Me and my new companion, Elder Sanchez My crib -A neighborhood street -The guy that sells water barrels in our neighborhood.

Chapter 40: General Conference!

Hey guys! We've had a good week, the highlight of this last week was General Conference! (that's two down, two more to go, by the way).

Chapter 39: We're skipping 38

Hello devoted fans and followers, Sorry for letting you all down last week, I just forgot to write y'all an email. I also don't have a lot of time right now to write this email, so I'd just like to let you all know I'm still alive and I'm loving life.  Conference is coming up next week and that's going to be awesome! Make sure to take notes of spiritual impressions and to come prepared with questions in mind! Answers can be found, wisdom obtained, but we only get out what we are willing to put in, so prepare! I love you all, make good choices Elder Jensen
