Well, it was great getting to talk to you all on Sunday. The reason that I talked for only 40 minutes was because I was being obedient to President Monson's rules for all missionaries, and if he says it then it comes from The Lord.

I ask that you all would pray for my companion's mother as she is having some after surgery complications.

I HAVE BEEN WORKING HARD OUT HERE. WE HAVE TWO BAPTISMS THIS WEEK. TAYLOR BENNETT IS BEING BAPTIZED AND SO IS BRENDAN CHILD. WE ARE GETTING EXCITED FOR HIM. HE IS AUTISTIC AND IS STRUGGLING BUT IS WINNING THE BATTLE AND IS RETAINING ENOUGH INFORMATION TO BE ABLE TO BE BAPTIZED.

THIS WEEK IS EXCITING. OH BY THE WAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY!!!!!!!!!

I HAVE BEEN DOING SO MUCH LEARNING AS I READ THE BOOK OF MORMON DAILY. I HAVE GROWN TO LOVE IT MORE THAN I EVER HAVE. I AM SO HAPPY TO HEAR THAT WORK IS STILL PROGRESSING. TODAY I WILL BE SENDING THAT CHALLENGE TO ALL OF YOU. NOT ONLY MOM AND DAD BUT FOR ALL OF YOU!! THIS WILL HELP TO HAVE THE LORD'S WORK PROGRESS IN ARIZONA AND IT WILL BRING A GREATER SENSE OF LOVE TO THE HOME.

I AM GLAD TO HEAR THAT YOU ALL ARE KEEPING WORK AND BEING ABLE TO HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO MEET NEEDS AND MORE. HAVE FUN AT FATHERS AND SONS. HAVE FUN ON GIRLS NIGHT OUT.

LOVE YOU ALL

ELDER LUNT
