Hello everyone!!!
It has been a solid past couple weeks, full of teaching, snow, and transfers!
It has been real cold out here in Utah the past couple months. It hasn't snowed for awhile but it just snowed a lot on Saturday, so that's been fun. I actually really enjoy the snow, it will be a bit different going to Africa in about a week and a half. I will go from one extreme to the other, but I'm excited!
We are continuing to teach the two kids that we baptized. Aiden is solid and has been going through a lot with his family. But his testimony is super strong, he has had to do some things that no nine year old should have to go through. We are super proud of him though. Nikko the other kid we baptized actually has the opportunity to get sealed to his family in the bountiful temple! They called our mission president and got permission for us to go with them! So on Wednesday we will go with them to the bountiful temple and watch them get sealed as a family, we are super excited for them.
Today were transfers!!! I only have about a week and a half and so I will be in a trio with Elder Morrissey and Elder Vea until I head out. We are combining the stake again so we will cover 7 wards and a branch. We are super excited to be in a trio and combining our areas. It's gonna be a good last week and a half. We will end off strong before I head out.
I actually got my flight plans today for the 4th and it is starting to hit me that I am actually leaving for Ghana in a bit. I am super excited though, I have loved the past 6 months here in good old Roy utah and I am excited for the next year and a half in Ghana. Next pday will be my last one before I head out!! That's crazy, but I hope all yall are doing great. I hope you guys are staying safe and having fun. Thanks again for the love and support, love you all
Love Elder Morgan

ReplyDeleteWe are excited for you to have this new experience. My great great Grandfather ser ed in South Africa in the 1800's he rode a horse some times 30 miles to contact with the Saints there he was without purse or script. He kept an amazing journal and I have a copy and cherish the opportunity to know him and his testimony. One comment that I am grateful for "When my mission was the hardest was when I relied on the Lord the most. He also served I. India before he went Africa. He was a wonderful example of his commitment to Jesus Christ, we know you will a wonderful missionary in Africa. You are in our prayers.
