hey family. i dont know why i didnt get your email last week. kinda weird. well, we've got some really good news this week.
DANIELLE IS GETTING BAPTIZED!!! she has set a date for the 21st of Feb, just less than 2 weeks away. we're really excited for her. she has so many struggles, but she is so much more accepted and comfortable in the church than she is anywhere else, i think. she has a lot of problems with her mom, and they dont have a very good relationship. since her mom is the one who forced her to take the lessons (being a recent convert of about a year) danielle has been very uninterested in the gospel and the church. however, recently, we started teaching at another member's house, and ever since then, for the last month or so, she has progressed amazingly. last thursday, elder goudie went to the bathroom after the lesson, and brother rose said to her 'you know, i think elder goudie would love to see you get baptized before he leaves in 3 weeks'. she said 'i was thinking about that anyways'. so after elder goudie came out of the bathroom, she told him and everyone was really excited. sister rose was crying from excitement and happiness. it was a very good night.
this last week, we've picked up a couple new investigators who i think could be really solid. i'm excited about them. one of them just had a death in the family (while we were teaching the 1st lesson, just before the 1st vision) but has invited us to come back, which is a solid gesture by itself.
i got the package. thanks a ton. i think i'm actually losing weight. my belt seems to be getting a little looser. i'm on the tightest setting now. my other pants are starting to fit better (not the ones i came out with or that you sent me). by the way, wal-mart doesnt have my size. we are also starting to ride bikes. the doctor told me to eat right and exercise more, and he said a bike is the best thing next to swimming that i can do for my knees. they arent hurting anymore, so i should be alright. i only have 3 months left, anyways. my size is currently like a 48/32. a 34 length is actually too long because of where it sits on my waist. if you were to get me pants, i'd ask for blue ones.
the other day, we went to help a family clean up their basement. it's the next family we'll be living with. they're the taylor family. they have us over every week for dinner, so i know them pretty good so far. we'll be living in their unfinished basement, which is actually gonna be a pretty sweet setup. i'm going to send some pictures via gmail, so i can send more than one. i'll see what i can dig up.
that's about all this week. hope you have a good week, and i'll talk to you later. love you, Elder Morrison
