Letter of Love - Moving to Philippines Antipolo Mission

So James is officially moving to the Philippines Antipolo Mission as of tomorrow.  This past week, we received a wonderful note from President and Sister Davies.  I thought I would share it below:

Dear Missionary Family,
One of our beloved missionaries, Adam James Kilgore Dunyon, will complete him mission in the Philippines San Pablo Mission on July 1, 2019. He has been reassigned to Philippines Antipolo Mission. This email is being sent to the missionary's family as well as their priesthood leader.
Sister Davies and I want to thank you for sending us such a wonderful missionary to serve here in the Philippines San Pablo Mission. Elder Dunyon is a fine missionary who worked hard and served the Lord well. Elder Dunyon has been a distinguished, trustworthy, and obedient servant who has faithfully served here. We have been inspired by his willingness to learn and sacrifice for the growth of the kingdom. He has been greatly loved and respected by members and missionaries alike. We have seen great growth in him .
Elder Dunyon has learned and experienced much of what is good and will continue on the path that was started here in the Philippines San Pablo Mission. He has a strong testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and will be a great asset in their new assignment.
When he returns to you, please convey the great love Sister Davies and I have for him .
Respectfully,
President Douglas K. Davies
Sister Barbara K. Davies
Philippines San Pablo Mission

I've updated the mission map and the mission address on the blog side bars.

Here is what we heard from James this week:

There were some really cool things that happened!! On exchanges on Tuesday, we went to a Iglesia ni cristo meeting because there was an investigator who is INC and this church is probably one of the weirdest ones ever. I SWEAR it is just like a business!! It was crazy and I tell you, everyone's eyes looked dead inside, like they really hated life! It was crazy!! Then through out this week we were able to meet with several of our progressing investigators and they are doing well! Just trying to get them to church. They couldn't this week because many of them were heading out of town or were busy. But not like the "busy" they actually were taking care of stuff like getting electricity to their house because hey have none!! Right now, We are excited for the Delos Santos family, the only issue is they need to be married first so we are working with that too!!! We also met this GOLDEN FAMILY!!! It is a husband an wife with 6 KIDS!!! and they were so accepting of us an want us to come back every Saturday!!  Hopefully they can keep growing and progress!!

Then bitter sweet is we left the San Pablo mission to the new Antipolo mission. There are already new changes. We have a meeting this Thursday with the mission president. District council is now on Tuesdays and transfers are now on Wednesdays we think!! So crazy!!! Other than that is was an alright week!!

Love Elder Dunyon
