News of Elder Cunningham

We received a lot of news from Elder Cunningham this Week.


He is thrilled to be serving in a bike area......

...but it does have it's challenges.

At least he isn't driving a car. We all count our blessings....
(this isn't a mission car, but just an accident they passed).


He and Elder Franks went to a dirt track one P-day. In his letter he wrote
"I should have listened to the spirit and not gone off that jump....."

"...and I should have followed the spirit and kept my helmet on."


Elder Franks and Elder Cunningham


Elder Cunningham was quite excited to participate in the district Easter Egg Hunt.....!

......Hosted by one of the families in their ward.



Then there was the huge conference with Elder L. Tom Perry.





One of the wards had an activity where cakes were decorated. Here are two of his favorites.




I don't think this is what they meant when they said you will finish your mission on bike.


Elder Cunningham has been transferred to Highland, CA. He picked up his new 'greenie' companion yesterday and is excited to be a trainer again.


May God Bless you!

The Work and Fun of Elder Cunningham

There are a lot of things that keep Elder Cunningham busy along with tracting and teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ ......


There is District Conference.....



... and then there is Zone Conference at the home of some members in Moreno Valley.

Of course, this is what happens when your hosts for Zone Conference are Polynesian.


You learn the Haka and how to dance the Hukilau.





Then there is work to be done in the zone. Hmmmm..... he wasn't kidding when he said he put on a few pounds. Look at those cheeks! :-)




Yes, he is patriotic!

There is also saying goodbye to an excellent companion.


Elder Houston finished his mission and is now back home in Idaho.

Then there was the zone Activity. Hiking up the Mountain!






Of course, Elder Cunningham can't just hike up the mount.....








And Finally, on February 20th Elder Cunningham hit his 18th month mark. It is mission tradition to burn a pair of pants to commemorate that date.



He seems a little sad to be so close to finishing his mission.
We are proud of you Elder!!
