Hey Everyone,
Well this week has been another uneventful one. I did not have to get the typhoid fever test but my companion did. If you want to know what it entails just look it up. It was disgusting just as a warning though. The reason they suspected it was one of the zone leaders got it and was because he had salmonella.
We have three investigators scheduled for baptism. One for the twenty-seventh of this month. One for the 17th of October and one for the tenth of October. The works seems to be picking up here.
It is good to hear that Covey got baptized. And the work continues. Also that the construction continues. It is too bad about the rain though.
Vijay and I have been e-mailing eachother each week.
I also wrote the Molzahn's.
I am glad that you found the problem with me not receiving the emails. I really appreciate the emails that I do receive. It is good to hear that everything is going well with Tarin and you. Sorry to hear about Tarin's job. It seems like things are getting hard for a lot of people. Those are good names for your dogs... Dave and Buster... Ha, ha! If you're moving to Mesa, I would encourage you to go to the Temple often. It is amazing, I feel so enlightened every time I go there.
I love you all so much,
Elder Lunt

HEY,
WELL NO E-MAILS FOR ME THIS WEEK. I GUESS YOU WERE ALL BUSY...
NOT TOO MUCH HAS BEEN HAPPENING THIS WEEK. I HAD A COLD OR SOMETHING FOR ABOUT TWO DAYS, BUT I USED SOME ZICAM AND THROAT SPRAY AND IT DISAPPEARED. MY COMPANION GOT HIS BEFORE ME AND IS STILL SUFFERING FROM IT.
FOUND OUT WE MIGHT HAVE TO GET TESTED FOR TYPHOID FEVER... SOUNDS FUN????
HOPE ALL IS WELL THERE.
LOVE ELDER LUNT

HEY EVERYONE,
SORRY THIS IS SO SHORT BUT AFTER READING YOUR AND VIJAY'S EMAIL I FELT I SHOULD TAKE SOME EXTRA TIME IN HELPING TO COMFORT HIM.
THIS WEEK MY COMPANION WAS SICK. I DID NOT GET SICK YEAH :-) I WAS ADVISED BY A FAMILY HERE TO DRINK PICKLE JUICE WHEN I HAD TO BE WITH HIM AND EVERY MORNING AND EVENING. I THINK THAT HELPED TO KEEP ME WELL. THE FAMILY SAID THAT THE VINEGAR IN IT KILLS THE VIRUS IN THE STOMACH AND KEEPS YOU FROM GETTING ILL. SO TRY IT THE NEXT TIME ANY OF YOU GET SICK TO GET BETTER FASTER. I FOUND OUT THAT IF ANYONE ELSE IN THE ZONE GETS SICK THOUGH WE WILL ALL HAVE TO GET TESTED FOR TYPHOID FEVER. THAT WOULD SUCK.
DESPITE HIS ILLNESS WE GOT A NEW INVESTIGATOR. SO IT WAS STILL A GOOD WEEK.
NOTHING ELSE REALLY HAPPENED TO US...
WELL IT IS GOOD TO HEAR THAT ALL WORK CONTINUES THERE BOTH THE LORD'S AND CONSTRUCTION.
I LOVE YOU ALL,
ELDER LUNT

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

HEY FAMILY,
WELL...I DIDN'T END UP DOING THE CONFIRMATION. HER UNCLE WAS ABLE TO COME. I WAS STILL HAPPY BECAUSE I FOUND OUT FROM THE CONVERT THAT SHE KNEW THE CHURCH WAS TRUE WHEN I TOLD THE STORY OF JOSEPH SMITH AND ADDED MY TESTIMONY. SHE SAID THAT I PHYSICALLY STARTED TO GLOW AND THE ROOM BRIGHTENED. I WOULD HAVE SAID THAT IT WAS THE SUN BUT WE WERE TEACHING HER AT NIGHT.
THIS WEEK HAS BEEN CRAZY. I FORGOT TO TELL YOU THAT THIS WEEK IS TRANSFERS BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I AM STAYING IN HYRUM WITH ELDER MITCHELL.
THE SPANISH ELDERS LIVE BELOW US AND ONE OF THEM IS MOVING (ELDER BROOKS) I WILL TRY TO GET PICTURES TO YOU ALL HE WAS VERY FUNNY AND HE CAME OUT EXACTLY A YEAR AFTER HIS BAPTISM. I CANT BELIEVE HOW CRAZY IT HAS BEEN.
NO NEW BAPTISMS ARE COMING UP. WE DROPPED ALL INVESTIGATORS THAT WEREN'T KEEPING COMMITMENTS.
WELL THE TAYLORS IN THIS AREA SAID THEY WANTED TO CALL YOU SO THEY SHOULD SOMETIME SOON.
I AM GLAD THAT THE WORK ON BUILDINGS HAS CONTINUED. I HOPE THAT IT KEEPS UP. ALSO IT SOUNDS LIKE BO AND DAISY ARE GETTING BETTER. HOW HAS THE TRAINING OF THE OTHERS DOGS BEEN?
I WILL SEND A LIST OF SUGGESTIONS FOR CHRISTMAS TO YOU MOM SINCE YOU ASKED WHAT I WANTED FOR CHRISTMAS. SOME OF WHICH I WOULD RATHER HAVE WAIT FOR ME TILL I GET HOME.
I WOULD WRITE MORE BUT WE GOT HERE LATE AND WE HAVE AN APPOINTMENT THAT WE HAVE TO GET TO.
LOVE

8-11-09: SIX MONTHS OUT!!
HEY EVERYONE
WOW ALREADY ONE QUARTER OF THE WAY THROUGH THE MISSION. IT HAS BEEN JUST FLYING BY. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FAST IT HAS GONE BY. IT IS SLOWLY STARTING TO COOL DOWN. I DO MISS THE HEAT. THIS WHOLE SUMMER I WORE LONG SLEEVES EXCEPT A FEW TIMES. MY COMPANIONS HAVE THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY, ESPECIALLY ELDER BOHNE.
I RECIEVED THE PACKAGE FROM POLMOROY'S. IT HAD THE THINGS THAT I NEEDED. I FINALLY THINK I AM ALMOST CAUGHT UP ON MY LETTER WRITING. I JUST HAVE A FEW LEFT .... I BET IT WILL NOT BE FOR LONG THE PEOPLE TO WRITE BACK SO IT WILL TAKE ME A WHILE TO ONCE AGAIN WRITE EVERYONE. OH WELL I LIKE RECEIVING THE LETTERS SO THAT IS ONE GOOD THING.
THIS SATURDAY WE HAVE A BAPTISM. THIS WILL BE MY FIRST TIME CONFIRMING A PERSON. I HAVE NOT YET BAPTIZED ANYONE OUT HERE BUT I PREFER THAT THE FELLOWSHIP DOES IT IF THEY ARE CLOSE TO THE INVESTIGATOR BECAUSE I SAW HOW MUCH MAX AND I GREW CLOSER AS FRIENDS AFTER HIS.
I HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED ANY E-MAILS FROM VIJAY BUT I HAVE NOT YET WRITTEN HIM ANY SO IT WILL PROBABLY BE A WHILE. I WILL HAVE TO TRY TO WRITE ONE TODAY SO LONG AS MY COMPANION DOES NOT FINISH TOO FAST.
IT HAS BEEN EXCITING OUT HERE.
I LOVE YOU ALL

HEY EVERYONE,
LOOKS LIKE THE REUNION WAS FUN. EVERYONE HAS DOGS NOW. THAT IS CRAZY HOPEFULLY THEY ARE ALL POTTY TRAINED OR SOON WILL BE. I HAVE HEARD THAT CRATE TRAINING WILL HELP THEM WITH GOING IN THE HOUSE AND WILL STOP THE PROBLEM. MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY IT. IT WOULD NOT BE FUN TO KEEP CLEANING THOSE MESSES UP. THANKS FOR ALL THE PICTURES.
I AM GLAD ALL IS GOING WELL THERE WITH BUILDING AND RS. ALL OTHER THINGS I HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT, HOPEFULLY THOSE ARE GOOD.
I HOPE YOU GET ON THAT TWENTY ONE DAY CHALLENGE SOON BECAUSE LIKE IT SAYS IN ALMA 29:9 YOU WILL GAIN JOY BY DOING THE WORK. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I SAW IT (WHEN I INVITED MAX) AND HAVE SEEN IT IN MY LIFE OUT HERE. I KNOW THAT IT WILL BRING YOU JOY. BUT REMEMBER THAT YOU MUST ACT ON THOSE OPPORTUNITIES THAT COME.
THINGS ARE GOING WELL. WE FOUND A 9 YEAR OLD GIRL THAT WANTED TO BE BAPTIZED AND HAD BEEN ATTENDING CHURCH AND READING THE SCRIPTURES SO SHE WAS BAPTIZED ON SUNDAY. THAT WAS THE FASTEST BAPTISM THAT I HAVE EVER BEEN INVOLVED IN.
WE HAVE ONE THAT IS PREPARING FOR BAPTISM. SHE IS REAL SOLID AND IS TRYING TO TEACH HER 5 YEAR OLD SON ALREADY.
I AM STILL IN A CAR AND ELDER MITCHELL IS DRIVING BUT I HAVE DRIVEN ON EXCHANGES.
LOVE YOU ALL
ELDER LUNT
