We Love President Monson

I am sure many of you heard that the beloved prophet of the world, Thomas S. Monson, passed away. Such a wonderful example of what a man should be! He will be missed, but it as always will be alright, God's work is one eternal round, it won't stop or slow down, it just keeps on plugging along! My vueltita here in Nicaragua is about to enter into the 4th Quarter, holy junk!

This Sunday before church we were able to baptize Marvin, he is a super cool guy, his family are recent converts and are super cool! They are working hard to get to the temple ASAP. Marvin changed the most out of almost any convert of the Lord I have taught on the mission. I was speaking briefly with the missionary that baptized his family and he was shocked when I told him we were gonna dunk Marvin! Truthfully, it was not the missionaries that caused the change of heart, the two most powerful people in a young man's life caused the change in him, his Father in heaven, and his mother on earth!

I love my mother so much just so you all know!

It was super cool to be a a part of his conversion, we fought (worked) and prayed and fasted a lot with him, spending many hours throwing la casaka trying to help him. And it paid off! He is a converted man to the Lord Jesus Christ with a firm testimony of the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ in this dispensation!

We live in such a cool time in history! We have the Bible  in hundreds of languages, the Book of Mormon in over 120, over 150 holy temples through out the world, thousands of missionaries which are representatives of the Lord Jesus Christ preaching repentance to this earth, and the majority are young adults 18-24 years old!! And I AM ONE OF THOSE MISSIONARIES, I love it so much, we are so blessed to be living in this time! Not to mention a college football playoff!

Such a wonderful time we live in!!

Love you all Love Elder Morrison
