hey family hows it going??? everything is so dang good here in chihuahua!!!
we had stake conference this week and our bishop is now the 2nd counseler of the President and my district had 26 investigators in the sunday morning meeting!!!!! that was super cool and we talked to all the investigators after and they all talked about how when President angulo talked he has a voice that you just straight up cant ignore haha i told them that i had many opportunities to get chewed out by him when i was in the offices haha jk but yeah President talked about the definition of condemnation and in the scriptures it talks about how its a state of no progress. i liked that a lot and he talked about how if we are not progressing or preparing ourselves everyday...which is our purpose in life, alma 34:32....we are in the state of condemnation. How direct? there are so many things that we NEED to do everyday to help us prepare for the eternal life. for example reading the scriptures daily or praying, family prayers and personal. soo soo soo many things, little things but escencial that we have to do.
its amazing to see how much the gospel has changed my life here in the mission. haha i lucked out so much to come here to chihuahua. this gospel can do that for absolutely anyone too. and actually this week we are gonna have a baptism for someone that is proof of that.. his name is rey david (king david haha) and he used to live in arizona and was a cholo (thug) he dealed with all that kinda stuff and got sent back here to mexico. he continued living his life like that for a while here and his wife is a member less active. one day he just decided to change completely... we got a call from his wife and we went to go talk to him... something suupper crazy happened that week but i´ll have to wait til after the mission to tell you about that haha but yeah now he is soo soo active in the church. he doesnt have work right now and so we taught him about fasting and he was like yeah man lets do it haha he still has the cholo accent haha but he has such a strong testimony. he is one of the biggest examples of faith that i have in my life. he believes 110 percent that if he puts the things of the Lord first in his life the Lord will bless him. he is doing absolutely everything that we ask him and we actually had a miracle and one of our other investigators said in his work they need some more people but we are gonna find out today if David got it or not.
hahah dayton i think you´ve gotten funnier and i loved your letter you sent this week i laughed so hard. haha i hope everything is going super duper well !! can you believe that general conference is in like 5 weeks???!!!??? how awesome. but yeah so we are gonna baptize david this week and we are super pumped i´ll send a picture of him to you after the baptism he is so awesome.
Love you so much,
Elder Nunley
