Hey It´s Actually Me!!!!

Hey everyone this is elder jensen himself. what is up? So this week wasn´t too bad we did a lot of walking which is hat a missionary does i guess haha. but everything is going great here. i love it here in leiria. it´s a pretty town about the size of STG. So i really like that haha. but everyone and their dog in portugal sm,okes so that part i hate. So i have one big piece of news.
on july first the portugal porto mission will be no more.... it will be combined with the portugal lisbon mission and there will be one portuguese mission. this is kinda sad but it´s good because that means the portuguese people are more able to govern themselves without having a mission president over them to tell them what to do. but the libon mission last year baptized 600 or so people the most out of any european mission and their goal this year is 900 and our goal is 300 so if when we combine~and then we boath reach our goal the portugal mission will have crushed any other european mission at baptisms. but unfortunately president and sister walton will be released and go back to the states. so i won´t be serving in the portugal porto mission anymoer it will be the portugal lisbon mission after july 1.
but the language is coming great i really love it and everyday it gets easier to understand and the people are very patient with me when i can´t understand which is nice of them haha.
so we had this one investigator named socrates and he was doing everything he was supposed to like reading and coming to church and praying but he wouldn´t believe that jodpeph smith was ãn actual prophet. so we went into our last meeting and we read him a scripture that basically said we had taught him everything which we had and said that we were going to have to drop him and he understood but then i asked what his actuall doubt was and he said he liked the book of mormon and he wanted to believe but he didn´t know why but he just couldn´t believe in joseph smith. so i asked right then if he would pray about his doubt and we did and me and tolman felt the spirit so much but we don´t know if he did or not then i bore my testimony about our church and he said that was nice but he still couldn´t believe so we dropped him. it kinda sucked because i felt that we were so close to getting him to be baptized but oh well.
oh and that girl that me and elder miles were with requires a story haha so we were up in coimbra for training and so i went on splits that night with elder miles and AP and we met up with some other elders that we found walking around then we went and had dinner with president and sister walton and they were sitting behind us in this restraunt and they were apeaking a little english so we asked them and it turns out she´s a famous latvian dancer haha so we got a picture with her haha and don´t worry president walton took the photo haha
well thansk all you guys i love you very much and i will try to do this every week and send an email too.
love
elder spencer jensen
