Remember like 1000 years ago when that kid tried to impress us with his cussing and baby lobster?

Allow me to gush for a moment....

God is SO good. I cannot even describe to you the deep and very real truth that He KNOWS YOU. Personally. Intimately. Because He cares. He wants to know. He wants to listen and be a part of your struggles and triumphs. What other person could be so perfect and yet want to yoke themselves to you? He has such an infinite and divine love for His children. I wish I could reach through this phone and just make you feel what I feel. If I could hand this incredible thing to you and let you experience what I do every day, my goodness you might explode. I nearly do. And to know that it is only the smallest decimal of the full extent? How could you NOT believe in God?! How can you not see that the motivation and the foundation of the world, all things therein, and the power by which it was done? My lack of articulation is eradicating the message I'm trying to get across. Don't fear. Don't give in. Don't give up. Don't despair. Please understand that you have LEGIONS of Heaven's angels battling at your side. You have CONCOURSES of spiritual giants praying for you every day, including God's Prophet on the Earth today. My word, if I could just hand this burning in my soul and heart to you. 
I sat talking with a woman for two hours and went from nearly sobbing to bursting out laughing and back again. She has so much faith and so much courage to face her trials because she knows that God is on her side and with Him, all things are possible. In our very first lesson with her, we invited her to be baptized and she picked April 25th. We are excited to help prepare her for that day and guide her in her spiritual journey of healing and coming closer to the Savior. Please pray for Mary! 

And now, the thing you've all been waiting to hear about, COVID-19!
No, we are not on lockdown. 
Yes, we do still go out and tract and have lessons. 
No, we don't have any toilet paper. 
Yes, we are using hand sanitizer every day, many times a day. 
No, we don't have any cases of it in Woodstock, VA yet. 
Yes, missionaries are getting sent home, but only if they are immunocompromised and/or have lung issues. 
No, I don't know what's actually going on outside of Woodstock. 
Yes, we did buy food storage stuff. 
No, I'm not scared and no I'm not coming home. 
Yes, I do think that the Lord has been preparing us for this for a very looooonngggggg time. Decades of preparation. Therefore: no fear. "Let your faith be bigger than your fear!!" 

Et maintenant, tu as d'écouter de moi et mon mauvais français! Je suis désolé! Mais, je veux continuer à vous montrer mes progrès. 
Dieu nous a donné son fils, Jésus-Christ. Jésus-Christ est mon berger. Il est génial et mon ami vient pleuvoir ou briller! Il chercher l'agnue perdu. Doux et vrai sont ses voies. Je vais lui faire confiance et suivre ses chemins. Nous sommes tous tellement bénis d'être sous sa garde!! 

Je t'aime! Vous tous!! Have a blessed week and wash your hands! 

Love, Sister Morrison 
Onward and Upward 
Que Dieu Vous bénisse
