Well this week was both long and short at the same time!. We were able to get more members out this week to lessons which really increase the work and the friendships of the investigators and members. over this past week i have realized how important the members are in the work! they help keep recent converts active and give investigators a social conversion to get them to church so they can feel of the spirit and blessings there. we were able to put another investigator on date this week his name is mathew and his is 10 his parents are members but he still hasnt been baptized so we are working with him. please pray for him and his family. we were able to see jacob this week he was actually in south haven and we were with brother banner and saw him and went and picked him up and took him home! we had a good ride and talk with him and he was able to share his experiences with brother banner. We had to drop roosevelt because he is headed back to the dominican republic soon. but we gave a refferal to the missionaries down there. the town here is starting to get packed! on saturday we felt like we were walking in disney land there was so many people it is crazy! we have had a good memorial day we went golfing with some members and had some good barbeque and are going to a less actives for another barbeque tonight to hand out with rob again. me and rob that lives next to the klocks threw a baseball for about 30 mins the another day and just talked. he used to be really good at baseball til he fell 60 feet out of a tree onto concrete. he messed up his arm really bad. but we talked about just life and how things happen for a reason. i truly feel like some day rob and his family will be baptized. but for now we are just being friends to them. he invited me back after my mission already and told me i better come and visit. well i hope you are all doing good i love you all! one thing i learned this week in studies is the testimonies we have are the most powerful tool we have. from just a small and simple testimony that said something like " I am not a great speaker but i can tell you that the Book Of Mormon is true and i know this by the power of the Holy Ghost" is what made Brigham Young join the church and realize that the Book Of Mormon was the word of God because the holy ghost had testified to him that it was true.
i hope you all have a great week
Elder Dunn
