Dear Family and Friends,

I will think about those options for school, right now I'm leaning towards coming back and doing the online classes, but I will think about it and pray about it! Thank you for looking into that!

I'm glad that ya'll are having a good start to the break! Eat lots and then sleep much!!! Hehehe!!!  

"Go, fight, win..." Emily!!! Become the best you can be!!

I can't think of anything that I need right now, but I'll let you know!

Dad that's awesome that you talked about missionary stuff!!!! There is nothing like doing missionary work!! Maybe next time you can keep mom awake!! Haha!! Use some hand gestures or something! Haha!!!

 

Rhonda and Becky are doing good!!! They have both agreed to be baptized but we are in the process of setting a date with them! Rhonda is trying to get work off on Sundays so she can come (so we are holding off with her until she can come to church), and Becky we just gotta get her to Church, she wasn't able to make it yesturday because she accidently made plans forgetting that she was going to come to church. haha! But she and Destiny (her daughter) should be coming next week!!! It will be good! Pres. Jensen has asked all the Stakes in the Mission to have a missionary sacrament meeting where basic truths of the gospel will be taught and where members are encouraged to bring at least a friend, and that is going to be on the 25th. Hopefully that goes well for us!!! That's about all that was exciting about this week. We are still struggling to get new investigators, but we keep trying!! There's a member that wants us to try some of her friends, but we haven't had a chance to talk with her yet. But yeah! That's our week, we are still getting fed alot and it will keep coming!!

Keep going and being examples to others of righteousness!!! I love y'all very much and pray for you daily!!

Love,

Elder Cameron Williams 

Dear Family and Friends,

I am emailing at a members house, I wasn't planning on it, but oh well! :) I only have one coloring book right now, it's a Star Wars one!! Things are going well!! Transfers are on Dec 5th, I'm 99% likely to stay here!! 

That's awesome that Jonathan is going on his mission!!! I figured he would go Spanish speaking!! That's unfortunate that he will be in the MTC during Christmas, not gonna be able to call home, but I guess that won't be too bad because he will have only been in the MTC for a week! But that's awesome!!

Keep working hard Emily!! With the "height" that people say you have you will be a great asset to your team, you just need to learn how to be a big man!! Maybe Laura could give you some pointers, and I will be home during the middle of the season most likely, I don't know how your season is going to be since there is only 2 teams?!  

Haha!!! voting! alot of people around here were very surprised that Elder Ogilvie and I aren't registered to vote, many people got after us a little bit! 

Well this week was good, we had some good lessons with Rhonda and Becky!! They said they would be baptized, but we are going to wait to pick a date when Rhonda can get Sundays off! We taught them the Plan of Salvation and they both said that they REALLY liked the lesson!!! They are coming along good!! (Keep praying for them!!) We also did alot of service this week!! We tore up the top boards of a ramp and layed down new boards! It was fun! We are both on a no letter streak from friends for the last couple weeks!! But we are making it!! On Friday we had Zone Conference and it was great!!! We found out that by September next year the Florida Tallahassee Mission will have 100 sister missionaries, as compared to the 12-15 that we have now!!! And the rumor is that soon there are going to be 2 missionary companionships per church unit because of the inflex of missionaries submitting their papers!! We now have councilors in the mission presidency! It was awesome!!! Well that pretty much does it for now!!

I love y'all!!!

Love,

Elder Cameron Williams

Dear Family and Friends!!!!

My week was bitter sweet! I got 2 packages Monday and the other I got Wednesday I think. The bar doughnuts  got a little squished but that's it! The presents were AWESOME!!! THANK YOU!!!! The Yoda light thing was AWESOME!!!! I'll tell more about my week and my birthday in a minute!

 

Sounds like y'all had a fun Halloween!!!  That is a great idea to sit outside and let them come!! Emily didn't trick or treat?!?!?!?!? That's odd!!! I woulda thought she'd do that!! Well I guess that streak had to end eventually!  It's sad that it did! But life moves on!

Where are the doors going downstairs? Are y'all puttin in more than 1 door?

 

Ok so Monday was MY BIRTHDAY!!!!! And we had to spend the day in Bristol because they didn't have enough miles to get us back to Hosford and we waited for our ride to dinner to pick us up, we went to one of the family gatherings celebrating many things and a one last party before some move out to Idaho (I'll talk more about later) and there was a fire because it was cold, and it we had a great time! We get home and Elder Ogilvie doesn't have the keys!?! He looks in his backpack and can't find them, so he calls the Bristol Elders and asks them to look there, they find them. So now the trick was figuring out how to get them from Bristol to us! We called to see if the Lawsons were still at the party (The party was about 5 milesish from Bristol), they were still there and Bro Lawson went to get them and bring them to us. In the mean time, it was COLD!! Then I realized  hey! I have a ligther, I have paper, there is a bunch of wood around here, let's build a fire!! So we use our Eagle Scout skills and built a fire!! We almost didn't have enough paper to get the fire going but we checked the mail and there was some adds that we don't use so we use it and got the fire going!! We waited about 20 minutes, but hey! It makes for great memories!!!! Building a fire waiting for our keys to get here and opening presents! It definately was an eventful day!!

We did a TON of service this week, we helped our ward mission leader load up a trailer for his exodus to Idaho, he is moving there for work, and that took up alot of time Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesday after we helped him move he took us to the church for the Trunk or Treat (By the way thanks for the candy!! We used it all and then another 4 bags of candy(provided by the ward)!) I was going to be a cowboy but one of the Bristol elders was going to do that too! So I just wore jeans, t-shirt, and a jacket, I latter thought that I should've dressed up as one of the men in black!!! But alas it be too late!  There were at least 700 people come to the Trunk or Treat!! There were alot of costumes and cool trunks!! I didn't get to see much because we manned the trunk most of the time! But it was great!! We passed out alot of Bibles, Book of Mormons, DVDs, and pamphlets too!!

All the times this week we tried to meet with Rhonda, Becky, and Billy didn't work out so we didn't see much of them this week! Aside from all the parties and Elder Ogilvie being sick this week was very slow!! But this week will be better!!

   Oh mom!! there is a member here from Sterling, Alberta (At least I think it was Sterling, but she knows Magrath and Lethbridge)! She's in her 30s. We haven't talked Canada yet because we haven't seen her much, but she and her family moved from there to Tallahassee at least 10-15 years ago and then she got married about 10 years ago and moved here! That's about all I know. I'll tell more when we talk Canada!

Well I think that'll do, I love y'all!!

Love,

Elder Cameron Williams

Cameron's Letter Oct 29, 2012

Dear Family and Friends!!

Thank you very much for the Birthday wish!! Unfortunately the mail hadn't come by the time we had to leave so I don't know if I got the packages or not and I won't be able to find out until tonight because we are going to be stuck in Bristol until after dinner (Bristol doesn't have enough miles to get us home)! Well I ain't gonna be doing much, just hang out with the Bristol Elders, there isn't really anything cool we could go do here  I had my birthday cake last night, the picture is of me and my cake, there was also a video taken but I don't think I can send it to y'all, y'all will just have to wait 2 1/2 months to see it!! It was an AWESOME party though! It made me feel loved!!

I didn't register to vote because I thought I had to register in Utah since that's where I will be living.

Sounds like y'all had a good week! I hope you are recooping well Dad!!

I'm glad that y'all had fun together!!

 

This week was pretty good! We were able to go and read 3 Nephi 11 with Becky and answer some more questions! She and Rhonda are both really liking what we are saying, but Rhonda talked about her baptism and made it seem like she thinks she doesn't need to be baptized again, so that's something we are going to try and work on!! They invited us over for a BBQ Saturday evening so we think that they like us!! Unfortunately they didn't come to church because it was Rhonda's Birthday on Sunday!  But we think that it will take a little time but they will move along!

We are also working with a man named Billy and he's an older gentlemen and he has told us that he is very impressed with us because we go out and visit people and show genuine love for them and he has told us that he wants to give up drinking and smoking, he wants to get right with God! He use to be a preacher and he doesn't like all the other churches in the area, he told us that we have something that he wants, we're trying to help him understand, but it will take a while because he asks ALOT of questions, which is great, but it will make the process a little longer, but hey I'm not a push'em missionary! I go with them at their pace and help them in any way I can! He wanted to come to church but he forgot that he was going to go do stuff with his step son, but he says he REALLY wants to go! We hope he acts and isn't just talk! It is starting to get cool here (60s) but it will warm back up before Thanksgiving!

Well I think that will do for now! I love y'all very much!

Love,

Elder Cameron Williams
