From the jungle



I had a great week in my area. My President of the mission came to visit my area for the first time. He took me and my comp and his family out to lunch and then we took him to see out chapel that is actually a house. It was a fun experience. He is actully an acting 70 for the church still, and so he has power.

He then felt like he needed to meet our new members, so he took me and my comp in a taxi to drive around our area. We visited some of our new members, and he like it. He then went back to the hotel, and rested. My Comp, Elder Jones, and I went and got people for a fireside in the church with our pres. We rented a minivan, and we had 27 people in it. On the way to the church, the tire exploded, and so I decided to run down the street to get another van. I hitched a ride by sticking my thumb out, and then got another van to go back and get them. We got 153 people to go to our conference, not bad for a brazilian branch. After the firside President talk with the leaders and the us. At 11:00 pm, we got done. Presidents wife told president she was worried that we were hungry, so we got a taxi and went to dinner. Pizza with President´s family at 11:30 at night. We got home past midnight, and we were exausted!!!! This morning (Wen) we walked to his hotel to have interviews. We got to talk with him, and it was good. We helped carry their luggage, and it was a good trip. I am pretty sure we got spoiled. I also recieved a cell phone so I am not so out of it here in my area. It was a good couple days with president in town, I got a cell, I prob gained 4 pounds, and I am ready to work a lot harder in the work of the Lord. This is the true church family!!! Lets all work hard and do our parts in helping the missionaries. I love you all. I hope you like the Blog from the jungle.
Abraço,
Elder Morphy

Maybe an easier Way

Alright, so here is possibly an easier way for everyone. I have made a general login for any of you to acccess. You will need to start by going to:

http://beta.blogger.com

Once you are at the front page, on the upper right hand corner it will say log in to blogger. Use this name:

themorphys@gmail.com

and password:

family

This means that we don't have to have our own sign in, we can just use the same one. once you enter that information you want to make sure that you are at what they call the "dashboard" it will automatically take you there, or you can get to it by pressing "dashboard" in the right upper corner. You will then see the blog titled Morphy Family. There will be a green + that says add post. Click that and it will take you right to adding a post. be sure to hit publish when you are done. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Jenny

PS make sure you sign all your posts so that we know who you are since we will all be using the same sign in.

From Mom

Hi guys! I think this will be fun. I'm not sure where to make my comments to, but I just clicked so I hope this is it. it is Wed. and Peter said:
Mom,
It does sound like you had a crazy week. I am happy that we got a new dog, I sure hope it likes our house. That is cool that you went to the sacramento temple. Is it a beautiful temple? I am sure it is. I had a good week, and we worked had. we had 2 baptisms this week, and man and his wife, which is great for the church . I am also loving thew mission, and this area. So, do you think that Emly duckworth will be baptized, I sure hope so. I want to help so many people get baptized when I get home. I cant believe the terriorist attempts. That is so crazy. Our world is so corrupted. I hope all is weel with you. hope you have a graet week;.
Pete

It's been a big week. We are waiting for tomorrow night to pick up Alexandra from Germany. She is our new student. Love you.
MOM
This is a great idea. I will for sure post stuff once I have some extra time today. I wish there was blogging while I was out serving,because its a way for petey to see us and stay caught up. I didnt get an email from him today. Anybody else?

Amanda

Bloggging is off the HOOK

I love this.. Jenny is helping me understand this blogging thing but I hope everyone can see all the wonderful pictures and updates. This is great for Pedro while in Brazil, he can see how everyone is doing by clicking on a couple of sites..

Baker

Welcome Everyone!

Howdy Family!

So I thought that we could possibly try to have a blog where all of us can post and share pictures in one place. I wanted to do this awhile ago, but as soon as I found out that Pete could access these blogs I thought why wait any longer. Rather then just leaving comments on Amanda or Baker and my's blog, you all can actually post your own thoughts and pictures to this family one. It will be fun for us to just be able to go back and forth. Hopefully we can get this all figured out.. if you have any questions please email me and I can help you.

You should all be getting an email about how to start posting here from the blogger program itself. Love you all and miss you guys! Can't wait to see the Glenns next weekend!

Jenny
