I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him--to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine. My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. How great is my calling! • My Missionary Commission • Elder Bruce R. McConkie •

LETTER: Elder Colton Nunley • July 25th, 2011

hey family!!!

oh man sorry i didnt write last week i was so stinkin sick!!! for real im not even gonna try to explain what i had but the good thing is the day after it was all gone. just an oober bad infection in the stomach.

so i only read the letter from you guys for this week but im gonna print the other one off just incase there was something important that i need to know haha. but yeah so i am no longer in saucillo. im in chihuahua again and im disrict leader and my area is super freaking awesome. its huge too. its the second biggest one in chihuahua. all the members are absolutely awesome here and we are have baptisms left and right for august we should have a baptism every weekend!!!!! how awesome!!! the Lord is really preparing the people here and it is so nice to be in a big town. i loved saucillo but i felt like every time i passed someone in the street it was someone i had already taught and didnt want to hear more haha and that was just with three months down there.

so ive been reading the talk from President Uchtdorf from the confrence in october about Pride and i love it. and im just starting 3 nefi in the book of mormon and in chapter 6 verses 13 to 18 (i think) talk about how all satan needs to start working in us is pride. and President Uchtdorf talked about how every single sin stems from Pride.

hahaha mom you would not believe how much patience i have learned on the mission and the funny thing is, is that im still super impacient!!!! that just goes to prove that the Lord does give us weaknesses so that we depend on Him because being impacient in the mission doesnt work very well.

My companion is another mexcian his name is Elder Hernandez Rìos and he is way cool. we are workin together really well already. he is super short and pretty dang funny haha

but yeah i`ve already got to go but i just hope you guys know i absolutely love the mission and The Lord definately is watching over me at all times.( that reminds me i have a super crazy story for you guys after the mission cuz i cant tell you it over internet...Mom would freak out haha) I love you guys so much and dont worry about a thing.

Con mucho amor,
Elder Nunley
