The
work in Zanesville is going wonderfully:) the first day of spring has been
snowy, but we are optimistic for the warm weather...someday 😉
It's
been a pretty average week, so sorry if this email is a little boring. We spend
lots of time finding and teaching which is good. The best thing that happened
was service at Loma's house last night. We gave her a copy of The Living Christ
on Monday and when we got there she was so excited because she had found a
beautiful old picture frame that her mom had given her. She said, "my mom
would be so proud that I found such a good use for this frame." She is
doing so well and just loves the Gospel with all her heart. Sister Hansen and I
feel so blessed to know Loma and see how much happiness the gospel and
atonement of Jesus Christ have brought into her life.
(Brad: Miki didn't think this story would be appropriate but I decided to include it anyway (slightly edited)
Something pretty crazy did happen though! We
got invited by some people we met on the street to a Bible study. We we're
pumped thinking it would be a Bible study like the scripture study groups at
our church. NOPE. We arrived to the address they sent us and it was an Anchor
church! 😶 we laughed and said, "oh boy...this
will be interesting..." which it was. If you don't know, members of the
anchor church very much believe in yelling, speaking in tongues, and all being
scary and talking at the same time. And they will randomly lift up their arms.
The preacher guy spent almost the entire Bible study yelling at all of us,
clapping his hands as loud as he possibly could (I was honestly surprised that
his hands didn't break ;)) oh man. It was such an experience. A couple
different times they all started speaking in tongues while praying and I just
closed my eyes and prayed that it would stop. They taught some true doctrine, but are missing sooo many plain and simple
truths that make Jesus Christ's gospel happy and peaceful! Anyways, we left
that Bible study with strengthened testimonies of the restored gospel of Jesus
Christ. I know without a doubt that this is Jesus Christ's church that he came to
establish for us. :)

lso, ignore the anti comments that have started appearing on my Facebook page. All these people from around the world keep posting on it or sending me friend requests...absolutely no idea how they're finding it.
It
was a great week and I am so grateful for the opportunity to be here. Take time
today to help someone else smile 😊
Have
a great week, everyone!
Love,
Sister
Morris
