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 an email without talking about crazy Boynton Beach! Someone rear-ended us on Sunday and shattered our rear window. Like I'm not even joking, the window is gone. Now we are driving around with a trash bag taped to our car. I know. We are pretty legit right?! Right. It happened in a split second. The other sisters were driving and the glass just blew forward and as strange as it is, Sister Anderson and I both immediately ducked and covered. It's kind of funny actually lol. 

Quote of the week: "you don't need pets. If you have phones, you can have chia pets!"- one of the recent Converts said that at our big recent convert picnic:)

I just want to say how cool it is to be a missionary. To be set apart as a missionary. To have one purpose in life right now. It's the best thing ever. I love to see and be part of watching peoples lives change because of this gospel. It's a testimony to me that this gospel is true. Heavenly Father provides a way for us to be happy. This gospel is a gift for us. The gospel is a protection against the world. I want to invite you all to share an experience you've had about going through trials in life this week with someone you feel needs to hear it. Those people are waiting to hear YOUR testimony specifically. 

Love you all, 
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...

  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...
