Week 2 has been interesting! We have had some exciting things going on in our little district. We got a new Elder who has some difficulties and because of such we have had a hard time within the district. He leaves at random times because he doesn't want to be in class anymore so he just leaves which means his companion has to follow him. Its been taking a toll on his companion so the Elders have been taking turns leaving and missing out on the lesson. Because of all of this happening and the frustration that comes with it, the Spirit has not been as strong as what would have been hoped! Please keep this Elder in your prayers that he will be able to fulfill his calling as a missionary. He ran away like off campus last night and he was back this morning so I am not sure what all happened, but he really needs prayers right now.
In other exciting news we had the 1st Counselor in the General YW Presidency Sister Cook as our teacher/speaker in Relief Society on Sunday...She did so well and we watched a Mormon messages video about a football team at practice and its storming and all of a sudden lightning strikes and its truly amazing what happens next! You HAVE to go look it up and watch it I am pretty sure that the video is called Sanctify Yourselves and Jeffery R Holland is the one speaking. Anyway, at the end of the video, we had some excitement! A sister on the other side of the room from where I was passed out or something and some priesthood leaders rushed over and gave her a blessing and the EMTs came in and they took her to the hospital. They announced over the pulpit for another sister and as she stood up they said it was her real sister that was having the problem so she ran over there crying and went to the hospital with her sister. They did a whole bunch of tests and they think that she passed out because of a new medication that she was taking, she was back at the MTC the same night and all is well!
Other than those two exciting events nothing too interesting has been happening...The Spirit is so strong here most of the time and I have turned into a little bit of a crier! I cry when I teach our investigators and I share spiritual experiences. All the talks and all the lessons are truly amazing! Sis Hollingshead and I are still going strong! I don't have much time to type, only 30 minutes every p-day and these key boards are ridiculously hard to type on so I am sorry that my emails are so short! I try to write real letters and if I get really letter or letters from dearelder.com then I get them more than once a week which means more time to respond which means more things said! The computer messed up this time also so I don't even know if I got to read all the emails that were sent to me so I am sorry if I do not respond! Ahh... I am out of time! Just know that I love you and I miss you and I want to hear from you! Its so nice to hear from home, no matter what is going on.
Love you Always! Sister Morgan Brox
