I killed my companion🔫😥





 Buenosssss diasssssss!

How are you all doing? I hope you are doing so so good! I hope it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas for y'all. It is actually the BEST TIME OF THE YEAR. 🎅🎄⭐️

¿Que paso esta semana?

😳 We were walking home past a bunch of teenagers and they yelled at us, "youuu I like" but they said it in really really broken english. This was right after a member asked me if I was married to one of the elderes (nada que ver) so ummm yeah that was a fun day. 

🐷 A member brought out a pig head-guys a literallll pigs head that they had eaten the day before and I about lost it🤢 LUCKILY it was just to show us and we ate empanadas de carne normal😌

💃We had a line dancing activity that was actually really successful and so so fun! Unfortunately this old dude tried to force me to dance with him. I was like nooooo noooo noooo and I think I offended him, but I explained that we can't do that in the mission (not that I want to dance with a 70year old man...THANK HEAVENS for las normas)

⚰️🇨🇱 Got transfer newsss and I am staying in Rio Grande! I killed Hermana Juhasz (meaning I was her last comp before she went home). We had a funeral for her and it was hilarious. Necesitan verlo. 😂And my new companion is from Chile. She got here at the same time as me and I am so excited to work with her.🎉


As far as amigos go...we are searching for those ready ready ready for the gospel! We put Bianca on date for baptism, but sadly she lives in the area of the elderes.😔 So we have to give her to the elderes, but she is such a light. We asked her if she wanted to get baptized and she said YESSS AND EMPHATICALLY NODDED! It was like she had been waiting her whole life for that question🩷 God is preparing his children, we just have to follow his guidance and open our mouth and do what he wants!

 This brings me to my spiritual thought! I was reading in Alma 26 and GUYS I LOVE THIS CHAPTER SO MUCH! It is such a happy chapter, pleaseeeee go read it. It talks about the blessings of being diligent and patient and look at this list:


💖Rejoicing

💖Innumerable blessings

💖Light without end

💖Instrument in God's hands to save many souls

💖COMPLETE joyyy

💖strength to do all that God needs of you

💖eternal salvation

💖God's mercy

💖Mysteries of God

💖comfort

💖sucess

💖Many fruits of your labors (exponential impact)

💖More gratitude

💖Change in who you are to be more like Christ


I am sure we all want at least one of those things (seguramente queremos tener todos) so what should we do? Be patient and be diligent. Trust in God and give it your all. He's got the rest!

Los amo muchisimo, demasiado

  Hello everyone!! Hermana Jensen coming to you live from...home.  For the past week, I have been doing home MTC and it has truly been a great experience. The hours of staring at a computer screen while on zoom can be VERYYY long, but I have learned so so much and I am so very excited to be able to meet my district and my companion and my teachers in person at the Mexico MTC. (Here's a cutie picture of us on zoom). The typical schedule is something that I always wondered about before I started my mission, so I figured I'd let yall know. We wake up at 6:30 then exercise, get ready, breakfast, and personal study til 9 which is when my morning class on gospel doctrine is. Personal study is SO AMAZING. It is for one hour and I just get to enjoy feasting on the word of God during that time. I love the Book of Mormon so so much and I feel like I learn new and important things every time I read it. After my morning class I have a workshop and then a break for 2 hours and th...

Me bautizaré en STAR WARS🌊⚔️

  What is up y'all! Another great week with my first CONFERENCIA DE ZONA woot woot🎉 It was in Ushaia and guys it is soooooo beautiful there. It is also quite literally the most southern city in the world. Zone conference was really really fun to get to know all the missionaries and to see Presidente y Hermana Phelps.  On our drive to zone conference, I got introduced to the game TRUCO. It's basically Argentine poker and guys it is so fun. Basically when I get home, my life WILL be gambling lolol🙈😂🤞jokes jokes I promise. Anyways during truco, we started talking about Star Wars and two of the elderes are very passionate about the correct order to watch and whatnot and they literally started TEACHING ME Star Wars very similar to how one would teach the doctrine of Christ. Slightly overwhelming tambien. I was like oh dang this is how it feels to be an amigo.🤔🤦‍♀️ I said wow, I feel like I just got taught star wars and then another elder said ¿Sé bautizará? (Will you get bapt...

Toilets actually do flush backwards here

Image
  iHolaaaaa! Wowowow it has been the craziest week of my life. We finished out the CCM in the greatest way possible by getting up at 3 in the morning😴😆 then flew 9 hours to Buenos Aires. I was in a hotel there for a couple days before coming to my first area. And the toilets do indeed flush backwards. I lowkey thought that was a myth, but it is real and kinda weird. On Thursday we got told our areas and our companions...andddd DRUMROLL PLEASE🥁 It's called Rio Grande and it is FREEZING.🥶❄️ Mostly because of the wind, but wow it is cold. And my companion is Hermana Morales. I love her. She is so kind and literally goated at spanish.  I landed here at 4 in the morning friday and we got to work. It feels so surreal to be a missionary and to proselyte, but it is so cool. I would say someone pinch me, but I am already getting slapped in the face by the cold and by the spanish...🤔🤣GUYS the spanish is hard. At times I can understand, but finding my own words is tricky. Even thou...
