Well this week was pretty great! We were in Springs for 3 days for MLC and for the Temple Trip I was able to go on!
We started off the week going up to MLC in Springs and that went really well. President Stevenson is definitely inspired and it is awesome being with him. We stayed with the Assistants to the President the whole time we were there and that was so fun. It was crazy because my trainer, Elder Rogers went home this week and stayed with us before he was taken to the airport! It was good to be able to see him and just weird because he was going on his temple trip when he was training me last year and now I was in his position.
The Temple was so awesome! We go to the temple at our halfway mark and I finally got to go! It was so cool seeing all the people that I came out with. I know the temple is the house of the Lord and the Spirit is so strong in there. The Lord's greatest blessing for us are in His holy Temples. We had dinner and a devotional afterwards and set some goals for the rest of our missions. It was just a great experience and made me excited for the second half of my mission.

Other than that, the work in our area is still going pretty slow. A few weeks ago we had so any awesome people we were teaching but in these past couple weeks they have all wanted to stop meeting with us. So we have one person that we are able to meet with regularly now. So we are working on finding more people to teach. The Lord is preparing people for the gospel, we jsut have to find them!
It was pretty cool this week because I had my first allergic reaction! We were helping some people move into the ward and I was stung by 2 wasps or yellowjackets on my leg in the span of about 5 minutes! It started swelling up a little bit at first and I didn't think too much of it but later in the day my ankle and lower leg got huge! By the end of the night it was pretty uncomfortable to walk on but I got some steroids and a priesthood blessing. In the morning it was still swollen and itchy but didn't hurt to walk on! So it turned out well.

The one person we are teaching is Teresa. She is dating this less active member and she is awesome! This week we read Alma 32 with her and it was so cool to see her feel the spirit. So we will keep teaching her and hopefully she will get to church this next week!
Anyways it has been a great week and hopefully this next week we will find some more people. This is the truth, Joseph Smith was a prophet, the Book of Mormon is the word of God and Jesus is the Christ!
Love,
Elder Morgan
