#35/36 Exchanges, exchanges, exchanges

 Sorry I didn't send out an email last week. I wrote one out but just never sent it. So here's a quick rundown


- I went on an exchange with my favorite Canadian AP Elder Sturko 
- My new ward loves missionaries 
- General Conference was awesome! Listen to it if you haven't already

This week I got to go on a couple more exchanges which were really fun! Elder Decker has only been out for 2 weeks, but he's already doing amazing. And the exchange with Elder Rogers was awesome too! 

I got to do a baptismal interview yesterday which was really great! She was so prepared and so ready to make her first covenant with God! 

This week I've been focusing a lot of really remembering My Savior Jesus Christ. One talk I really loved from conference was Elder Stevenson talk about how we can focus more on Christ. I love that we get to focus completely on him this week and everything that he has done for us. His suffering, death, and Resurrection were all for us. The love that I feel from him is better than anything else in the whole world. I really enjoyed it the Holy Week study plan on Gospel Library. It goes through different study topics for each day of the week. I'd love to invite you all to look at and follow the study plan for the rest of the week. And remember to take time to ponder what Jesus Christ did for you! I'm so grateful for him and for the knowledge that I have that he is risen!

Have a great week!
Elder Jensen

#10 Transfers and Dia de la Familia

  Andrew Jensen Oct 15, 2024, 6:51 PM (3 days ago) to  ande0822 , bcc:  me What's up everyone?! I hope you all had a fantastic last week. Mine was very eventful so let's get into that. First I'll start with the transfer news. Both me and Elder Judd were sorta transferred. He is now a zone leader and he has one of our wards (Alexander) and a Spanish ward. I have our other ward (Painted Desert) and then Mountain Crest. My wards are in two different stakes which is weird for my mission. My new companion is Elder Hansen. This transfer should be pretty good. It's also different because it's only 5 weeks because of Thanksgiving so it'll be pretty fast. I'm sad that I'm leaving my papi Elder Judd but Elder Hansen will be a great companion. This past transfer had been hard to find lessons, but this week we had so many miracles. We met new friends who are awesome and very interested in progressing. We had some great lessons this week. The best one was with this o...

#5-Viva Las Vegas

 What's up everyone!? This past week has definitely been crazy! There's been a lot that was good and a lot that was hard, but I guess that's missionary work for you. If you didn't hear last week, my first companion is Elder Judd who I went to high school with. It's been really fun to talk about home with him. He thinks it's really crazy that when he tells his stories I actually know who he's talking about   My first area is in the Meadows stake which is northwest Las Vegas. We cover two wards in that stake. If you guys have never been to Las Vegas and you want to know what it's like, just imagine Idaho, but like 10-15 degrees hotter and where you see grass, instead picture rocks and dirt. Other than that it's not too different from what I know. But the drivers are a lot crazier which has made for some fun car rides. But I guess I have seen a bit of grass because one area is a little more wealthy so they can afford to care for grass. Also most of the ...
