Preachers and Flea Markets

This week was so insanely busy but that just means that the work is moving along and hopefully (fingers crossed) we find more people to teach! 
We had a district meeting and I was able to meet my district for the first time. It was weird and I found that when you put us all together you just get a room full of awkward and it’s so great! I love being a missionary! 
We went to a farmers market. It was about the length of a street but there were a lot of fresh produce and a lot of nice people so I think that it was a success! 
We meet this girl who was just leaving but she said we were welcomed back whenever which is another super cool thing! 
We have a mother and son investigators (S & S) we were able to give them a tour of the church. We went into the baptismal font to show them and they just thought it was the prettiest thing ever! I loved seeing the spirit working through them! The mom turned to her son and said one day we will meet there! How amazing is that! I can't wait for the day they are baptized! 
We met with a member, Sister Mixon, and she asked us to come and help her plant flowers in the fall! I miss planting flowers so I am a happy child! 
I have noticed that in the South a lot of people have no trespassing signs and beware of dog signs and they mean it! Some dogs are super scary! We were almost chased by like 5 dogs so it was super duper fun! We had one person open the door and then kept saying no, no, no and then shut the door so that was super fun too! 

Being a missionary is honestly the best! 

We went to the flea market on Saturday. A “preacher" (everyone in the South say that they are a preacher) stopped by and "preached" to us for 30 minutes. It was the most intense and scary thing in the world! I would not like to be taught by a preacher! A Lot of people took pamphlets and were super interested so we are hoping that if we keep going we will be able to find more and more people to teach! 
Sunday was great and sacrament meeting was so good! I said the closing prayer.
Today we played frisbee golf at the most confusing course in the world with frisbees from the dollar store! It was a ton of fun! I love being out here and feeling the changes that are happening with me! 

If you want a good read this week read in Alma 20 or Mathew 8! 

Well, I love y'all and remember to always be happy!

Love,


Sister Jensen
