Hola mi familia!
Another week has already come and gone, can you
believe it?? This past week has been pretty slow with a few interesting
stories. The first story is about this drunk guy we call the
"prophet." He is always drunk and thinks he is a prophet seeing
visions and stuff. He always trys to stop us and give us a blessing.
Can you say the word crazy?? This guy is completely nuts, my
companion and I just get the biggest kick out of it. I wish you could see
how this guy acts, haha. When he's sober he doesn't believe in God, but
when he's drunk it's a different story.
Monday, we had a new missionary meeting with the
President. It was his first meeting too, so everyone was new.
Sister Douglas cooked us breakfast and lunch. Oh my laws, that is
the closest thing I've had to a home cooked meal in 3 months!! It was
soooo good, I actually made myself sick from eating so much!! She even
had chips & salsa, yummy!
We are continuing to teach our investigators and
really making progress with a few. My spanish is getting better, but I
still have no clue what people are trying to tell me. Compared to my
first day in the MTC, I'm doing really well in Spanish. My feet are
getting better, so thanks to everyone who's been asking. We continue to
walk and sweat alot, and I'm happy to report I've lost about 20 pounds since I
got to the field. So by the end of 2 years, I oughta be in pretty good
shape! I'm learning alot and I really realizing that I can't do anything
in my life without the Jesus Christ beside me! Missionary work takes alot
of work, and there is no way a person could do it without having divine help
and intervention! Its a really cool experience to run into our
investigators and see smiles pop up on their faces an hear them yell,
"JENSEN!" It makes me feel good knowing I can touch other
peoples lives!
I received the package today!! Thanks for
everything inside; the cookies are really yummy!! I think somebody at
customs ate a few because the bag was open with the cookies inside. It
must have been pretty expensive to send it so quickly, but thanks I really am
grateful for it!! Last week, haha, I bought chocolate! It was
expensive, but it's darn good!!
Sounds like things are going really well and
home. Busy, busy, busy. Sounds really hot too! I hope you
guys get some rain!! I hope the coming week is full of fun adventures!
I love you all and I'll talk to ya next week!
Love always,
Elder Jensen
PS. I'm sorry about no pictures, I've been
slacking off, but I promise to take more!!
