I hope y'all had a wonderful week! This week was really good! First off, I wanted to apologize for not writing y'all last week! Super crazy week, it was! This email is going to be really good so y'all should be excited! Haha.
This week we started off by hanging with the elders and JJ of course😉. On Monday. It was super fun. We played games at the church all pday long. It was a blast. After pday we headed over to the Jones's for FHE when we got there it turned out that JJ's mom and dad totally forgot about it and so we just shared a brief message with JJ and his best friend Megan. They were also super nice and fed us dinner! Such a great day.
On Tuesday, we were able to see so many investigators of ours. All of whom were super friendly. But I would like to talk about this one investigator that we have. His name is Duane. Oh my goodness y'all he is so ready! When we were talking to him I could see him and feel that he is going to be baptized one day. So, let me explain a little bit more about him. Sister Fearber and Sister Jarman tracted into him. (I know right?) When we went back to follow up with him we asked him if he read the pamplet that we gave to him and he said he did and he really liked it! He said that it made him want to come back to church! Crazy thing is, is that he has actually been to one of our services before! When we asked him what he thought about the pamplet we left him he said, "I really liked it! It makes me want to go to another one of your services!" What! My mouth just fell open with excitment! So, we invited him to church and he said he will try to make it on Sunday!
Wednesday, was another good day! We went to the genealogy room in the morning and then went on a team up with Sister Riley and we saw a couple of less active families. One of whom said that they might come to church on Sunday! Wahoo! Ooh, how could I almost forget to tell y'all that on our team up with Sister Riley we had a tornado warning in Tville, It was so scary y'all! But the good news is is that no tornado touched down! So, after we ate our lunch we ran to the church building and stayed there for about an hour until the weather calmed down a bit! After our team up with Sister Riley we went over to branch correlation. It is always a blast with the Mondays. Love those people so much!
Thursday, we had district meeting and interviews with President Pickett! Always such a good time when we have those. Then we drove home and had some studies which we didn't have anytime for in the morning and went over to the Monday's for dinner. They are incridable let me just say that😉! This time it was different though we had his brother and wife there too. They are both really less active! We were able to share a video with them and talked about how they can build there spiritual testimony. It was great.
Friday, was another great day! We went on a team up with the amazing Sue Emmert who is a member. We were able to see a lot of less active members with her, which was great! After our team up we finnished up our studies and headed to a less active family so that Sister Jarman could say goodbye to them. They are the cutest! Then we did some weekly planning and had dinnner. It was a good day.
Saturday, we had transfer calls! It turns out that I will be leaving Tompkinsville! They are going to be closing the area for a while.😢 I will be going to Jamestown, TN (going back to Tennesse y'all!😁😁) to serve in a trio with Sister McNaughtan and Sister Fitzgerald, which should be intresting haha, but I'm super excited to see what will happen this next transfer! I'm also sad to say goodbye to the amazing people here in T-ville. After transfer Calls we went to breakfast with JJ and then packed and studied for a bit then went over to a birthday party of one of the members in the branch. After that we headed over to a wedding. Super awkward but it was good. Then we went over with the Hamilton's to hang out with them and watch the fireworks which we ended up leaving earlier than we thought we would. Over all it was a pretty good day though.
Sunday, was a bitter sweet day. It was mostly saying our rounds of goodbyes to people we love. We said goodbye to Sherry Hamilton, Wiltfongs, Mary Milam, Troy and John. (Cliff wasnt home) and our amazing Meninite friends Chuck and Susanna Clawson. Oh my goodness am I going to miss this branch or what? I loved this area so much because it has changed me a lot and I've made some really good friends here. Tompkinsville has been one of my most favorite areas.
I just wanted to say that I know that this church is true and that Jesus Christ lived and died for us so that we can be saved and be forgiven. I love y'all and hope that you have a great week!
Love,
Sister Jensen
Scripture of the week:
2 Nephi 5:18 And it came to pass that they would that I should be their king. But I, Nephi, was desirous that they should have no king; nevertheless, I did for them according to that which was in my power.
