How is everyone's summer going? Very well I hope!! :) This week was a fantastic week!I actually can't believe it is already p day!! The week flew by! :)
We were able to teach Brenden on Tuesday and that was really super cool for a few reasons :) Before we went to teach him, Sister Gibson and I were role playing mostly so I could get more practice teaching (since we don't have many opportunities to teach) and we thought of questions Brenden might ask. Guess what? One of the first quuestions he asked was one that we thought through in comp study! Coincidece? I think not! :) He asked so many questions!! They were really awesome questions too! The gospel is starting to make sense to him. :) OTher really cool thing is that someone "misplaced" his Book of Mormon, but not wanting to not following through with his commitments, he looked it up online! Guess what? He didn't go to any lame anti sites, he went right to lds.org and then he downloaded the gospel library app!! Who is this kid?? :) Ahhh it was so cool!! Aftter the lesson was over he said that he wanted to keep meeting with us!:) Sister Gibson and I were SO happy!! :) He is the first progressing investigator of my mission!! Man, miracles happen when you really try hard to do what God asks of you. :)
That wasn't the only miracle of the day...after we taught Brenden we ran into a man and his son. I was half expecting him to just tell us to go away, but we had a good 20 minute conversation! He and his wife, who came out near the end, wanted us to come back to teach them more!! MIRACLES HAPPEN!! (Please tell me you are all singing that song now, because I certainly am;)) anyways, we are teaching them tonight!! AHH so stinking exciting!! :)
We have been riding our bikes a lot this week which has been really...fun. haha we end up holding on with one hand most of the time because the other hand is used to keep our skirts from blowing up and making us immodest lol! We explored the outskirts of our area on Wednesday which was way fun!! :) It is how I imagined Ohio to look :) Lots of open space and lots of farm land :) Want to know something that was cool? Every single person that we talked to aactually let us say more than five words!! Haha it was awesome!! :) We had some really cool conversations with people, and were able to obear testimony a lot. The Spirit was awesome that day...well it is everyday, but it is a different kind of awesome when you're able to bear a longer testimony of the restoration to them. :) We got a few potentials in that area, so we will be going back soon. :)
Haha one funny thing about missionary work is the awesome excuses you get to use to talk to people...like needed to use their bathroom! Lol I have to pee about every hour, which is really inconvenient, but has provided many opportunitiess now for Sister Gibson to talk to people as I use their restroom. Haha it is so funny! I sometimes wish I had a porta potty that just followed us around. ;)
The work is really pressing forward in Dublin. :) Sister Gibson and I are so excited to see more miracles unfold. :) Thank you all for the emails, the prayers and the support ! I love you all lots and lots! Keep on beig the awesome people that you are, and you will bless so many lives!! :)
Love,
Sister Morris
