feel welcomed.

Troy reflects on serving a mission in Thailand and his path as a software architect, while Sarah opens up about her passion for dance and how motherhood ultimately became her dream career. Together, they talk about balancing faith, family, and fun—whether it’s throwing the kids into a cold lake to “force a good memory,” restoring a family cabin in the mountains, or raising daughters with unique personalities and talents.

They also share meaningful thoughts on parenting with intention, the importance of prayer in family life, and the quiet but powerful ways the Spirit guides their choices. With warmth, humor, and love, the Joneses invite us into their family story and remind us of the blessings that come from gathering—both as families and as a ward.
