Gotta go back for the Iguana nail...

 Happy Monday! I'm going to be honest with yall, not a lot has happened this week, so this is going to be a shorter email:) 


We decided to go biking for like the first time in forever it felt... let's just say we are sore now. Note to self: bike more so you don't get sore, and instead get ripped! Jk! No but we biked to Chigozie's and found out some very valuable information about her and what she believes about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith! As we retaught her the restoration this random woman named Elizabeth came by the house and sat in on our lesson! As we shared the first vision, she was in awe and the spirit was SO STRONG! Anyways, the next day when we went by, Chigozie had read just the intro and did some studies of her own, and then ended up teaching us the restoration haha! It was awesome! 

Then we get to the next part about our biking adventures... we're just riding along, and then Sister Mcleod screams at me that we have to go back to the dead iguana on the sidewalk so she can get one of the nails from it... hahaha So we did, and she got her nail! Fun fact: iguanas are really hard to cut! 

Side note: we filmed the most EPIC music video this week for the Find His Light page, sooo once again, keep your eyes peeled! It's going to blow your mind hahaha

Anywho... we were able to go over to our friend Ileana's house and help her move into her new place! It was SO HOT outside! Before I even know it, summer is going to be here, and I'm going to be dying once again! The weather here is just built different. Anyways, it was super fun, but as we were getting further into the moving truck, she noticed that all her paintings and pictures had been ruined by the floods! It was just heartbreaking! 

In church this Sunday we talked a lot about ministering to the one! It was perfect because I felt like this week as a whole was very much about ministering to the one, like Ileana for example! Here are some of the notes I took in church this weekend:
- perfectionism is comparing our weaknesses to someone else's strengths
- God doesn't compare us to others, He instead compares us to what He sees us to become
- Adam first had to fall before he could have joy
- we are on the path TO perfection
- What you are is enough for Heavenly Father 

I know that God sees us, and He sees our efforts! NO EFFORT IS WASTED! Remember that all things are possible through Christ! Love you all! Have a fabulous week!

Love, 
Sister Jensen

Elder Morrison said what??!

  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...
