This week went by so quick! This reminds me of when I was being trained because the weeks just seem so fast. It was a great week though and we saw a lot of miracles and had lots of fun.
The week started out with interviews with President Stevenson and that went really well. not too much to say about that but it was good.
We got to do some fun service, harvesting potatoes. They showed us the place where they keep all the potatoes and they have like 7 million of them!

We also found this awesome family to teach! The wife is an inactive member and the husband is not a member but they have a year old daughter and are super awesome. We were going out visiting people with our ward mission leader and we went and saw them. I am excited to start teaching them.
We also found a family who is really funny and awesome. We saw them unpacking their car one day and went and helped them and it turned out that he was a member and his wife and kids are not. So we set up a time we could come back and start teaching them. It was cool because we came back at the perfect time for them. We came and he said that he had just lost his job and a bunch of other things were going wrong in their lives and I felt like Ammon did in the Book of Mormon when the flock of sheep were scattered. The other servants were panicking, thinking that the king would kill them and Ammon saw that and was happy because he saw a chance to show them the power of God in their lives! I was thinking that same thing when they were talking about their problems because the teachings of Jesus can help them so much right now. Anyways it will be great to continue teaching them.
The definite highlight of the week was setting a baptismal date for Doyle! When Elder Nelson and I met him he was in red underwear and was hammered drunk and high and telling us how much he hated his life. Now whenever we see him he is happy to see us and tells us he loves us and tells us thank you for helping him to change his life. So cool to see how Jesus Christ changes people. So he said he would be baptized on October 30th and we are happy for him.
Other than that is has been a fun week and I have loved being out here preaching the gospel.
Love,
Elder Morgan
