Although Elder Jensen practiced law, specializing in business and estate planning, he did so to support the family farm. “I love farming and life on a farm, so I practice law in order to be able to live this way,” he confesses. [1] Elder Jensen has also served as the mission president in the New York Rochester Mission of the Church, and as the general president of the Church's Sunday School. In 1995, Jensen became a member of the Church's Public Affairs Committee.
