Elder Jensens Mexican Adventures

 11 .... I do not boast in my ownstrength, nor in my own wisdom; but behold, my joy is full, yea, my heart is brim with joy, and I will rejoice in myGod.

 12 Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever.

Les amo mucho! 

See you on Wednesday!

In Sad News...

Well here we are at the end of all things.... Last week in the mission! Last week was really good. We had a zone conference which was full of fun and learning, and well the area is tough. We are doing lots of looking but yeeah, it's hard. 

And in sad news - my shoe didn't make it! It only had a week left! And it died! So I will be pulling out my extras for this last week, but I love you guys a ton and will be talking with you soon!

Consagrado

Well this was a great week, lots of learning instead of teaching. On Wednesday*** we went down to Saltillo (for my last time) and we had a really really good conference we learned about obedience and faith. My mission presidente gave me a pin that is called el misionero consagrado so that is a pretty nice way to be finish up the mission. And then it was general conference, which was super good! I liked it a lot, anyways I will see you guys in a few weeks! Love you a ton!

[And now our regular letter]:

This was a good week, but rather uneventful. We are working and working and working looking for news. We found quite a few but no one went to church! So we gotta go see if they really want to listen, but yeah all is normal. I was pretty sad to hear about Elder Scott... Well I hope all you guys watch General Conference! 

Con amor,

A Goooooooooooooood Week

This was a real goooood week. We are looking for new people and we didn't have tons of success until Saturday night while getting free hot dogs from our neighbors :) A family came up and talked with us and they are super interested! SO that was a cool blessing. Umm the zona is way different but its cool. OH it was the 16th of Sept (independence day) and there were lots of cool things, I took a picture of downtown which was cool. Also today for lunch we ate the impossible pizza at this pizza place. All is well, and its not as hot! But yeah love you guys tons!

P.S. Only 37 days to go!

Last Transfers

This was a very good week. It was the last week of the change so as a zone we tried to get tons of new invesgatores for the new transfer and the zone did really good. We spent most of the week doing that looking and looking for news. We today we got the changes which was very exciting because its was my last transfers ever, so I was pretty nervous and it turns out I am staying! One more transfer as Zone Leader and then I'll be home pretty scary! But probably the coolest thing that happened was on Sunday, we got to go be a part of the Mexico city temple rededication which was way cool, Elder Holland gave an awesome talk - it was very special and I liked it a lot! 
Anyways that's pretty much it, but I love you guys!

Oh yeah, in our zone meeting we drew Mordor for our zone, because we live next to Mordor! 

Noche de Talentos Misional

This was a very good week :) We had to tons of exchanges but I had fun heading out to some other areas. On Thursday we went down to Saltillo for another leadership conference and that was really really cool. I got to see my old comp Elder Aramburu again, and we had the conference in my very first chapel in the mission. It was pretty weird to be back there... And when we got back the same day we had a Noche de Talentos Misional which was the bomb. Tons of people came out and participated. I played a song in the talent show which was also quite fun. Ummm Today we went to a buffett which was super tasty and yeah, all it good up here in Monclovita la Bella.
