Dear Family,
So this email won't be quite as
long, with Sister Eckery going home on Tuesday things have been a little out of the
ordinary. She has her temple trip today, and I am with Sister Shurtleff (my
trainer) for the day! We are so excited! We also got permission to go and visit
some of the people that we taught, so hopefully can catch a couple of them this
afternoon. Biggest tender mercy ever :)
We got to visit a lot of people
since I wrote last! We taught I. a little bit about the Plan of Salvation, she
loved it. We finally got to meet with R. again, things have been crazy at work
but he is still looking forward to being baptized. On Friday, we went to visit
a member in the ward because we heard they were having some health issues and
could use some uplifting. Well, we went by and talked to her on her porch for a
little while, the weather was lovely. She is a convert of several decades, so
she told us all about her and her husband joining the church. Then she told us
how she was just having the worst day, very stressed by a lot of things. When
we asked if there was anything we could do for her, she just asked that we say
a prayer with her. We said it and she was just so appreciative, told us it was
the most beautiful prayer and everything that was said was needed. We saw her
again on Sunday and she told us that everything worked out! I was just thankful
for that opportunity to see how prayer really does work, that Heavenly Father
really does answer them in the best way possible. We may not always think it is
the best, but He sees the bigger picture when we can't.
I think I am going to leave it at
that for now, but I actually have pictures from the last couple of weeks so
hopefully that will make up for the short letters. Next week will be a little
crazy too, I am not sure who I will be with next week, since Sister Eckery is
going home a week before the transfer ends. I just hope to be close to my area
so that we can teach and visit people. I love you all so much!
Love,
Sister Jensen
