Dear family,
Today is our P-day and we got to attend the temple. I loved it. it made me think of when weall went together and i am so excited to do that again when i come home. Thank you, dad for the letter. it really helped me out. sorry to hear the bad news, what are you doing now? the first three days here were so hard on me. i missed my family and friends. but things are going a lot better now. me and my comp really get along. he is the district leader so i get to go to all the meetings with him. yippee. i ran into kyle the first day here and that really made me feel good. i hadnt seen kale until two days later and i really wanted to see him. man kale's comp is a retard. i feel bad for him. i got to take a picture with kale at the temple on our temple walk sunday afternoon. i will be sending it home as soon a s i can get it printed off.
while im thinking about it, the things i need/would like:
1)Sweats
2)sweatshirt
3) All of the grandparents addressess
4)Josh's address
everything i think i have.
as far as letters go, i get mail twice a day. i am just not supposed to write back until P-day. so please send your letters or dear elder me.
DearElder is pretty sweet and i have gotten a letter from both dad and Chayla. I never reallized how much a letter helps everything. just to get something in the mail is amazing. a missionary looks forward to nothing more than getting a letter in the mail. So please write me!!!
my mtc address is
ELDER TYLER JOHN MORRISON

Provo, Utah 84604-1793
our estimated departure date is december 1st so i guess thanksgiving will be in the mtc. i hear one of the general authorities will be coming for a devotional for the holidays.
Elder McConkie in our district is the grandson to the one and only Bruce R.
McConkie and he is so funny. i really get along with him.
ok funny story. we had heard\read in the news papers that Elizabeth Smart was coming into the mtc either the same day we did or the week before. We asked our teacher Brother Wilding to use his powers to look up the name in the computer, but never found any one under the name Smart. Elder McConkie swears he saw her with the name tag of Sister Christiansen. however none of us could confirm it was her. so we turned to our teacher once again and asked him to bring us a picture of the true E. Smart. he doesnt have a printer so he took some pics of her on the computer with his phone and showed it to us. we are pretty sure she is the guy. ;) about 80% sure.

We have been learning so much. not so much the doctrine yet, but how to care and love the investigator, how to recognize the spirit, and how to invite the spirit. We have been learning to extend commitments.
yesterday we went to the R.C. (referal center) and learned to make calls. we called out to people that had requested things from lds.org. i was dreading it and finally i said to my self, self, you will call these people. so i called for a total of about an hour and 45 minutes, only one person answered the phone. and then i choked. so over all i would concider it a failure.
haha i hope that as i practice and contiue with faith i will be able to connect with more people and help them feel the spirit.
The food.
oh the food. well it is usually ok, sometimes really good and sometimes i end up just getting a bowl of cereal to make sure there is something in my stomach. sunday mornings we only get cereal, and that sucks. but it is alright. the food hasnt really been making me feel all that well.
makes me think of when "Nephi Crapped into the city"
anyways i miss all of you so much. every chance i get i am thinking and praying for all of you. that is really the only thing i miss, is being able to speak with all of you. Friends, Family.
thank you family and chandler for the notes, i have found everyones except haileys, idk where to look for that one. thanks for the nagg and the shirt papa. haha really made me happy when i found it "yesterday" haha. My family picture broke:( but the picture is still good.
I am so sorry i have no time. the 5 minute warning just popped up. I love you all. i Cant wait to call when i am at the airport.
With all my love, until next week,
Elder Morrison
P.S.
