We became legendary!

January 9, 2017

Hey everyone! It was another great week for Elder Deyholos and me.

So...not many missionaries can say they drove their mission presidents car...But WE can. 😎 We went to lunch with President and Sister Henrie and they needed to get two cars to the office afterwards but they wanted to drive together....so we became legendary and drove the Presidents car.

We also had a cool lesson with Dom. She's 17 and has a lot of Mormon friends. She has kinda gotten caught up in the California High School life which isn't the best, and she really wants to change and become a better person! We talked about repentance and how it means to change. We walked through the process together and talked about changes we can all make to become better. We explained that our goal should be to become like Christ and that he isn't going to make us do it all on our own. That is why we have the Atonement. At the end of the lesson she said.."I think I want to be a Mormon." It was super cool to hear her say that. She sees that this will help her change and she's felt the Spirit touch her heart!

We had dinner at President house this Sunday and it was such a good time. We just talked and joked around and really got to know them. Sister Henrie is a super good cook!

Transfers are coming soon and we have been planning for it like crazy! We think we have it all set but then there will be "pull backs" as we like to call it. We see or hear something about a missionary and we just know it won't work out how we have it. It's pretty cool how God gives us those things so we can put people with the companion he wants them to be with. It's a pretty awesome revelatory experience and I'm learning so much.

Well I hope you all have a great week! Love you all

Love,
Elder Jensen
