New Day

Sorry this is a weird time for me to email... but... I do get to email YAY!

Elder Millano and Elder Jensen

So I was in a trio for a week. and then Elder Findlay went home to Kaysville.   Elder Smith stayed in Apple Valley I moved down to Rancho a week early. Now it is just me and Elder Millano (he is from Rose Park). We cover the Cucamonga Tongan ward and the Victoria ward  (so that means I get to learn Tongan! I can already bless the food... thats about it though hahaha). I will be here for the foreseeable future... possibly until the end of my mission.

That is super cool to hear about the Bishopric change! Has it really been 5 years for Bishop Nelson??! YIKES!

That's awesome that the girls won and that the 3on3 went so well!

Well I probably will be emailing shorter than previously for a couple reasons, but never fear I am well and happy and fine! 

Love,

Elder Jensen

Celebrating 17-month day with Sister Viraldo and Elder Conner

Week 7

So yup this is a rarity. Week 7 of a transfer begins.... normally there is only 6.

This week was pretty average I guess.

We taught a lot more because we weren't sick anymore ( Thank you for you prayers). We also had MLC down in Rancho this week. So tomorrow is Zone Meeting and President  Hobbs is coming... so yeah...

We were able to teach Lyn and Lanice and we finally found some good fellowship for them. They were able to watch Conference with the members.

We taught Douglas and were able to watch conference with him too.

We found a new investigator in the YSA. Some sisters in our zone were teaching him but decided he would do better in the YSA so they passed him to us.

Conference was the Bestest! It was so good! I love hearing from living prophets and apostles!

Love

Elder Jensen

Ps. the Pictures are of the shirts we made.

 and how we decorated our house... not permanently though

This week was interesting....

This week was interesting...

So we had  regular stuff at the beginning of the week. we got new phones... that are terrible... i might have said that last week... but it is true.

On Wednesday I got to go on exchanges with E. Topham ( the elder i trained... my gosh that seems like for ever ago... sorry) anyway we had a great day together! I also got to do Shantal's baptismal interview ( Shantal is E.Topham's investigator who was also baptized on saturday). The Wednesday evening/night i started getting sick. 

Thursday me and elder smith both were kinda sick... but nothing terrible so we still tried to work. Friday we were more sick so we worked less and just made it to our appointments. then Saturday we thought we were better... but it was God strengthening us for our baptism. In the morning we got everything ready for the baptism( which thankfully wasn't alot because there was a baptism before us) and then the building coordinator lady threw us a curveball and told us she hadn't scheduled us or the other set of missionaries and that there were 2 other baptisms that were happening so we would have to wait.... but she was just crazy. We were the 2 baptisms that she had scheduled and she was just mistaken so that was a relief. Kenny was baptized and all went as good as can be asked. then after the baptism we just crashed ... like i said God strengthened us for the baptism, but after that we felt horrible. Sunday was about the same. Kenny was confirmed and we made it to the YSA ward. Then we had Easter dinner with the Packers. and came home and slept.

Today we don't feel much better... but we are happy :)

Love

Elder Jensen
