Hey Everyone:)
Yep dad u are right it was a short week and they seem to be getting shorter.  Long days but short weeks for sure.  Thats awesome that the girls won state again; I bet that was really fun!  John Marshall is an awesome coach.  I'm sure Courtney's team will be able to take state when she gets old enough.  Thats too bad about the boys losing though.  I bet Courtney is really excited to start up all-stars. I hope their team does good!  That will be really cool to have Ava get blessed on Sunday. That will be fun. I'm sure a lot of family will come down for that.  So how long do u serve on the high council for?  I bet it's a lot of work and a lot of speaking.  I'm glad Milo's boy had a good mission. I bet it's sweet to hear all the missionaries experiences.  But yeah we stumble across a lot of inactive people just out tracting. They seem interested at first but then decide coming back to church would be too much work and we lose contact with them.  But oh well we are working with a few different people right now.  Hopefully some of them will progress.  I bet ward conference was a long long Sunday with the stake callings and all the meetings.  I'm sure u both do an awesome job.  That's cool tho that Austin is going out; it will be really good for him.  We had a fun week; we were just knocking on doors and this one guy came out and we introduced ourselves and then he introduced himself as Father Ramatowski ha ha.  So we went in and talked for a few minutes but we had to be leaving for an appointment.  But we set up a return appointment to go over so we texted him so see if he was still good for us to come over and he as like yeah im looking forward to hearing your insights.  So me and my comp were pretty nervous to go over cuz we could just tell that this guy was really smart so we were like the second he tries to bash with us lets just leave cuz he will want to talk bible scriptures and neither of us know that bible really good ha ha.  But it turned out good we got to teach him the restoration and stuff.  I was nervous tho going over the first vision and telling him that Christ told Joseph Smith that all the churches were wrong; but i said it anyway ha ha.  So we just talked after a lot about it; he has already read the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants but he said he did at as an academic project so we challenged him to read and study prayerfully and he would receive an answer.  So it all ended well and we will be going by sometime this week or next hopefully to talk more.  He is like 35 and not married cuz I guess priests take a law of celibacy or something like that.  My comp even invited him to be baptized when he knows its true cuz we have to do the baptismal invite in any first lesson.  It was kind of awkward but he agreed he would be if he knew it was all true ha ha.  So that was my little experience this week.  The ward is really cool; the med students always have us over for dinner.  The families house we ate at last night cooked really good and he is done with dental school this semester and then moving to start doing dentistry.  So it's really cool to be over at all their houses and they all have small kids ha ha.  Sounds like the monkey's are just up to the same old thing ha ha.  Sorry Candace that the parade of homes wasn't that good. When I went we went to some huge nice houses.  Sometimes it just depends on the year.  Well, keep up the hard work. I love ya lots!:)  Tell everyone hi for me down in St George!
Love,
Elder Morgensen
