Happy Corned Beef and Cabbage day. Bummer that I missed
that one again. Oh well.
Well, the transfer came in today, and I have to admit that
I am slightly surprised to find out that I am being transferred. I didn’t get
any emails or calls about other leadership positions or anything, so I thought
that I was going to stay here and finish training Elder F. Kind of a
bummer, huh? I really liked Elder F., and I know that he liked me. We had
a great companionship, a lot of success and a lot of fun. It is going to be
weird being transferred again. That is mission life though.
It’s a bummer to hear about the missionary who died. That
must be devastating. I guess it was his time to go. I know that I am being
protected here because every week it seems like I am almost hit by a car, but there
is always an angel there to push me out of the way. I’ll just keep the rules,
work hard and not do anything stupid, and I’ll be all right. And my official
release date, I believe, is October 7. In 12 weeks I will receive an email with
my flight information, and then I’ll know for sure.
There is a cool experience that happened this week that I
would like to share. Sister L., our recent convert, (who really was
prepared by the Lord to accept our message), was having a lot of back pain this
week due to the nature of her job. We had explained about the priesthood and
authority, and she asked us to give her a blessing, which we did. Immediately after,
she stood up from her chair and said, “Thank you. The pain in my back has
already receded, and I can feel that the muscles have loosened.” We witnessed
thereafter that movements she was struggling to make before, she was able to do
with ease after the blessing. Cool stuff, huh?
Well, that’s about it for now. I’ll let you know where I’m
at and who my companion is next week.
Love you all,Elder Morris
