HEY EVERYONE,

WOW IT IS CRAZY HOW FAST THE WEEKS GO BY. THIS WEEK HASN'T BEEN TOO GOOD. MY COMPANION IS SICK WITH THE STOMACH FLU. I HAVEN'T GOTTEN IT AND HOPE TO KEEP AVOIDING IT. WE WILL SEE HOW GOOD I DO AT THAT.

I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY E-MAILS FROM NATHAN BUT IT HAPPENS WHEN ONE THING IS WRONG IN AN EMAIL ADDRESS. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.

THE INVESTIGATORS THAT WE DROPPED WERE NOT WANTING TO BE BAPTIZED AT ALL. ALL THEY WANTED WAS SOMEONE TO TALK ABOUT JESUS WITH. I LIKE THEM BUT THE LORD HAS SENT US OUT HERE TO HELP HIS KINGDOM TO GROW. WE ARE NOT ABLE TO HAVE THAT HAPPEN IF WE ARE WORKING WITH PEOPLE THAT AREN'T READY. WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE LORD PREPARES THEM TO JOIN HIS CHURCH.

LAST NIGHT I HAD A DREAM ABOUT THE TREE OF LIFE. I WAS STANDING WITH NEPHI AND HIS FAMILY. LEHI BECKONS THEM TO COME, SO SARIAH, NEPHI AND SAM GO. HE TRIES TO GET LAMAN AND LEMUEL TO COME BUT THEY TURN TO THE GREAT AND SPACIOUS BUILDING. LEHI LOOKED SO SAD... HE THEN BECKONED ME SO I WALKED TOWARDS HIM BUT THE MIST CAME. I FOUND THE ROD AND WALKED FORWARD FOR SOME REASON I LET GO. I GOT LOST BUT AS I WAS SEARCHING I FOUND MAX. I LEAD HIM AND FOUND OUR WAY BACK TO THE ROD AND WE CONTINUED FORWARD. THEN I WOKE TO MY ALARM. I THINK I HAD THAT DREAM BECAUSE I STUDIED THE STORY OF THE TREE OF LIFE THAT DAY AND WAS THINKING ABOUT IT AND HOW IT APPLIED TO ME AND THEN I FELL ASLEEP.

I AM GLAD THE LORDS WORK CONTINUES IN THE CACTUS VIEW WARD. I AM ALSO HAPPY TO HEAR THAT BUILDING WORK CONTINUES.

WE DO HAVE DINNER APPOINTMENTS EVERY NIGHT BUT I HAVE NOT HAD ANYTHING I DIDN'T WANT TO EAT OTHER THAN HAWAIIAN PIZZA. I DO NOT LIKE PINEAPPLES.

TELL SISTER DEASON I SAID HELLO AND I LOVE HER.

LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH
ELDER LUNT
