Cameron's Letter March 26, 2012

Dear Family and Friends!!!!

My cough is doing better, I am fine in the morning but in the
afternoon and evening it comes back, well I think I should say this,
the mission doctor says that it was probably the beginning of
bronchitis (I don't know if I spelt that right) and he gave me a
subscription for Z-Pak and I took that. It will wear off on Thursday
and we will see how things are then! :)

Oh and I found out that I am being transferred to McRae,Georgia (it's
about 40 miles north west of Alma) and I am going to be with Elder
Chapman!!! :) I'm excited about that!!! :) And we will be opening
McRae so we will have some fun with that! :)

Sounds like yall had a fun busy week! And yet another week is gone!

Well this week was a slower week! The less active lady I told yall
about 2 weeks ago got evicted this week but the Church is paying for
her to stay in a hotel for a week so she has a place to stay while she
looks for a job. We helped her move into the hotel! I have begun to
love helping people move and helping people out in general! It makes
me feel good!! :) Oh! On Tuesday and Wednesday morning I went on an
exchange up in Jay and was with Elder Kirk! He is a funny Elder and he
sounds Canadian!!! Haha! He says "Don't you know" and "Eh" alot! Haha!
I'll get a picture with him tomorrow before I leave! :) This week I
have learned that I need to change my attitude for the better! I
haven't been the most excited to go out and actually start working but
once I'm out I do pretty good. So I need to more excited to do
missionary work! :) Well sorry that this is a short email but not much
else :/ But know that I love everyone that is reading this! Because if
yall are reading this then you care enough to know how I'm doing so I
am returning the favor the best way I can! I love yall! <3

Dear Family and Friends,

First off sorry my email is late, we had a hectic day! But my week has been pretty good!! I'll tell more about it in a minute. My cough has gotten a little worse, I don't remember what I told you about it but I talked to the mission doctor and he says it sounds like I might be getting broncitis I got some medicine at the Walmart pharmacy today. My cough hasn't been bad in the mornings but it gets worse in the afternoon evening times! I have taken Roba Tussin, Dayquil, Cough relief stuff from Walgreens and Halls. Not all at once but that is what I have taken for it!
I got your letter, thank you for sending it!! Sounds like eventful weeks! Yeah we kinda said the same thing but the guy didn't agree!

Well I'm gonna have to be short. This week we have helped out alot of people, and we found a man named Clay and we taught him the Restoration! He accepted a Book of Mormon and said he would give it a fair shake! We are praying for him!! And this week was good! Umm on Friday we got some training from President Jensen, the Assistants, and the Zone Leaders. I learned that I actually am not suppose to email chat, so we aren't gonna be able to do that anymore! :( And we have been asked to not recieve news on sports teams because we are supposed to keep ourselves focused on doing the Lords work and not things back home. So no more of that either. I actually have to go now, don't worry I will write more next week! I love yall soooooo much!

Love,
Elder Williams

Dear Family and Friends!!!! :)

See I told ya I wouldn't forget your Birthday Laura!! I spent at least
5-10 minutes looking for the perfect card! And I thought that one
would be the best for you!!! :)
That's awesome that Ammon is back!!! I bet he did a good job!! I will
be in the position in 10 months! It's weird to think that in one month
I will be in the single digit months til I return!! It will fly by if
I do what the Lord wants me to do!

Well I guess my email will be shorter too because I don't have much to
respond to your email and I already responded to it, so on with my
week!

This week I got an annoying cough! I still worked but I didn't like it
(the cough) coming up so much! We found a couple of potentials this
week! Some didn't show up for their appointments unfortunately and
some forgot what time we were coming! I don't know if you remember me
talking about Dennis, when I was here last. We went by and visited
with him Saturday! It was a good time and we will see him again on
Saturday, we intend to teach him when we go this time! And yesturday
we were looking for a less active member and when we went to the
address he didn't live there but another member lived there and she
lived alone with her 3 month old baby. She had been through alot of
struggles and alot of betrayal by family and friends! She told us she
has no friends any more! :( She wants to come to Church and we will do
our best to help her! We have thought of ways we could get the ward
involved and we want to talk it over with her just to make sure she is
good with it! I'm excited to work with her! :)
We also ran into alot of people who believe prophets aren't needed any
more :( which is sad! One man asked why do we need prophets to warn us
of things when we have the Holy Ghost to warn us? I didn't know quite
how to answer without saying anything that might offend him. And I
found out that the 1st Presidency Message this month is on the
Importance of Prophets!! I'm excited to read it!!

Well I think that does it for this weeks report. President Jensen has
asked us to send home everything that could distract us, so I will be
sending a package home either this week or next week!

Well that does it for now! I love yall and I am eager to hear more
about this week!

Love,
Elder Cameron Williams

Dear Family and Friends,

The baptism was awesome!! Francis was really excited for it and really surprised at how many members were excited for him!! It was awesome!!! He also got the Priesthood yesturday which was very exciting!! I am doing very well!! we got alot of rain on friday and saturday but no tornados! We were told that there was alot of that kind of weather in the mid west. I think I still have another 2 boxes of contacts so I am good for a little while, but I will let you know when they run out or are close to running out!! If you can find somebody to fix it without losing the data on the thumbdrive that would be great, but if that isn't possible that will be fine too! I don't need a new one right now, but I will let you know. I actually took everything off my other one and put it on that thumbdrive because one of the DeFuniak Elders wanted a video and the only way I could get it to work would be to put it on my other thumbdrive and give it to him so he could get the video off of it. He mailed it back to me last week and it doesn't have anything else on it, so I am good for right now!

Sounds like yall are having another usualish week! Haha!! Laura I won't forget your birthday this year!

That's great that Sister Thompson is coming back!!! Kamber is engaged?!? That's nuts!?! I go away for 2 years and everyone decides to get married!!! Who are you going to say next week that is engaged? Rachael?!?!? Haha! I will have alot of catching up to do when I come home!!!

Well this week hasn't been too eventful. Other than the baptism not much happened. On Wednesday Elder Price was feeling light headed and had an upset stomach so we didn't do much that day. We found out later that it was because he forgot to talk his meds! I think he said he has insomnia and the meds help him sleep. When we have been out and about we decided to drop by and see some less actives, and we have discovered many who moved away (sometimes at leas 2-3 years ago) and others who aren't interested anymore. It's unfortunate about all that there aren't enough men in the ward to do all the home teaching so many people don't get visits and they move away and nobody ever knows about it!

Oh on Saturday we finally got to see Pam again! It was great to see her again! We now have to work on getting her to come back to church! She moved to another house, which is actually closer to us and in the move she lost her scriptures and hasn't been coming to church! We are going to go by and see her tomorrow! And when we were leaving her house there was a car parked perpendicular with the road! It didn't look like anyone was in the car, Pam went to go see and there was an old man in the car. She said that he looked like he wa crying, but then we saw him coughing. Pam went inside to get her phone and called 911. She said the man wanted her to get in but she didn't want to, so she called and in a few minutes the ambulence showed up to check it out. Police showed up later too and they ended up taking him in the ambulence. The cops came and said that he probably had low blood sugar and found it out that he was parked the way he was parked! All that happened while it was raining! It was an interesting experience! Definately journal worthy!

Well I want yall to know how much I love you! Everyone who reads this is worthy of my love! I will talk to you next week!

Love,

Elder Cameron Williams
