Dear Family,
Hopefully for the only time ever, I was glad to not have any investigators at church on Sunday. Jordan is baptized and confirmed now- so he doesn't count any more. Sacrament meeting and Sunday school were so spiritual, but during the third hour the bishop presented the ward mission plan and everything went down hill. People were practically shouting about how they did not want to follow the plan because they were not a part of making it. One man said, there is a great and spacious building on the other side of town that is the largest church in San Antonio. I was expecting him to say we should avoid being like that church, but he said the opposite! He said, the reason they have such high activity is because they put on a show so we should do the same> OH MY GOSH!!! I can't believe he said that. I wanted to cry the whole way through the meeting. Moral of the story: support your bishop and throw your weight behind the ward mission plan. Never behave in a way that will make the missionaries glad they did not have an investigator at church.
Other than that small incident yesterday the week has been pretty good. Jordan is Baptized and Confirmed!!! All is well. I am not getting transferred.
I went on splits to Encino Park and it was fantastic. I hope Sister Jespersen and I get to be companions someday. I also got to see the Footes* and it was almost like I got to get a hug from my mom. It was so good!!! I hope I get transferred there some time.
Anna! I predict with my super magical skills as THE PREDICTOR that you will go to...SWEEDEN! Just kidding. Dad already told me. I'm so excited for you!!! I'm also way excited to get all your letters.
We're going to the marcado today and have to meet up with the elders soon so I have to go but I love you all.
Love,
Morgan

*The Footes are old college friends of my parents.
Morgan sent an email later saying the title of this post should be "A week of mustached men I don't have time to tell you about."
ReplyDeleteHum, I wonder what the story is there. Someone should write and ask her.
