Letter from Elder Morrison

sounds like things are going a lot better up there. i am a little sad that coltin was goin for can. i think that he should have been rootin for the us. but i miss the olympics so much! i keep hearin about all that is goin on and i am like come on! it was pretty sad aboot that guy that died on the luge. i keep tellin people i wish i could watch curling and they all just make fun of me. haha oh well.

well do i have some news for you.

transfer calls came in saturday night. we all knew burton was leaving, but there is a pretty big twist. the elders in the perris ward got doubled out. me and my new companion, elder kidman, are now coving the lake perris ward, as well as the perris ward. that covers all of perris, mead valley, nuevo, and romoland. its safe to say that our area has bout 60,000 people in it. and i get a car. burton is going to murrieta and is on bike,,,,again haha.

im pretty worried, about takin on 2 areas, but we will do fine. this is what the Lord wants, im game.

i got an anouncement from zack. that was so cool to hear. let him know that i say congrats!

so i felt my first earthquake!!!i was going to tell you last week but i forgot,. it was so sweet. just a small one but hey, i felt it. one other cool thing i have forgot to mention. there is an airforce base here and fighter planes fly around all the time. it is so cool seein them in formation.

not much has gone on here. we keep tractin, and we have 4 investigators. 2 of which are not progressing, but are probably the coolest people i know here. one is in her late 60;s and her mom (97) lives wither her and has alsheimers or however you spell it. we walked in and she said who are you boys?

i said"mormon missionaries"

she-" oh i was mormon a long time ago!"

5 min later*

she said who are you boys?

i said"mormon missionaries"

she-" oh i was mormon a long time ago!"

so flippin funny!

one other investigator is recovering from cancer. he is stuck on the pain pills, and his parents dontknow so he has been having a rough time. i think that he talked to them a couple days ago so i hope that went well, everytime we go to see him, he is sleeping. we will keep tryin.

miracle experience- a while ago elder burton set up a return appt with a J-Dub and i knew it was just going to be a bash. so we went there on that day and he wasnt there, so we tracted in that area. we went to a door, opposite side of where we were tracting, to one house, at that house ashley answered. she was very very excited and wants to learn a lot more. i hope that feeling continues onto tomorrow when we have our appt.

well that is about it. a less active in our ward works at In-n-out and gave burton and i shirts. suh-weet! haha they love us. it always seems like the less actives love the missionaries way more. haha.

i know you dont hear much from kenz but how is that whole situation goin? sounds like he is doin fine. i havent heard from cole or marshall or chandler in a long while. but thats ok, they got lots of things goin on. im so glad to hear everyone's papers are in. i am very glad to hear josh is gettin his papers goin.

well i love you all family. take care, i will be calling in only 3 more months. *crazy*

much love

Elder Morrison
