Family and Friends,
How are we doing? Things are starting to get a little more relaxed here in this mission! Big time news, we can now go get haricuts on preparation days!!!! They are starting to let us go to more and more places, little by little, but progress is progress!
I have also learned a lot of new tricks while I have been in this quarantine state which has been pretty nice! Here are some of my favorite things:
1. I may have to write a crockpot recipie book, because I am getting pretty good at using one
2. I may look into the english profession because there are a lot of latinos that want to learn English, so my teaching skills are getting pretty good!
3. My stalking skills have gotten pretty high trying to find specific people on Facebook! Won't come in handy in the future though
4.Starting random conversations of Facebook (AKA Sliding into DM's) has actually started to become quite a fun thing to do!! Watch out haha
But we also saw a huge miracle this week! So one of the things my mission president has advised us to do is make connnections and build relationships with people before just immediately jumping into sharing the gospel! So I joined a local facebook page here in Frederick and posted this message just asking what the coolest places are to see here in Frederick while everything is still on lockdown!
I then had this one lady respond to me telling me about this 24-7 Prayer room in donwtown Frederick. She then put me in contact with the person who runs it! Who just happens to be a local minister for a United Methodist Church!
So we were able to set up a zoom call with her this past week and we talked with her about this project and what we could do to help! She was super nice and wanted us to participate because she wanted as many churches to join in on this project! So we are basicall friends with a minister now which is pretty cool!
The only thing is we don't know exactly what we can do to help out since we are still in quarantine so we are just kind of waiting until we are able to be released!
And also, de received a new companion with us this week! His name is Elder Bethers and he's from Bountiful, and was serving it Guatemala! We have about the same amount of time in the mission which is pretty fun too!
Love you ALL,
Elder Jorgensen
