The Book of Omni (Dallin)

Last Monday was a little crazy so I missed posting. Here it is:

Hey all!

I hope everyone is doing well! I'm good, but I'm starting to get tired of pulling goatheads out of my shoes. Haha.

On Wednesday, I went on my first companion exchange. My companion for the day was Elder Duce. He was a very nice and hardworking Elder! When he and I returned for the evening, the keypad to the garage was dead, and the homeowner was gone, so we had to go around the house and through a door that led into the garage, but was barricaded from the inside by a bunch of junk. Thankfully, I was able to squeeze through and open the garage door from the inside!

Did I ever tell you about Burger Bar? It's a burger joint that serves missionaries for free on Wednesdays, and their food is pretty good! I try to go there every week, if possible.

Kaden was excited to come to church yesterday, and he even bore his testimony!  I know the Lord will bless him immensely because of it! I'm glad the Spirit is so strong with him!

The Ducks have just about packed up everything and moved to their new house. I am sad to see them go, but I know their new house will be significantly better for them!

Thanks again for all of the wonderful emails you've been sending!

Take care, 

-Elder Atchley 

The people he lives with had 3 dogs. One of them passed away from kidney failure, and Dallin was pretty sad about that.

We had a family dinner at Steve's sister's house and she had everyone write a quick note to Dallin in one email. Dallin loved getting it and said he felt like he was reading the Book of Omni, just dedicated to him.

At one of his dinner appointments, the family was hosting an exchange student from Japan. Dallin got to use his Japanese, which he loved.
