Dear Great mom of all moms. =)
I got good news and bad news this time. Really I guess it can go either way but I guess we'lll have to see. Anyways. . . Sadly I am getting moved out of here tomorrow to Palluse, Paradise Park. And I will be step training Elder Hogesty( I think his name is). So I am a little scared to train but hey I'm all up for it. I will have to tell you how things go. One of the Elders in my district told me its a way sweet area and the people there are great. He said I will be talking to alot of college kids there and I will be doing a ton of street contacting. I'm pretty excited. =) but sad to leave all the wonderful people here. They really are so so great and I really do love them. (And I'm not just saying it) I will be visiting this place again after my mission.
Well to tell you of some of the great things that have happen to me here. Yesterday we had such a great visit with the Clemitsons and we watched the Restoration video with them. The spirit really was there so strong that time when I watched it. I knew for a fact they one of them had to be feeling it. And Amilia was. She told us after this movie she had calm feeling inside of comfort and she told us that she didn't wanted it to end and the she wanted to have more of what happen to Joseph and wanted to have us come back soon for dinner. So I told them we would bring more next time and that we will go more into detail. She said that when she was young that she always had a Catholic Priest come over every time she was feeling sick and would pray for her and help her. But she said that she never felt good about him for some reason. Then she looked at us and said " But I feel different about you guys. I feel... Good every time you come over" So I know for a fact that she feels the spirit. She will probably be getting baptized real soon. Sadly I wont be there.
Also do you remember that lady that I was teaching in Moses Lake that was a Jehovah witness? She was the one who was going through all the divorce problems and had her kids taken away from her. Well anyways I heard she got baptized recently. One of the members went over to her house and pretty much just called her out and said " I know that you know this church is true" And she just started crying and said " Yes, I know its true." Its just neat to see how God still works even when your not there. =)
We also had a very neat experience here yesterday. We decided yesterday that we should go pass the high way and tract down there in the hood. (since we never went down there.) So we go down there and none of the houses were letting us in and I really was just having a bad attitude about everything. Finally as we were walking I decided to have faith in God that he would guide us in the right direction and that I needed to have faith. The next house we knocked on some Indian answered the door. Believe or not he let us in. So we sat down and started to talk with him and he told us that it was funny that we showed up at the door because him and his wife were just talking about what church they thought they should go too when we knocked on the door. So now him and his wife and he will be bringing all of his friends to our church next Sunday. He was very prepared by the lord. It was amazing. =) I wish I could be here next Sunday but I guess I meant to be somewhere else.
Things here have really been so great. There have also been other great things that have happen but I just don't have enough time to write them all down. I love you so much mom and hope things keep going well. =)
Love-
Elder Jensen
