Life is good here in Washington! We've had lots of members asking us how the pandemic is affecting missionary work, but for the most part it hasn't really. We are still able to tract, and visit people, at least for now. That being said, people are a little more weary of strangers knocking on their doors, which is understandable. We don't shake hands or give hugs, and we stay away from sick people, and wash our hands. So we're being good citizens still. And there are many people who are now home for us to talk to...
We met a cool guy this week named Ed! He was a referral from our Bishop, so our first lesson was with Ed, the Bishop, our ward mission leader and his wife--needless to say it was pretty powerful. He is very humble already, and he had great answers to our questions. He is willing to work towards baptism! Now we just have to hear from the first presidency how he can meet the requirement for church attendance without actually attending church...
Another miracle--we were going up to the Copper Mountain Apartments to stop by a few people. As we got out of the car, we ran into Daniel, who dropped us a little while ago and we had a good conversation. Then we ran in to Zayne who was like, "Do you wanna meet my dad?" We got to meet him, and he thanked us for helping Zayne. It was awesome, especially since we weren't sure if he would approve of us. Then we ran in to sister Bowles and her daughter, who we wanted to meet. It turned out super great.
This week was a good one. We don't really know what will happen in the next few weeks, but we know the work of the Lord will move forward. I guess this is what you get when you pray that people will be humbled. We know we will continue to be able to find people to teach, even under these weird circumstances.
Love,
Sister Jensen
