Car Issues

February 11, 2020

It is absolutely insane how quickly this week has gone.

We were able to meet with two of our investigators, the other two were busy or we missed them. 

Their names are Bruce and John. They are older men who have a religion but are very humble and willing to listen. Bruce is actually just visiting from the Philippines and so we will probably be sending his information to missionaries in the Philippines when he leaves in a week or so.

This week we were really busy with driving to Mildura for Elder Cozzens doctors appointment and with car trouble. We had a flat tire on Wednesday not long after we called. Fortunately, the car has a full size spare and we had it changed in about 10 minutes, we just had to head over to a tire repair shop before we left Thursday. 

Driving 6 hrs in one day on Australian outback roads was not very fun. I did get to go with the zone leaders for a bit though while Elder Cozzens was at the doctor with the senior couple. Friday came along and we were exhausted from driving so much in one day, so planning for the week was a bit difficult. Saturday was much better and we were able to start reteaching a man who was taught prior. It has been hard to keep track of what actually happens the days go by so quick. Our car battery died and we had to use the car a lot on Sunday so we prayed and it ran for the rest of the day which is amazing! 

We are hopefully going to see Cally and Devlin to help them make it to church and see if there is anything we can do to help them come to church. We will also be meeting with Pete on Friday and teaching him about priesthood authority and the sacrament to try and get him to church.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is true, whether in the Australian Outback or the middle of New York City. It is universal and there is nothing that can shake that fact. Joseph Smith is a Prophet and he restored the true church upon the earth.

Sincerely, Elder Jenkins
