Hello everyone!
This week was pretty crazy. We had a lot going on and the time flew by!
We were in Lille for District meeting, then
Wednesday,
we went out with the Pierache family all day to visit members who lived
far away. Our ward boundaries are HUGE and it takes several hours to
get to some members homes. So they took the day off again to spend 8
hours with us. They are unbelievable!
We visited our Bishop's home this week. They live a good hour
away from the church. Their son got baptized this week so we planned a
special lesson for him on missionary work. We're going in each family's
home in the ward and presenting a family mission plan to help them in
their missionary efforts. It's been really great! We made the plan a
little more adapted to Sam for his baptism and typed up an offical
mission call for him calling him to Salt Lake city leaving in 2024. It
was pretty fun. He opened it up for everyone and we asked him what he
would need as a missionary and went through what he could do now. Then
we showed the little video from the Hastening the Work broadcast of
"I'll go where you want me to Go" with the family who does missionary
work. It was so cool and the spirit was strong. I have a huge testimony
of member missionary work. It's the only way!
We went to Samuel's baptism this weekend as well. They asked
me to do a musical number and that was fun! It was incredible; Jeremie,
the bishop is the only member in his family, so they took it as a
missionary opportunity and invited their family who aren't members. it
was beautiful and so powerful to see their willingness to serve. They
are an incredible family. There were a TON of people there.
I also spent my Valentine's day in Belgium! It was a blast! I
got to go with one of my best friends out here, Soeur Holmes! She is
from Provo and is incredible. We're going to live together some day! But
we had an incredible experience with a lady the Elders passed them. The
Elders had found her from a referral from her neighbor. She and her
husband had tried for years and years to have a baby, they finally got
pregant and she had their baby. Her husband passed away a week later
unexpectedly from cancer. Needless to say, she was in a pretty dark
place. She is one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met. They taught her a
little bit of the plan of salvation when they taught her the first
time. But they decided to pass her to the sisters and we had a joint
rendez-vous with the Elders to pass her over. The spirit was so strong
as we testified of the Atonement and that Christ made it possible for
her to be with her husband again. She just sobbed and cried and we felt
so much love for her. I had a scripture come to me that we shared with
her. It's Jacob 2:8
"And it supposeth me that they have come up hither to hear the pleasing aword of God, yea, the word which healeth the
wounded soul."
She just cried and cried as we testified to her. It was a tender moment
on my mission and one that i'll never forget. We felt so much hope for
her. It was an incredible exchange and I even got to eat my first
Beligum gaufre (waffle). And see the little peeing boy! One of the most
famous things in Beligum. (weird i know)
But we're excited for this week
to have more time to continue to contact all the people we found last
week! Excited to spend more time in our ville. We also have interviews
with President and Soeur Poznanski. It will be one of our last ones. I'm
excited to learn from them. they're incredible
Well I love you all a lot! And i hope you have a great week. thanks for all of your support, love and prayers. They are felt!
LOVE YOU
Soeur Cameron
