WOWZA!!
This week was a roller coaster. Don't worry, a really good roller coaster
:)
First
of all, it's already transfers and we got good news! Sister Hansen and I are
staying together! 😊 going on transfer #5 in
Zanesville! Woot woot! I never want to get transferred...maybe I'll be here for
over half my mission like Mitch in colima :)
Sister
Hansen's first sunday here she was called up randomly during sacrament to bear
her testimony. I laughed because id been out 8 1/2 months and never had to get
up in front of a congregation and she gpt called on her first sunday. Well...we
had stake conference this weekend and shortly before the meeting started the
presiding general authority, Elder Taylor (watch for him in this next general
conference :)) came right up to me, introduced himself, asked me where I was
from and my name and all that good stuff, and then he asked if he could call on
me to come up during his talk!!! 🤤 I clearly couldn't say no to
a general authority ;) as soon as he called me and three others up my legs
started shaking horribly. Haha it was great. Thankfully what he asked us to do
was read a quote and bear our testimonies of the power of the Book of Mormon.
:) it was scary but an opportunity that I'm very grateful for. The coolest
thing about it was Saturday night I had the thought come to my mind,
"Sister Morris, you are going to get called on to bear your testimony
tomorrow so don't freak out." I didn't like that thought so I just pushed
it out of my mind. It did help though...i was less surprised when Elder Taylor
came up to me. So grateful that Heavenly Father knows us so perfectly and knows
how to help us not freak out as badly in terrifying situations. 😂
Elder
Taylor also invited everyone to send a name of someone they wished was sitting
next to them to the elders that were there on Saturday. We got 9 referrals from
that!! And we are going to start teaching a family because of it!! 😁 this family is so prepared. They received a copy of
The Family A Proclamation to the World from a member and they have it hanging
up on their fridge. Needless to say we had a little dance party in the car when
we got this referral. 😊🎉
Great
things are happening in the great OCM. I love being a missionary and I love
being a member of Jesus Christ's church. 😄 thanks for the prayers and
love! I love you all lots and lots!
Love,
Sister
Morris
