Week 15 - HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!



In Camri's  words, it was a slow week. She is saying goodbye to Sister Wadman. That should be interesting deciding whose clothes belong to who. Camri continues to have an amazing attitude and sense of humor through it all. She had some great one-liners for me today. She is so funny when explaining some of the things happening to her. It sounds like she is being watched over and protected. She is going to eat one of her T'giving dinners with her bishop. Thanks for your support and Happy Thanksgiving.

                                                                                                                                      
BIG NEWS: I'll be receiving a new companion this week! Her name is Sister Shepherd.  She's from Utah, she's been out for 2 more transfers than I have, and shes serving in Goldendale right now.  Thats about all I know about her... oh and shes a beast at basketball.  But I bet I could still take her ;)
I'm super excited about it! I'm really sad to say good-bye to Sister Wadman though so it's bitter-sweet for sure.  Sister Wadman will be going to Yakima to serve in the YSA ward there and shes going back to her companion that she had right before me, which is kind of strange but super cool because she already knows her. 
Don received the Priesthood yesterday! The next step is going to the temple to do baptisms so hopefully that will be happening soon! He wants to know where in the scriptures it says he can't go to nudist communities.  "I'll take your word for it and I understand why.  But I wanna know where in the D&C it says that so I can tell my other nudist friends that its in black and white." haha so if anyone has some good scriptures for that..... let me know. 
Oh I got asked to speak in church in the YSA ward next week! And I kinda can't say no cause I'm a missionary... so that'll be happening.  I'll let ya know how it goes.
For some reason, people were pretty salty this week when we were tracting.  We got more doors in our face than usual.  And some dude wanted to know where angels come into everything.  He was like, "We are humans but then theres angels too, so where do they come in, how do they fit into everything?" We tried to explain the pre-earth life and all that but he didn't wanna hear it.  Its so weird to hear some of the things people believe... he said he felt bad for us that we didn't know the answers to things.  And he also was upset that we didn't offer him salvation?? His name was Tony.  Nice guy. 
I've eaten so many Thanksgiving meals already! Its been very nice of people, but at the same time, i wish people wouldn't be so nice, ya feel? I'm about sick of turkey and stuffing... haha but we're going to about three different thanksgiving meals this week soooo that should be fun.  I don't think i'll ever step on a scale again if these people keep giving me food.
I'm gonna be honest, not a ton happened this week.  We had an awesome lesson with Annette and Joey's family! Annette said she feels like its true but shes waiting to be smacked in the face with an answer.  I told her my story about getting an answer to come on a mission, and most the time its not a smack in the face, its the good feeling that shes already felt.  They have a lot of potential, and Don lives across the street from them and he keeps asking them if they've read the Book of Mormon or if they've decided when they're getting baptized.  Haha so he's being a missionary and helping us out. 
Ummm thats about it for the week... love you all! Have a GREAT Thanksgiving.  AND DON'T FORGET TO LOOK UP THE NEW VIDEO FOR THE LIGHT THE WORLD INITIATIVE! Its up the day after thanksgiving :))
love, Sister Jensen <3
