Week 85: Come in....Go away...

March 26, 2018

Hello everyone! This was another great week, loving it here in Falcon. This week we had a lot of people want to stop meeting with us which is too bad, but I'm sure they will come around someday. We were able to meet with Landon again and we did lots of service this week. Also transfers are coming up in a couple weeks and I may possibly leave Falcon so definitely trying to find some more people before transfer day!

We started off the week with some good old fashioned tracting and had some funny experiences! First one was when I knocked on this door and a kid yelled through the door "who is it?" I said "we're missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." He opens up and his mom starts walking over so I say hello and ask how she is doing, she replies "not good, what did you just say to my son when he asked who it was?" So I repeated what I had just said and she says in a very angry tone "disrespectful!"  and slams the door. Reading that you are probably just as confused as I was. So my companions and I walk away laughing and very confused. 

Next, about 5 minutes later we ring the door bell to this house that has its door open and a lady tells us to come in so we open the door and step in and this lady gets pretty scared and asks who we are so we tell her and apparently she was going to be showing this house to a possible renter and was definitely not expecting us haha. So she had us go away pretty quickly. 

Then a little later in the week we were trying to set up a lesson to teach Landon and they just tell us to come over then and help clean their house so we go and help clean their house up for a little bit and then get to teach Landon and talk with his parents and set a new goal for him to be baptized. So that was pretty cool and but then they still didn't show up for church! We will get them there one of these Sundays.

Other than that we just did lots of service. Along with cleaning the house up, we helped at a food bank (we go every Thursday) and then we do service at the library on Tuesdays. Then we went up to Black Forest to move some wood. Black Forest is awesome because it is so different from Falcon. Falcon is real flat and not too many trees around whereas Black Forest has so many trees everywhere, really pretty up there.

So it was a pretty great week and I am loving it out here and I grow in my faith in Christ everyday, good times! Hope everyone enjoys Conference, I'm excited to hear from our new Prophet!

Love,
Elder Morgan
