I watched this video a couple of days ago and oh my goodness it's great! I loved it! The cinematography was amazing! And it's a good message (: Yay for Mormon messages!

I don't know weeks. Some people label their emails as what week they're in. I have no idea. I just go forward!
Alright family.
From the beginning!
Sunday, a member, who is my age, is letting me borrow her camera. Hooray! So I'm back to taking pictures! I bought myself an SD card, and we'll see what happens when I get transferred.
Tuesday, we had interviews with President Porter (love that man). The first thing he says when we walk into the room is, "Can you believe you've been out a year already?!" Uh, no! That's not right, I think we got the math wrong. Haha. He and I came out around the same time, so it's fun cause we are the same "age" in mission. A year. Sheesh. Then he went on to tell me how much I've grown on my mission, and especially here lately, I've just exploded! He said he's so proud of me. He told me that in the beginning of my mission I was pretty stubborn (ha!... true), but now he sees that I am more humble and meek, and lowly of heart and he can tell that I am wanting to follow the Lords will. That I will ask Him where I need to be and follow it. It was neat to hear, cause that's what dad emailed me this week! (I'm telling ya, President Porter and Dad are on the same spiritual wave length like all the time!) Dad said that he can see my will aligning with the will of the Lord. And I can see it as well. And let me tell you, when we trust in the Lord and follow His guidance and promptings, things work out, we're happier, and it's easier. I'm grateful for the lessons I've learned on my mission and the many more to come! (:
We found an investigator, Curtis, he's 24 and African American and on fire! We met with him 4 days in a row! And we talk all gospel, and the Spirit is SO strong! He's super smart. He was so excited when we told him about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. We gave him a church tour and he loved it! And he kept telling us how much he wants to get baptized. But for some reason he didn't come to church. We even had a ride set up, who went to pick him up, but Curtis told the ride that he wasn't coming... So that was a bummer. So we're going to have to get with Curtis to find out what happened. But really, Curtis is the elect, it was amazing that we found him! He has taught me so much, it's been great!
Today was our Zone Fun Day! Hooray! Once a transfer, so it's always exciting to get with other missionaries. Especially when Sister Sofele is in the same zone as I (: We've been together our whole missions, minus 2 transfers! That's amazing! It's SO much fun. We're a hoot. So today we went and played soccer. And I played! I did it! I am not a soccer player, but that's okay, cause we just all go out and have fun! And guess what?! I even scored a goal! WOOHOO! Go team Sister Dunn! Making points! It was a lot of fun. And I even prepared myself and put on sunblock! And thank goodness I did, cause that sun was hot! But it was so much fun. Oh! Sister Sofele told me she lost her camera this week! I'm telling you, we're the same. Haha. So that was sad... We were bummed cause every time we're together we take a picture, so we were sad cause now both of ours are all lost! Dangit. Thank goodness I'd been sending lots of my pictures home! Phew.
That was about it. It was a great week! It went by SUPER fast! I couldn't believe that it was already Monday!
I love you all so very much! Thanks for the support and the love! It really is felt all the way over here in Indiana!
OH! Grandma emailed me last week and told me that Grandpa had sold some special thing to one of the hospitals here in Fort Wayne! Grandpa walked the streets I'm walking! And Dad only lived about 2 hours from where I am! I think that is SO cool! (: Dad, we'll have to come back and visit my mission and where you lived. I want to go to Indy and check it out too!
Alright. Hope you have a GREAT week!
LOVE YOU ALL!

Sister Sofele and I at interviews! Sometimes we accidently match (:
This is what happens when you give your camera to one of the Assistants. Hah! That's Elder Martin who lived in Medford, Oregon! Cool!
Sister Montrose and I after we worked in the Family History Library digitizing really old books.
Just messing around with the settings on the camera. That's a picture of Jesus that we have on our dashboard (:
Indiana!
Took lots of selfies, in case you forgot what I looked like!
A less-active had a garden that she showed us. Her corn was looking great! I know how hard it is to grow corn!
Random. Found these in the back seat of a member who went out with us. Hah!
After playing soccer. We realized that we are really out of shape. haha!
Corny. We're funny. You should have seen us playing soccer. We were on opposite teams. Hilarious. All rules go out the window when we are fighting over the ball. It's fun.
Part of the group after soccer! We were missing a couple elders. It was a lot of fun (:
I love you all SO much! Thanks for the emails, and thanks for the letter mom! And also Grandma! And the pictures that you send. Those are fun to see (:
LOVE YOU!
