Week 93: Carol, Tristan and Facebook

May 28, 2018

Wow, this week was awesome! We have made some good progress with the people we are teaching and were able to do a lot of finding and some fun service too. We also got Facebook so anyone can look me up and add me if you want, I am just under Jonah Morgan. 

So we are still helping Carol with her garden every week and then we eat lunch with her and have a lesson. It is pretty awesome and we are really trying to help her to read the Book of Mormon and pray about it. So hopefully we will see some more progress there pretty soon.

The other family that we are working with is Tristan's, he is the 9 year old whose family has recently been reactivated. I love their family, they are so cool! They have us over for dinner a lot and to teach their kids. So it is a lot of fun being with them. 

Other than that, I am just loving the work out here and having a ton of fun. Thanks for all the love and support!

Love,

Elder Morgan

Week 92: Smartphones, Service and Devil's Head

May 22, 2018

This was a great week! I am staying another transfer with Elder Niu in Park Meadows and am excited to be here for another. This week we started some new service and were able to start putting things into our smart phones.

Our new service is at the Arc Donation Station and it is awesome. We take and sort people's donations. The lady in charge of it is super cool and likes us a lot. So we are having fun doing that. 

With the new smart phones, we now have to log in all of the data from our area books into our smart phones and it is really really slow! So we do a little bit everyday but man I hope it doesn't take too long. It will be really nice when all of it is put in because we will be able to be much more efficient in the work.

Today we went on this awesome hike called "Devil's Head. " It is a fireman's watch tower that is still active. An old guy just stays up there for a few months in a cabin over summer and looks out for the fires. So we got to talk to him and it was really cool learning a bit about his job.

Things are going just great here though, we are working hard to find new people to teach and have a lot of potentials. So hopefully some of them will pull through and feel the Spirit bringing them to the Gospel. Anyways thank you all for the support and love, I love you all!

Love,

Week 91: Being Diligent, Faithful and Obedient, the Lord Will Provide

May 7, 2018

What a good week! I am loving it out here, Park Meadows is such an awesome ward. The members are great, the work is great, everything is great! We finally got some people to teach too, so that is pretty exciting. I have a strong testimony that when we are being diligent, faithful and obedient, the Lord will provide. 

So the first cool thing that happened this week was getting a call from Carol! So last week we met her and gave her a Book of Mormon and told her we could help serve if she needed anything and she said she would give us a call. People always say they will call but it has not actually happened to me on my mission until this week haha! So we get a call and she says, "So how does this work, do I set up an appointment or do you guys just come over or what?" And of course we went over as soon as we could and helped her in her backyard and had an awesome discussion on Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon and lots of other religious things. So now we have a standing appointment with her and it is awesome, pretty excited about that! 

The other cool thing was when we were riding bikes and I saw this guy in his yard and started talking to him and he said some sisters had given him and Book of Mormon a year ago and he wanted to learn more. We set up an appointment and started teaching him and he is super cool. His name is Diego and he is 20 years old. 

We were also tracting this week and acccidently ran into a member and she had us in and showed us her pet tarantula. I got to hold him! I have a picture but will have to send it next week, so cool.

We moved member homes in the ward so our new members are the Beauchamps and even though I will miss the Jones, the Beauchamps are equally awesome. My new address is 13554 Sirus Dr., Lone Tree, CO 80124. 

The Jones Family!

Anyways, things are going well and I am working hard out here, love the Lord and am excited to be doing His work. 

Love,

Elder Morgan
