One Year this Week

 

P-day at La Isla

Somethings on Pablo. He is 14. Son of a member and that is how we know him. He came from Buenas Aries and sadly is moving back Tues. There might be a chance he stays Ojala. It's ok because we help he get a knowledge of the gospel.

 

Anyway I really do feel good inside and happy, loving towards people.  I think that is something that makes me us happy

We had a very great conference with President Lovell. The best one I've had. And I gave a talk there. We all prepare a talk beforehand and then he calls on someone to give it. That person was me. It was good. Thanks to the Spirit. About integrity that was the theme of the conference.

Thanks for Sharing your journal entry about your hump day. I was touched and I feel the same, maybe exactly the same.

Thanks for living the Gospel. There are a lot things I could share, but I'll save them for later.

God loves you.

Love Elder Bransen Jensen.

PS Your quote "that girl jogging is really cute" is from Collin Hands down. Your is´´ I ve been sarcastic since i was 4´´

We are a trio

First of all Happy 16th, Emzer is a oldy.haha. She is great. Sounded like fun at Em´s party.  I hope you had fun. Now it sounds like she going be dating a ton, at least more than I did.  She is starting an age that I remember well. Que raro. we can talk about that latter.

 

Wow Grandma and Grandpa have a new car. Que capichosa.

 

We live in the Villa Vega area of San Martín.

 

We have a new companion. We are a trio. He is from Canada and is a brand new neuvoismo. So that is fun. He is a real good kid. The other day we had a member, so I divided with him and went to some investigators and miembros, while the others went contacting. Good for me. jaja. It does not bug me to contact that much. We have found good people doing it.

 

Right now our best investigator it Pablo. He came to church 2 times. and has a date for 30th to be bautized. So we are hoping a lot.

 

I am not sure what to share this week but thanks for sharing your learnings.

 

Love you God loves you

 

Love Elder Bransen Jensen.

 

Your quote "This is the most beautiful place I have ever seen .. today"  is from Em or Coll. Your es ´´isn´t Tuesday Thursday.´´

The work is going well

Congrats to Nate and his new wife.  Sounds like you had a busy week.

I'm glad you are in the corner of the mission field.  Remember example first and then work will come naturally.

The cold here is not as strong as it is in Utah. I like my comp.  He's funny he kind of like Nate.  I am little congested in the nose. I love the mission. I love feeling the spirit touch others. I love learning from my mistakes and the rest, even though it is hard.

The work is going well in some things. We found a golden investigator.

We are teaching Pablo Herriea. He is 16. He is a really good kid. He is the son of a recent convert. Keep him your prayers and we have others too.

 

My comp and I were talking about the difference between watching a friend or comps say goodbye than watching someone say hi or goodbye to their mother. It is the same when someone says a prayer or testimony, if the person is close to God or really belives in Him, compared to someone that might say nice things but does not really believe or love God.

Thanks for all you do and for always writing me.  

Les Amo Dios Les Ama.

love Elder Bransen Jensen.

Your quote "Here comes the Ikea man" is from Em to Ashley. Yours is ``fire truck burnin``

Our area is awesome

Wow everyone is getting married with two in the near future. Congrats to Nate and Nat and their future spouses.

 

My new companion is Elder Randle. He is great. He is very happy and a good missionary. He has 1 and a half years in the mission. He is from Logan Ut.

 

Our area is awesome and so nice looking. We have more people to teach. Someone we did not know before accepted a day to be baptized, so that is awesome. The work is doing better and will be way better this week. We have a goal as a mission to baptize by the 30 of Aug, so were looking for many for this day.

 

I think it is key to always to improve the language, or the Lord humbles you sometimes. Sometime I am not sure if am good at the language, and other times and now much more often, I feel comfortable, and I've been helped a lot by comps and the Lord. Gift of tongues are real. I really love the language. I'm going to study it after the mission. It amazing what one can learn on the mission.

 

Thanks for sharing everything. It is the only entertainment I have. jaja.no I just like your letters.

 

I ll look for a good story to tell you next week, my next letter will be great I hope.

 

I love you God loves you

 

Love Elder Bransen Jensen..

 

The "whaggts". is form Owen and he sounded like a bird when he said it. Your quote "I'm not a redneck I'm a pink neck" is from Ashley. Your quote is ´´hay you got a buggy in your house´´

Always give the Lord thanks

P-day

           Mission President Interviews

Wow what a week, Collin and dad did camping, and Em is going camping with the cousins. Thanks for the updates I like hearing about my bro and sisters.

I like the comparison you made of balance beam.

I am getting new comp to day. Elder Randle. I don't know him yet. My other comp is going home. 2 years is done for him. The weather is rainy, not that cold. yay. I do my best to take care.

 

I learn much from the mission. It is hard, but it is the best thing I have decided to do in my life. When everything has a purpose for where you are, it helps. I know that the companions I have had. and the area and everything was pick by divine revelation, even if we don't realize it. I have had the chance to know and become friends with many great missionaries, and members, and nonmembers. I'm learning to trust to the Lord more. I'm excited for this week. We had the chance to meet new people and teach them the gospel.  I'm grateful that I get to learn a new language.

I've learned to be more grateful.  The Lord sends the Spirit more, if you really put effort in thanking God than ask for things. It good to ask for things and it is really necessary to do. But thanking is a necessary thing too, and God will bless if your more grateful. Try it. Always give him thanks.

Not much different happened But there will be more.

thanks for everything.

I love you , Dios les ama.

Love your son Elder Bransen Jensen.

ps your quote "I liked the story in conference about a tabernacle over your head"  is form Em, Your is ´´whaggtss!!´´ (what)

pss tell me what your want to know.

Happy Pioneer Day

Well I'm glad to hear that you are all right, and that your weekend went well. It is crazy to think that you already had Draper Days and Kemp Reunion. I was thinking it was still later.

I like your photo. It is important to remember are Pioneer ancestors. And their story. I don't know if you know but I could find my line up to Adam.

Thanks for your spiritual thought and how we can be obedient exactly without being perfect. I must say my sincere deep desires is to help.  I have grown a lot. I really care about the salvation of all especially those here. I need to be better in spite of weaknesses and fear, because faith, and peace overcome those cosa. I like what you said about that. I have learned and learning a lot about doing and of being. In this week I put more focus in the work and spiritual things, and having prayer in my heart and my head to help me keep focus, and to stay at peace. to guide my thoughts. It is hard but we are imperfect. Sorry if what I just wrote does not make sense. I want to write what I am learning but don't know how.

AND yay it is hard to see a family with great potential not be willing to do those things that would change them forever.

 

Yesterday I told one our investigators, right before we left, that he had big arms, and he does. And my comp was laughing for sometime after that. I surprise myself. They are the Hija and soninlaw of a member

Well, have fun. Be good. I love you and God Loves you.

Love Elder Bransen Gene Jensen.

your quote  "It's got to true since I wrote it in my journal" is from Ashley, your quote from me is. ``...4. 4.. 5..5.. 6..```6``...`` hint: vacation

I'm enjoying the mission in a true powerful way

It is true about what you said about the mission. The miracles and the experiences don't seem to be there, but are subtle. I find that to be more helpful in growth. I believe it seems like Youth Conference and AFY or what ever are like dry pine needles on a fire, woow fire and testimony spirit so fast, but those experiences like a mission or building a house in Mexico are like putting heavy wood or coal on a fire and if we endure it burns for a long time. We grow slower but a more solid conversion. I think. For this reason I love the mission. I am enjoying the mission but in true powerful way.

I feel really good. Sometimes I feel unprepared to be here. But I feel that the Lord has been helping me a lot, to be who I am. and to fulfil my purposes here. I Love the Lord and feel that I am converting solidly to Them through Them. I love how the Lord is so willing to help us, and me. No tengo palabras.

We have great to desires to find a family listo and waiting. We work with Family Del Pino muy bueno but hard evangelic. We want them to join the Church so bad. They would be such a good addition, and the father would be such a good leader and teacher, but does not want to pray to see if José Smith was Prophet or if the Libro de Mormón is true.

I don't have any funny story that is funny sorry. Next week I´ll try.

Love you love

Elder Bransen Jensen.

ps your quote is form Tys. Your is ´´ When I am married I am going to make my wife the biggest and cherriest pie ever.´´
