Jayden Nelson is organizing this fundraiser.
I am preparing to go on a mission for the LDS church. I just earned my Eagle, I am in my last year of seminary, and I love the idea of sharing the gospel with people throughout the world. I have been saving for many years, but I have come upon a problem. My teeth. I have had some issues with straightening my teeth, and especially after my bike accident in 2012, I need braces.
This year has been a challenge for my parents financially with my brother needing to stay in the hospital for a month and my new baby sister. They are stretched to the limit, and braces just aren't something they can take care of right now. So, I am left with the decision of delaying my mission till I can fix my teeth, or asking for help from my family, friends, and community. My bishop suggested that I start a funding campaign on the internet, so here I am.
I know there are many worthy causes out there. With or without your support, I pledge to prepare myself well for my mission. I am studying the scriptures and getting used to talking to people, as well as studying Spanish and German so that I can hopefully utilize one of those languages on my mission.
With your support, I will be prepared much sooner to head out into the mission field and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. There are so many waiting to hear about their Savior. Please help me be a messenger for the Lord to share this message. Thank you for your support!

SOUTH OGDEN, Utah (ABC4 News) – A South Ogden man has been arrested for sex abuse of a 4-year-old after the little girl told her parents he had done sexually explicit things to her.
According to arresting documents, 21-year-old Jayden Becker Nelson was arrested on Monday and booked into the Weber County Jail.
Police said they responded to a report of a sexual abuse to the child’s home and were told by the child’s parents that Nelson was at their home for dinner on Sunday.
After Nelson left, their 4 year old daughter told them Nelson had inappropriately touched her with his fingers and his tongue while helping her change into her pajamas.
Nelson was asked to return to the child’s parents home where he was interviewed by police. Nelson admitted to the sexual abuse on Sunday as well as told officers he had sexually abused the same child a year earlier.
Nelson is facing two counts of first-degree felony aggravated sexual abuse of a child involving penetration and two first-degree felony counts of sodomy.
