The one where she moves to Boynton Beach!!

 Hello everyone! Guess what?!?! It's transfer week!! Woot woot!! Sister Davis and I are coming to an end, and it's so sad! I love her to pieces!!! She will be training a new missionary thus transfer, and I'm leaving Royal Palm and Wellington, and I'm going to Boynton Beach! I'm so so pumped! This week was crazy, I don't even know where to begin:) 


Let's just start by saying NICK IS BAPTIZED!! AAAHHHH words can't even describe how excited I am for him:) the first thing he said after being baptized and confirmed was that he feels happy. All day, he was so nervous and stressed, and all of those bad feelings went away! He is truly amazing, and I can see the light beaming off of him! 

Anyways, helping nick get baptized was not easy haha there were many things trying to stop him from getting baptized! For one, we searched for what felt like every square inch of our zone to find Cafix! If you don't know what cafix is, it's a substitute for coffee, and it's like Perro! You can tell by the picture that we were so excited to find it in whole foods of all places. But hey! The Lord does provide! The things we do for the people we love, you know?!?!

Okay next thing on the list, I went on exchanges this week with SISTER FAUX! She is just the cutest! Love her! The crazy thing was, we had 2 meal appointments... I actually thought I was going to explode! Quite literally:) anyways, at one of our meal appointments, the couple gave us these cool Japanese sodas and we had to figure out how to open them! We definitely were riding the struggle bus at this point. They gave us zero clues, and it's a lot harder than it looks, but wow! It was so good:) inside the bottle was a marble (I'm not exactly sure why, but hey, it was for the mems I guess! Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not the biggest fan of cats. While we were giving a message after dinner, this cat comes up to me underneath the table and starts to rub up against my leg! Like, don't get me wrong, cars are super cute, but they scare me HAHA! This all happened while I was trying to bear my testimony:) we LOVE! Afterwards, we went to this super cool park because we wanted to OYM a bit before we had to exchange back, and found this massive shark, and you already know we took a picture in front of it:))

Anyways, I am so shocked that I'm leaving this area already! I just started to get adjusted, and Heavenly Father said, nope. You are too comfy! Change is always hard, but it's always possible to get through with Christ right by your side:) during church on Sunday, one of the speakers really just spoke to me haha when she said, "Jesus Christ does not always come when we want Him to, but He always arrives on time!" It's so true! We are on Heavenly Father's time! This is His plan of happiness that He created just for us! He knows what's best for us and when it's best for us! It's definitely not easy to fully lay aside everything, and completely trust Him, but I know that what He is offering us, is better than anything we can come up with ourselves!! Sometimes I imagine Him saying, "move out of the way! I've got this!" He truly does:) I am so blessed to be in Florida, thinking about Christ and how I can strengthen my testimony and others testimonies daily! I love being surrounded by people who share the common goal of coming closer to Christ! 

I just want to say that I love being a missionary! It's the best decision i have ever made, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!!! Love you all:) Ciao! 

Love, 
Sister Jensen

  Woa Guan Man! (That is how they say good morning in Jamaica!) Our friend Antonio taught us that the first time we went to see him haha! I just have to say, I love people. This week especially was just full of so many different kinds of people, and I LOVE IT!  I'm just going to sum this week up in some bullet points:) - Let me start with Joe... Joe came up to us in Bass Pro shop and took our whole district to lunch! He was following us around, and we were a little scared and then he was super friendly, and sometimes a little too friendly. He sat in between Sister Mcleod and I and we each went one by one around the table teaching the restoration HA! He grabbed Sister Mcleod's and my hand, and he was like staring into our souls... kinda scary, but he was an adventure to say the least.  - Also, I don't think I've ever been more tired in my entire life! Literally! We woke up at the crack of dawn on Wednesday to film a music video for the Creole Facebook page, and it was so...

Chia pets, and shattered glass!!

  Hola mis amigos! Another transfer; GONE! I'm staying in Boynton Beach with Sister Anderson:) Time is just flying! I am so grateful to be a missionary! Seriously, I wouldn't have it any other way:) Okay let's get to what all of yall actually want to hear haha!  We have been teaching this super cool guy, Adam. There's a couple things you need to know about Adam: he has no concept of time, he wants to be baptized, and he has a lot of girl problems lol. He is always asking us for relationship advice... like of all people he asks the 2 girls who can't even have relationships haha anyways we just sit and listen. But he really does want to be baptized, so we are working with him to achieve that goal! We made a deal with him that if he doesn't smoke for one week, we will quit sugar. That one didn't last very long. I'm not going to say who cracked first, but let's just say we had ice cream last night haha.  Now for the crazy. Because you know I can't go...

Dori said to "Just keep swimming," so that's what I did...

  Oh-M-Goodness! If I could put every emotion into one week, this would be the week. I'm not even kidding. We cried, we laughed, we died, we "swam", we sang, we were happy, and we were sad. Everything in one:) "BREAKING NEWS, 2 SISTER MISSIONARIES STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AMAZON FLORIDA JUNGLE" no im kidding. For starters, I have NEVER seen this much rain in my entire life. This week we had a literal downpour. It was basically raining cats and dogs! I think we had 29 inches of water, and honestly, we probably had more than that. We were heading back home from our tech council, and we got stuck on this one street that was backed up for days because it was flooded! Every time a car would pass us, our car would lift off the ground a little bit because the waves! We were driving through the ocean. It wasn't funny at the moment, but it was funny to look back on, and especially watch all our videos. I found that we got distracted a lot, and ended up praying i...
