My dog bite...
Hey everyone,
How are things in good 'ol Mesa, AZ? All is well here in Whitefish. The weather is starting to warm up a bit, we had our last snow in early May! We are still working on some of our investigators. Mike is still having trouble with his smoking and the other day we went by to check on him and he was drinking a BudLight! I seriously got after him for that... he still comes to church and continues to learn!

We met with Stephanie, she is still afraid of what her family would say about her getting baptized, she feels all alone! I was reminded of a story I told her about a lady who was in the same position, no family there for her, she was also scared of what her family might say about her becoming a member of the church, but she was filled with the spirit and knew what was right, this lady I speak of is my mom! Now, Stephanie wants to set her baptismal date!

Erin and Jamie Lopez were baptized, I was blessed to baptise Erin and Elder Best baptized Jamie. We are so happy for them; our eyes were filled with tears. They are making steps to be an eternal family with their 17 month old son, Ethan.

We then had a not so good day, We were tracting and this guy met us in the driveway with a rifle and started cussing at us, then spit right in my face!! I was so angry, but then I felt the Spirit and I simply said, "Sorry sir, have a nice day!" It was a bitter sweet experience!

It was great to talk to everyone on Mother's Day, it was like a breath of fresh air! I even heard my little nephew Benjamin's voice!

We had to say goodbye to Elder Best, he has completed his mission and has headed for home, he was an awesome companion! My new companion's name is Elder Welch, he is from Provo, UT! We teach well together.

The work is still moving forward. I love missionary work, even if you get bit by a dog, YES I was bitten by a dog, but I am almost healed!

I am thankful for the blessing of eternal families. This church is true, I love the Lord, The Gospel is True!!!!

Love from Montana,
Elder Jordan Unga
