Hey Everyone,

Well I just received my "Trunkie Call" or the call that they plan how I will be going home. I will be flying by the way and when you guys want I can drive up and back with you to let you meet people that I have met on the mission. I am going to answer the questions now.

Love you all

Elder Lunt

President's Letter:

Dear President,

The week has gone well. There are several people that we were able to set up lessons with. We want those 20 lessons. We have been telling ward mission leaders and bishops of our goal. It seems they are more willing when we tell them of the goal.

I have written a parable for District meeting i would like your thoughts on it.

The Parable Of The Invitations:

A certain missionary had a member family commit to invite their non-member friend to meet with him.He went off to work in the area and said, "I will be back in a few days to follow up." The missionary returned to find that the family out of fear had not invited their friends. And he was wroth with them and sorely rebuked them (whether aloud or in his mind it does not matter). That night the missionary had a lesson with a new investigator. When the time came for him to extend the invitation for them to be baptized out of fear he did not invite them.

I desire that each missionary in the Lord's district will invite investigators to be baptized each time they see them, so the investigator can repent.

Thanks again President.

Love

Elder Lunt

THERE WAS ONE WARD MISSION LEADER THAT RIGHT AWAY REJECTED THE LIST AND SAID THAT WE WERE JUST LOOKING FOR EASY BAPTISMS. I REALLY FELT LIKE ALL THE WARD MISSION LEADERS MIGHT START FEELING THE SAME WAY. ONE OF THEM (BROTHER ATKINSON) WANTED TO HELP US WITH THE ONES IN THE WARD. WE WENT TO THE HOME OF THE PRISKS AND BEGAN TALKING ABOUT THEIR GRANDSON KADEN. THEY TOLD US THEY DIDN'T WANT US TEACHING HIM AND WE LEFT DISCOURAGED. ABOUT A MONTH LATER WE WERE OUT WITH BROTHER ATKINSON AGAIN AND I HAD THE FEELING THAT WE NEEDED TO STOP THERE AGAIN. ELDER KAFOA AND HIM GAVE ME A STRANGE LOOK AND SAID OK I GUESS WE CAN STOP BY. WE WENT AND FOUND THAT BROTHER PRISK WANTED US TO COME AND START TEACHING KADEN. WE STARTED TEACHING KADEN AND FOUND THAT BROTHER PRISK HAD BEEN DEVELOPING HIS KNOWLEDGE AND FAITH.
