This week was good. It had its ups and downs but in the end it was
really good. We have been working really
hard and trying to be obedient and happy.
Actually, this is the fastest transfer I have had in the mission yet. We are headed into week four and I can’t even
believe it. We have transfers on the 5th
of May, and hopefully we can baptize a couple more before then. Also, I really would like to stay in my area. I don't want to leave my little villa haha. I want one more transfer here before I have
to go to another area. I hope that elder
Gabriaguez and I get another transfer together because we get along great and
we are doing good work. |

As for this week we were working really hard to find new families
and meet new people and we were also working with Brian, Jose, and Yesica. The day of Sunday they were all going to get
baptized together but Jose had to go out of town so we rescheduled for the next
week. Then, Brian got cold feet and
didn't want to baptize and then we convinced him again, but his mom called when
we were changing to our white clothes and told us that she doesn't want him
baptized even though we talked to her 2 days before and she said that she would
support him. It’s crazy to see the
things that Satan does to keep people from making the best decision of their
lives or baptism. But Yesica was
baptized! She is 18 and the older sister
of Brian. She was so excited for her
baptism. Also she has a kid that's 3. Here is a picture of all of us! Next week Jose should get baptized. All is going well here.

As for the weather, some days are hot and some days are
cool but most days it’s mixed.
I started eating a little more (dinner every night), and it’s
been going good. I got your money and
the money from grandma. In like three
more weeks it would be awesome if you could send more haha. The exchange rate is double if I have the
dollar in hand. I started eating dinners
ever night so that is where the money is going.
I can trade the 50 for 670 pesos and it’s like 60 pesos for 3 pounds of chicken
breast. Ever week I spend like 200 pesos
on food but the mission covers most of it when they send me 1100 pesos every
month.
We have transfers in two weeks and hopefully I get to stay
in this area again.
Love you all
Elder Jensen
