As Easy As Riding A Bike

May 27, 2013

"Dear Friends and Family,

Well this week has been a crazy one. This week my companion, Elder Jones has been sick so due that we didn't work as much as I hoped but we did finally make it out to meet some people.

Gracie Wridge is a golden investigator, she is going to get baptized in the next few weeks or in July and we have some other people who are really promising we are trying to meet this week.

The ward is super nice and accommodating. About 250+ active.

Elder Jones, my companion, does not know how to ride a bike! So we will be working on that. He will be a pro by the time he leaves this area!

Things are going good except health issues so pray for us there.

Thanks!

Love you!

-Elder Organ"

Elder Aaron John Organ was born in January 1994 at home to his two loving parents Terry and Renae Organ. He was the 6th child and 4th son, also the youngest by 6 years. He has been a member of the LDS (Mormon) Church his entire life and always had the dream and goal of serving a full-time 24 month mission.

After graduating high school in 2012 he left Gilbert, AZ to attend Brigham Young University in Provo, UT. While there he submitted his mission papers. On October 31st he received and opened his mission call surrounded by friends and his older sister Rachelle in Provo, Utah. Between three laptops and six cell phones, his best friends who were at BYU-Idaho, his parents who were in Gilbert, Arizona, his oldest sister and her family, one of his older brothers and his family, and a handful of other friends were all able to watch and listen as he opened his call and read it aloud. In the dorm building common room there were more than 60 friends lending their love and support.

He was called to serve a 24 month mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Montana, Billings Mission, English speaking. He was very surprised that it was a stateside, English speaking assignment but immediately stated his joy and excitement!

He was set apart as a missionary on February 1, 2013 with his parents present. His report date is February 6, 2013 at the Provo, Utah MTC (Missionary Training Center)!
