I can't believe that I hit my 4 month mark yesterday. Yes, it's been that long!! Haha. This week we had a lot of amazing things happen, so I'm just going to get streight into it.
This week has been rough but it was good. We had zone confrence this week and it was really amazing. We talked alot about the Christmas initiative #lighttheworld. They told us that last year when they did the #lighttheworld the missionaries got 37,000 referrals. They are hoping we will get even more this year! We also, talked alot about facebook because it is now approved in our mission:)!!
On Monday we went to FHE (like always:)!) This week was different because we had 11 people there when it is normally just the missionaries, the westbrooks and Boogie. The Elders came and braught 2 of their recent converts, our ward mission leader Kaleb, and we braught Cynthia! It was so funny to watch Cynthia and Boogie together! After FHE Cynthia got a blessing from Brother Westbrook. It was really cool to see that. Cynthia had asked Brother Westbrook if she can come back next monday and he told her "of course!!" So, we are hoping she is going to come again tonight:)!
This weekend was rough because Sister Erickson got sick so we had to stay inside all day Friday and Saturday. Everybody was really nice about it though.
On Sunday we were asked to bear our testimonies last minute and I think it went really well. At church we had like 3 or 4 different things going on at once so it was really really stressfull. After church I had asked Brother Westbrook if he can give me a blessing. It was crazy because I didnt tell him anything about what was going on and I still got the blessing that I needed to hear. That evening we had a really cool tracting experience. It was really difficult because not a lot of people wanted to hear what we wanted to say so we decided to say a prayer. Right after our prayer we meet this women named Anne and she willingly let us in and we taught her the full restoration lesson. She seemed to agree with everything that we said. We set up a return appointment to teach her the Plan of Salvation! We invited her to be baptized but she didnt accept the invitation because she wants to know if this is the right church for her. We are excited for her to learn and progress and keep commitments.
This week we got a text from Alisha. She told us that she appreciates everything that we have done and she doesnt feel like this is the right path her her to take. We asked her if Addison was still intrested and she said she still wants to go to the church that she goes too. We were both super sad because we felt like our last lesson went really well. We know everything happens for a reason though. Some doors close so others can open.
I hope everyone has a safe and awesome week! I love and miss you all!!
Love,
Sister Jensen.
