Companion: Elder Smith
This week has been the longest and probably the most rewarding week i have ever had. It has been really tough. but i have had some amazing spiritual experiences. Me and Elder smith have been getting along pretty well. We work well together and can use each others strengths for our weaknesses. My computer seems to be having some problems so i will try to email you some pictures later. I have been sleeping ok our room is insanely hot all the time so its kinda hard to stay asleep but there are 6 beds per room and we have 6 elders so naturally 4 of us are in my room and another companion set is in one by themselves. but we basically have the whole floor for our Branch but we are the only district in our branch. I have been writing in my journal and i wish i could tell you all the funny amazing stories that are in it but i cant. For exercise we have a big gym for volleyball basketball or four square. and then above that is a track and weight lifting stuff. i ran a good 6:20 Mile our first gym time and then a 3:30 half mile the next day so i think the altitude probably has something to do with that.
We got to watch a talk given by elder Bednar here at the MTC its called the Characteristics of Christ. And it was probably the best talk/sermon i have ever heard it was amazing i think you can get the text copy. I would highly recommend that.
Another thing i learned is that today (i think) all of the MTC Presidents are coming here to get special training from 6 of the 12 apostles! I dont think we get to see or hear from any of them but Just knowing that 6 of the apostles are within like a half mile of me at most is pretty cool. Thank you for everything you have given me all of you have made me a better person and i feel greatly blest to be there
love- Elder Jensen
