Camri has had the winter blues up there in washington. She can hardly wait for the sun to come out again. I can't believe that in six weeks, her next transfer, she will hit her half way mark.
She also sent us a letter from her current Bishop. You can read it on her blog.

First things first.... I'm the realest.
hahaha jk. I hope some of you got that. Its a song. I always respond with that whenever sister Shuldberg says "First things first". It probs drives her nuts but I think I'm quite funny.
Anyways! Transfers are here! And... I'm staying in Ephrata with Sister Shuldberg! Which is such great news to me! I'm not ready to leave Ephrata just yet :)
On Monday we were playing Basketball with the zone (I'm a straight up baller now btw) and Sister Shuldberg hurt her ankle :/ She tried to get the rebound, but she was going up against the biggest Elder in the zone! Hes a tank. So she fell and sprained her ankle. Its been really sad because she's been hobbling around on it all week. She even used crutches for a couple of days! We've tried to make light of the situation and every once in a while when shes walking I say "Nemo's swimming out to sea!" But don't worry its all in love :) Shes a trooper.
Jutta is doing great! Shes still progressing towards being baptized on April 7th. She hasn't been feeling well lately and she found out she has some sort of infection since her immune system is so low. Hopefully she starts feeling better soon :(
I got to go into Primary yesterday and help out since they were short on teachers! Those kids are hilarious haha. One of them got asked the question, "If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would you visit?" And the little girl said, "the temple". IT WAS SO SWEET! I think thats probably the very best answer to that question. Speaking of temples, my zone will be going there soon! Thats always exciting :')
Also in primary, the little girl I was sitting next to looked at me and said, "When I grow up, I wanna go on a mission because you make it look so cool". My heart could have exploded! I wish everyone was as nice as the little kids haha.
I got to speak at a little girls baptism on Saturday. I spoke about the gift of the Holy Ghost and compared it to a flashlight and going camping. When we go out camping and it gets dark a few things can happen. It can be scary, we can trip over rocks and hit into trees, and we might get lost because we can't see where we are going. But when we have a flashlight, we can avoid the rocks and trees. We can see in front of us and know if we're on the right path. And it becomes not so scary anymore. And thats exactly what the Holy Ghost can do for us too! He can help us avoid the bumps in the road and the temptations. He can make things not so scary anymore by comforting us. And he can help us to make the right decisions so that we can be on the right path. The path that leads back to our Heavenly Father.
On Friday we were doing our weekly planning and we looked out the window and it was snowing! I might have shed a tear. But all is well because it didn't stick and it stopped pretty quickly. It has been quite chilly this week though!
Tonight our ward is doing a combined FHE and we're going to play minute-to-win-it games. Sister Shuldberg and I get to be in charge of one of the stations. It should be a lot of fun! I really do love the people in this ward so much.
Well. I forgot my planner so I don't really remember what else I wanted to say. All of the weeks sort of blur together. Oh yeah! Remember Sister Shepherd? She got called as a Sister Training Leader! So she'll be companions with Sister Wadman! Now we're all gonna be best buddies haha.
I hope all of you have a very Happy Easter, April Fools Day, and General Conference weekend. CAN YOU BELIEVE WE HAVE A PROPHET ON THE EARTH TODAY? It amazes me. We are so blessed. <3
LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Love, Sister Jensen
