Emu Sighting!

February 18, 2020

Unfortunately no one came to church. But that is our big push this week to have people at church. 

As a zone we were able to find 30 new people last week! That is incredible since the goal for the whole mission is about 100. And there are only 6 companionships in our zone. Faith and diligence play a huge part as we work. 

We met a super nice lady named Annie we are trying to get a solid appointment so we can bring a member to help when we teach her. 

We met a man named Phil yesterday who seems pretty keen and another lady who might be as well. 

The climax of the week was spilling chicken all over the back seat of the car while on the way to the chapel for district council.  Just kidding! Pete is on date for baptism!!!!! We shared the Wilford Woodruff conversation story and taught priesthood authority; something we had been planning all week and it went exactly as planned.  Before the lesson he kept saying he felt like he has come closer to God and that God has a plan for him. Preparation is key when teaching, otherwise there is no sense of direction. 

(Pete also showed us his massive 6x6 truck and his trailer he is building I'll get a picture next time)

It is crazy that it has been almost 6 weeks in Broken Hill. I feel like I am just starting to feel where everything is. 

I guess next week you will see the next installment of did I stay or did I go. (We find out Saturday if we are being transferred or not).

I saw my first emu today! It was pretty cool!

Sincerely, Elder Jenkins

Emu walking randomly down the road. It's a little hard to see. It's in between the pole and the tree.
