Got a few photos from our missionary son this week.....but nothing for details. Looks like he is trying his hand at the sport that his sister loves so much.....Also looks like good people are taking good care of him. He looks happy! What else could a mom hope for?
Updates from Elder Jensen's experiences as he serves a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the California Rancho Cucamonga mission for two years.

Catch up from a few weeks!
Yup so this week was windy and cold again... like really windy for here and colder than Canada I guarantee it.... Whose idea was California anyway... there's not even anything cool here or anything like that hahahaha jk
I Actually love it here!
So this week when we taught Warren we just read out of the Book Of Mormon with him... He hasn't read on his own and it kinda hard for him to because he is almost blind... but we did get him a big one.. so he should be able to read it... anyway him not reading is kinda frustrating... so that is that
This week we had President interviews!...not much to report on that. we talked alot about commitment , our commitment, my commitment, our investigators commitments and all that jazz it was really good.
It was also my comps Birthday this week so we had cake and cupcakes and cinnamon rolls given to us which was nice... but super unhealthy hahah
Love y'all!! Stay safe and have fun!

It was an interesting week... the regular spiced up with some irregular.
We weren't able to teach Warren this week... Either he wasn't home or " It wasn't a good time" when we try'd to see him. so that was sad... but he did say we could come back this week.
We were able to teach Rebekah and Ethan but Jaime left the room and didn't seem to interested :(
BUT! Rebekah did pressure Ethan to read out of the B. o. M. and invited her friend to come back to church with her! SO it was Awesome to see the missionary spirit spread !!
We have been playing a little more Basketball recently. There is a young man preparing for mission, a less active young man who used to want to go on a mission and some potentials/ Friends that we play with it has been pretty fun!
Sunday was the highlight of my week! We were able to skype home and talk with our families! It was awesome to see them again!! We also had dinner that night with a convert lady and her husband. She is preparing to got through the temple and then they will be sealed together for time and all eternity! She has two kids from a different marriage and they are the funniest hahah The older boy is 11 but acts way more mature which is actually really nice to see! and the girl is like 6 and super funny hahah.
We walked a lot this week because it was crazy windy... like almost SOAB status! crazy windy! hahah all good though!
Well this is it

Service and Such
| Elder Jensen(back row, orange eyes) with other crazies! |
Jaime and Rebekah and Ethan came to church again. I think that Rebekah is more ready to come back than Jaime is to join but its all good we will get them there.
This week Pres. Hobbs asked/told/encouraged me to read even more from the Book of Mormon than I would normally do in my personal studies. As I did this I remembered why I love that book and learned so many cool things. Like Enos prayed for a whole day BEFORE God ever talked to him and then after that he prayed for everyone else. Just simple little things like that. But it is wonderful. If you don't already read that book on a daily basis I would encourage you to do so. I can promise it will change you life!
As requested by Cynthia next P-day i will email home my Jacob 5 comic strip!
Love
Elder Jensen
