i got my package and i wish to thank you ever so much. you are so kind
and i loved the fun treats that are only found in america, land of the
free, and home of the brave. i was in much need of some candy. so thank
you. and the blouse fits great. it is like it was tailored for me.
this week was really something. probably the best
week we have had in a really long time. it had its ups and downs. but
overall it was a five star. maybe 4 and a half. but i like even
numbers. so we will stick to 5. but 5 is an odd number but it is a
whole number. so i guess what i am trying to say is i like whole numbers
not just even numbers. there are pros and cons to even and odd numbers.
but i will get into explaining why this week was a 5 star week.
but before i do i just want to say that i am glad our dad holds
the priesthood. and that he is worthy to act at all times. so way to go
dad. i think you are swell.
so i went on a
split this week with elder johnson. some call him baby face johnson. you
can imagine why. if you can t i will tell you why. it is because he
looks younger than he really is. he is really natalies age but he looks
like he is 17. i like him a lot. he is our zone leader who we
affectionately call zone lord. it was fun though we had some good times
and we also went to my very favorite restaurant of all time marathon
souvlaki. and i ate beaucoup.
right after our split was over we had zone
conference. and lets just say it was amazing. we talked about
justification and sanctification and the aaronic and melchezidek
priesthood. it was super cool. i will gather my notes and write a little
more about it next time. but what i loved about it was that we are
justified when we are baptized and we are sanctified when we receive the
holy ghost. and there is a lot more but it was super cool. read
doctrine and covenants 20 and 89 and 84. super cool.
at zone conference the fleet coordinator gave his
testimony. it was his last time at zone conference before he goes home.
he actually lives by the temple. right across the street from the
ortons. how neat is that. he and his wife are the best. but in his
testimony he said, "i love missionaries. i love when two elders go and
hit each other on the chest. in any other situation i would think they
were two homo-sexuals. but it is good clean pure love." he is a funny
guy. haha kind of odd. but he has a great testimony of the gospel.
then the next day we went to sister donna's mothers
funeral. it was really strange. her mother was catholic. and all of her
family except for donna. but it was really good that we went. i love
sister donna. she is so nice to us. we always make her laugh too.
so we spent a lot of time in montreal this week haha. kind of a strange week. but it was good.
then we had branch conference this week. it was tellement bon. best sunday
so far in chomedey no doubt. elder duran and myself sang a primary song
in sacrament. a child's prayer. it was super neat. all of the members
loved it haha. basically we do whatever the branch pres tells us to do
haha. he is so great though. our stake president gave a great lesson
about if we love Jesus. then he would not have to ask us if we have done
our home teaching ect. it was a very good lesson. we watched the talk
that elder holland gave in the october 2012 conference. so this week i
commit you all to ask yourselves: do you love Christ. do you show your
love? do you have to be asked or do you accomplish all that is expected
of you. that has been going through my head this past week. I love
Jesus. I know He lives. I know He suffered for our sins. He is the
Saviour of the world. He is my brother my Kind and my friend. I love you
all and i pray for you everyday. without fail.
Elder cam
