The new ward has some challenges, just like every ward, but they are really great!! There are some true highlights in the ward and it is amazing!! The new area is going great!! We are having a ton of fun and are praying we can keep doing the right things!! We should have a baptism on Dec 29 for a part member boy who wasn't baptized, and one on January 11 for this amazing 21 year old the Lord blessed us to meet just last Saturday. The boy's name is JD, and the 21 year old is Rayden.
We met Rayden going to this house of a former investigator from 6 months ago. He is not related to them but he is their tropa (friend group). We ended up sharing a little to him and he said he would try to go to the church the next day!! He ended up not being able to go, but we went back and shared a message with him about the restoration, and he was so grateful for it! He said that he has tried so many different churches, but feels that they are lacking something, and when we came and spoke to him, there was a little difference. We asked when we could come back, and he was like, "Tomorrow".
So we went back and share about the Plan Of Salvation, and the steps we take to get back to Heavenly Father, and he was pretty interested. At the end of the lesson, even though it was just the second lesson, we were prompted to ask him to be baptized, and he said YES! So we set his day for January 11 to make sure he understands everything before he is baptized!! We are so excited and are so thankful for the many blessings of the Lord and want to make sure we are always doing the right thing so we can keep receiving those!!
We also had a full mission conference this past week, and Elder Whitney Clayton came and spoke to us. It was a really good meeting that was 3 hours of Elder Bangerter and Elder Clayton. It was go go go and no time to take a break or do anything. Here are some pictures:
That's about it for this week. Still working hard and LOVING IT!!! More pictures below.
Love Elder Dunyon
