I can´t remember what I have all written here, but Hermana Terry, from my district in the CCM [MTC] is here in my SAME AREA and I love her to death. God knew that I could not handle having no way to express my true feelings, I already struggle with that in English. I love her to death and she is always there and has my back. Constantly concentrating on a language is really hard, it is nice to have someone that I can talk to in English if I have to.
We have been focusing on strengthening the barrio [ward]. There are a lot of menos activos aqui [less active members] and we really need the support of the ward. SOOOO I had to speak in the third hour of church. Since it was the 5th Sunday, they were all together. Our companions wanted Hermana Terry and I to speak because we know just enough words to be super direct, and no on can really get mad at us because we are so new. It went pretty well, I was shaking pretty bad, but I remembered Spanish. I hope I didn´t come across wrong, I was pretty direct.
We also got to watch women's conference! We got super lucky, we were going to have to watch it in Spanish, but the lady next to us had an iPad and so Hermana Terry and I went in the other room and watched it. It was weird to see the conference center and not be close to home. I had a strange feeling of how far away I am. I also could really feel how true the church is, EVERYWHERE. I just sneezed and everyone in this place said salud [Bless You]. I pretty much love Mexico. Don´t worry I am doing great! I think I come across my emails more positive than I really am, but that is better than the opposite! But really, It´s coming and I am loving it.
Well, I love you all so much, have a great week, hasta luego!
Hermana Jensen
