Well it has been an awesome week! I can't believe how fast everything goes by! We had Zone training this week which made it go by extra fast. It was also a real blessing this week to be able to exercise the priesthood and give a few blessings to some members and nonmembers.
Zone Training was really inspiring and I was really impressed with how well they taught. It stuck out to me that the motivation of missionary work should be love. When we love those around us, we are more motivated to share the awesome message of the gospel with them! I have definitely noticed that as I have been a missionary, I am a lot more bold with people when I remember how important our message is.
I had an awesome experience this week when we were contacting a referral. It was at a college and we were invited in by the referral to teach him in a classroom. While we were teaching him about the restoration of the gospel like 3 other people just came in and started listening! It was so cool and we got to answer a bunch of questions and they asked us to come back. The Lord really does bless us with people to teach when we strive to be worthy of those blessings.
We have an investigator that is so great! His name is Matthew and we met him tracting. After the first lesson he committed to be baptized and I am so excited for him! He works on Sundays right now which is a bummer but he will have a schedule change in February.
It was a bummer deal but I found out a few weeks ago that Nathan (a guy I taught in 2nd ward) had stopped going to church! I was sad about that but I saw him in the hallways at church yesterday! So that was really nice.
Other than that it has just been a really fun week spreading the word and serving those in Canon City! It has been a real blessing coming to know my Savior so much better as I am on a mission. Anyways, have fun everyone!
Love,
Elder Morgan
