Family and Friends,
What a crazy packed week it has been. It's been one of those weeks that feels like an eternity which I like! But it was also a super fun week.
Biggest announcement is that I now have a new companion. His name is Elder Morrison and he's from Gilbert, AZ. So we already make that connection haha.
We were able to go on a couple of exchanges this past week, and we saw a bunch of miracles. Slowly but surely we are moving forward with the Covid restrictions, and now we are able to "Street contact" (kind of). The rules are if they approach you, you can talk to them, but you can't approach them or push it. So we are getting pretty creative with getting people to approach us!
So we went to collect some info from people. And in two nights we went with 2 different companionships and found more than 5 people both nights! It was so cool!
We knocked on this one door of a guy because we were asking about his neighbor, and he was a super crazy dude. It turns out that he wasn't a member but he did graduate from BYU with a couple of different degrees. And he showed us all his degrees and his BYU student card. So basically he's a super smart and knows a lot about the church, but just doesn't want to get baptized. (And he even met Gordon B Hinckley!!!) But he said the Elders could come back, so hopefully they'll help him this time.
I was also able to be a witness at a baptism this week for one of the people the Elders in another area were teaching. But the man who was getting baptized was quite large, so they baptized him in a member's pool, which was a crazy experience! But it was a once in a life time experience for sure.
I love you all,
Elder Jorgensen
