Week # 9

Hey there family!
So my companion has to get transfered because of knee troubles so tomorrow i get a new comp, Elder Roundy. We can now get out a ton more because we wont be stuck inside all day haha. But everything is going good over here, i have still only seen it sprinkle twice so i am pretty certain that actual rain is a myth...which is depressing because i love it haha.
Korri is still on date for the 17, still working on Jeff. They were out of town for most of this week but we were able to have a really good lesson last monday. We broke apart 2 Nephi 31 and just pounded it. They loved it, especially Jeff, he is very to the point and straight forward so he loved the way we did it. And then we showed them the Mormon Message by Elder Holland, 'And None Were With Him' i think its called. Absolutly beautiful, Elder Holland has so much power, and the message of Christ's sacrifice hit all of us.
So hopefully everything works out for them and there two kids!
Funny (slightly disturbing) story, something tells me Susy and my mom will like this one the most haha.
A few weeks ago we were helping some members build a shed for this older nonmember couple. Keep in mind the members are pretty old too.
But Sister Weenig is talking to the lady and they are talking about some place they both had been to a some point. Sister Weenig says "oh yes we have been there, i drove Val over one time. He asked where we were going and i said" (at this point she has this sly little smile on her face) "to a hotel"........They both just laughed...as i proceeded to throw up in my mouth a little bit :) hahaha
It has been a little difficult to get out of the house the past couple weeks because of Elder Bell's knee but we did our best. Nothing really ever came of it though...untill randomly Brother and Sister Smith brought this lady and her husband to Church on Sunday! And she wants to be taught and read the Book of Mormon!
Heck ya! Thats what happens when you just work anyway even when it seems like nothing is happening!
I love it out here, i am having a blast!
Ill tell you all the same thing we tell everyone we talk to...read your scriptures!!! There is such a power in the Book of Mormon! One that people can physically feel. If you have a problem...take it to the Lord, who better to ask! He never gets tired of hearing from us...if that was true I would be a mute by now haha.
I hope everyone is doing well!
Remember! The Church is true, God loves us, and the best is yet to come!
I love you all.
Elder Dutson
