If I would've known...

So to start the weekly off here is a little story... Our mission is trying to do more service referrals through Facebook. We have gotten a lot of people that we can do service for so we are #blessed. But...there was this one lady who asked us to come and do some yard work. The only time that worked for us was 1:00 in the afternoon. South Carolina in June at 1:00 in the afternoon is so hot and humid. But...we did it anyway. We showed up and we mowed her lawn with a push mower and the grass was knee high on me! We could only do like half her yard in the 2 hours we had available. When we were finishing up, she said that if she would've known they would be sending two girls to do it, she wouldn't have asked for it. I am glad that we could serve her but learned a very valuable lesson... if you are going to do yard work in the summer in South Carolina, do it in the morning before the hot and humid weather hits!

We got to do a lot of cool things this week! We had zone conference and it was so much fun! We have a big push on studying the Book of Mormon and we have been challenged to read it in 90 days. I am so pumped! I love the Book of Mormon. We were able to set up a family history thing at a gas station and it was fun! We put on a poster one of our ancestors that served in the military and put a sign up to see off anyone wants to learn more about family history. We are going to do it a couple more times in the month because "Merica". 

We also got to be part of a Fourth of July celebration and it was so good! There was some crazy cool talent from other faiths and it was a blast to get into it. My favorite part was this guy who did the "I Have a Dream" speech and it sounded like Martin Luther was actually there #shooketh

Lisa is getting baptized on Saturday and I am PUMPED! She is just the cutest thing ever and I can't wait to see what the gospel brings into her life!

If you want a good read this week read "Where Is the Pavilion,"  by President Eyring. 

Well I love y'all so much and stay blessed!

Love,
Sister Jensen
