Letter from Elder Morrison




yep, i'm headed back to my birthplace in the mission, Chesterfield. my new companion will be Elder Dandoy. i'm way excited to be able to see Jeanne again. i'm going to be working in the office too. i'll be in charge of cars from what i understand. also, i guess there isnt much tracting that happens there. we work in the office, and then i think mostly we visit members and try to get referrals. i'm pretty excited though. as for this area, not much has progressed since last email, although we did find a couple new investigators. hopefully they'll progress.
this weekend, the elmers took us to the casino buffet on saturday night as a farewell for me. saturday night at the buffet is crab legs, frog legs, shrimp, prime rib, bbq ribs, and more. it was really really good. yesterday they made me talk in church because i knew i was leaving. i basically gave them a small talk on being doers of the word, and not hearers only. we also had our branch potluck after church so i think it was a good day to end on.
by the way, alex didnt get transferred. he is still in jackson, mo as a zone leader.
its going to be weird going back to a 3 hour block. i've gotten used to the
2 hour church after going like that for 7 months. i guess i have to get used to it again sometime.
i'm going to be sending a package home in the next couple of days. i'm going to put my camera in it. it's basically a bunch of things people have sent me that i dont use but i'd feel bad just giving it away or throwing it away.
i've got a couple of pics to send to you now. they come from elder graysons camera, since mine is broken. one is of my new shirt, and what i did to some pajama pants i had. the other is of the booth we set up at the festival of lights a few weeks ago. hope you enjoy.
this week we had Glenn L. Pace of the Seventy come to the mission. it was really good. i love getting to see general authorities when they're not at conference. you can really see their personality.
well, i guess that's about all this week. as for a new address, maybe i'll be able to get on at jeanne's house and give you my new address.
love you!
Elder Morrison

Elder Kenz. You are looken real good. And sounds like you will be off your knees in the office. But I guess staying on the knees will help you through your mission. Good letter. Always fun to see how you are doing. Take care. We love you and are very proud of you. Love Grandma and Grandpa
