This week we went to Albania to drop off our senior couple who was going home. I ended up having breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a different country on both Wednesday and Thursday. It was wild. But I survived driving in both Tirana and Pristina where there are basically no traffic laws and crossing 2 different borders (only getting stopped once for Macedonian officials to inspect our boxes of Serbian and English Book of Mormon's loll). It was crazy. 
anywho here's some pics from Ohrid. It rained all weekend which was wild. Reminded me of fall in Oregon:/

Sister Chamberlain had an exchange which was so fun to finally be comps for a little bit:) In two weeks we'll be the only sisters in Macedonia which will definitely be crazy. But, I am continually reminded that God doesn't need us to be perfect, he just needs us to try. I am in literally every aspect not prepared for the change that will happen when Sister Jo and Lea go home. I don't know the members well enough, or the culture, or the area, and I definitely do not know the language well enough, but I do know my Savior and I know he will help increase my ability to do his work. 
" ...I am able to do mine own work...Therefore, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, yea, a marvelous work and a wonder"
I love you all, I love Macedonia, and I love my Savior.
Со љубов,
Сестра Џенсен

  zdravo !!! This has been yet another wild week. I've been up in Skopje, the capital, for most of the week actually with zone conference and different meetings up here and for a zone pday. Anywho this email is going to be more of a picture book so enjoy because I have literally 1000000 pictures and wanted to share them with the class: last pday we went to Sveti Jovan which is a mega famous church in Macedonia. It's right in Ohrid and is najubavo!!!! here's a cute little illegal pic of the inside. Way smaller than I thought it would be tbh.  now onto the delicious food from this week..... huge announcement... I ate tomatoes and I didn't die from my utter disdain. All the produce is insanely delicious here and they were actually fine. here's shopska salad (onions, cucumbers, tomatoes, and this cheese that is kinda like feta but not and more salty LITERALLY MY FAV THING). it's sooooo good and I've already had it twice this week because it's my favorite. bu...

  Zdravo !! This week we went to Albania for zone conference ! We had kinda a crazy time getting there and back because we realized right as we were leaving that my international driving had expired with my residency card that I just had renewed. Sooo that was an adventure but we made it eventually.  Featuring Sis Ch and I as the only sister's in our zone:((( Then this beautiful sunset on the way back featuring Ohrid Lake !! Then the car troubles continued this week... We got to our car and the battery was completely dead... so enjoy this montage of us getting it figured out  and finally us back on the town with our car working again ! here are some pics from a couple lessons with our members this week:) now enjoy some pics of Sis Ch and I pov: you're trying to figure out if this man is doing the splits or holding on to a hand railing where there are germs. We had some amazing lessons this week that reminded my of God's hand in this work. With all the craziness that happe...
