Letter 82 Exchanges

Hey Everyone!

It’s been a pretty normal week here in California! Elder Boulette and I have been working to find new people to teach as well as help the ones we are teaching. The Chengs missed church, but Ariana and her boyfriend came which was super cool! We are glad they were able to come. 

We also had the opportunity to go on exchanges this week. I went to Walnut Creek area with Elder Jensen and he is from St. George too so that was a fun exchange. It kinda reminded me of Glendale so we fit right in when we knocked on people’s doors saying “Hi, we are Elder Jensen and we are from St. George, nice to meet you!” Well that was pretty much the only thing that happened this week that was different.

Other than that we have just been knocking on more doors and biking a lot! I love it so much here! We did get to watch the funeral for President Monson and I am super excited to see who will be in the new Presidency for the church. I know that President Monson is a prophet of God and I know that the apostles were chosen by the lord to represent him and I am excited to see the church organization work and move forward. Have a great week everyone!

Elder Jensen
P.S. The first three pictures below were sent to us by Elder Jensen's former Young Men's President, Lance Douglas. He works in California and has a home right in Elder Jensen's area! He saw some missionaries on bikes and chased after them thinking it had to be Elder Jensen! Well, it was Elder Jensen's companion, but he was on exchanges with another Elder! (First picture). Brother Douglas was so disappointed! Luckily he was able to see Elder Jensen the next day at church where they had an awesome visit! He called us and told us all about it and sent us these pictures!

These next three pictures were sent to us from a member who had the Elders over for dinner! I can tell that this is an awesome ward!
