Pablo

From Joram's 12/22 email:

Like literally all of our investigators and members have gone, we are down to about 5 investigators, so we teach the same people everyday and spend alot of time in spanish stores and Wal Mart looking for new people. On the good news we baptized yesterday, his name is Pablo and we have been working with him for a while and he was struggling with the fact that he didn't think he knew enough to be baptized, so i told him that when i started my mission i knew pretty much nothing, i mean i knew the stories and stuff, but doctrine, where to find stuff, nothing, so i told him he knows that the Church is true and that it will be an act of faith to be baptized and i promised him a powerful answer to his prayers if he asked as Moroni and James promise, with real intent, and faith, he would recieve his answer. So he prayed that night, called us in the morning and told us he wanted to be baptized. Miracles, the Lord apparently gave him his answer. So yeah that was amazing miracle that happened this week.



Thanks so much for the packages, i have been a good boy and not opened the presents like you told me. So they are just sitting on my desk waiting. Anyway thanks so much, i cant wait to do my puzzle. Thanks for the stories of Tyson, those are always exciting and make me sit here in the Library and laugh and everyone stares at me. Well thats all i've got, I hope you are having an awesome Christmas holiday and remembering the importance of this day. I hope you are having a good time celebrating the birth of our Savior. Cant wait to talk to you in a few days.
Love Elder Jensen
