Hey everyone, I had a great Thanksgiving! We got to eat a main Thanksgiving meal with a family at 2:00. They originally scheduled it for 1:00 but i know how that goes (ha ha). We had a message to present to the members about giving thanks for the atonement of Jesus Christ so that was pretty great. We went to like 6 different families that day and everyone kept trying to feed us pie and stuff we got pretty full. And then we ate another Thanksgiving dinner at like 7 so we had a great day.
We started to listen to a bit of Christmas music already and people are starting to get their lights up around town. Christmas time is definitely the time I am going to miss being home. I already miss the warm fire and Christmas music that I'm sure your already enjoying. I don't know about my trainer if he is going to stay here for Christmas or not. He goes home the first part of February so only 1 more transfer for him after this one. Sounds like it gettin pretty cold there. Its been getting surprisingly cold here so i bought a black sweater to wear over my white shirt so between that and the suit jacket we stay pretty warm. But the lady didnt end up going to the baptism on Tuesday she was in too much pain she has some health problems and she is in a wheelchair and she didn't come to church this week becasue she was feeling sick but we have another appointment with her on Tuesday so hopefully she will be feeling better and hopefully her health improves but as far as we can tell she is making decent progress. As for the sheriff and his wife we ate BBQ at their house on Wednesday night and then shared a short lesson of the restoration and gave them some pamphlets before we left. They are looking more and more solid. We have another appointment set up with them to go over and teach a full length lesson. Its going to be kinda hard to get them at church every week because he gets every other weekend off and she works at the jail and works 4 weekends and then gets off for 4. But we will just have to wait and see what happens with them. I will try and send some more pictures next week. Christmas season is great to be able to share a message of Jesus Christ with people. And we are going to try and lift peoples spirits for the holidays since some people don't have much. I'm gonna try and send home a christmas picture of me and my companion and maybe that one can go on the card. If you get a chance send me some pictures of the family and maybe even some old pictures. Thanks for everything.
Love Elder Morgensen!
