Hello friends, family, loved ones

man this week was great. it is so great to be a missionary right now in this day and age. to be a servant of the Lord fulltime and to teach others about the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. i am so happy to be on the Lords team.

Everytime i think about emily at a cash register i freak out a little bit. i am still not over it. the only register i have ever seen her on is one that was made of plastic and had fake money. this is not right. i hope work is going well for you em. i remember the days of working in the real world. that was neat
speaking of neat things dad that tempest that waged in amercan fork sounds crazy. i hope that everyone is alive and well.  we have had some pretty crazy rain over here too. some days it just rains all day, and pretty hard. but today it is a beautiful day and we are going to the water falls! 
Mother i am in no current need of physical things. just keep praying for us missionaries. that is all we need to live. 
that is super funny that the little boy had a great day because of cookies. the same thing happened to us. we had these really good cookies and after that i was happy, reminds me of the time we were at youth conference and we had cookies in the basement of the members in manti. those cookies were amazing. i couldnt sleep after that

anyways... this week was a good one. we had a lot of funny things happen some cool miracles and some great talks

so first story, we were teaching english class and i was explaing the work ``nice`` i told the class that you can say oh you have a nice car or a nice dress. then a lady said, with a really thick french accent, you have nice eyes, so i said thank you, then she told me that she was not talking to me she was just using to word in a sentence. haha man it was hilarious all of the class started to make fun of me after that. I like english class. it is super fun. we always have a good time. 

second story: we were going to a former investigators house to see if we could visit him but unfortunately he had moved. But the lady that answered the door was really nice. we started talking with her to see if she was interested and we found out she has family that are members of the church.!!!!! how crazy is that. then we asked who they were and my companion knew one of them really well. it was super cool. there is no doubt in my mind that this was not just a coincidence. The Hand of the Lord was in this for sure. 

We had a priesthood meeting for the stake this week. it was really good.. it was held in drummondville which is the halfway mark for a lot of the wards. our stake geographically is giant. it is basically the entire penisula of quebec. the meeting was about addiction and how we can either get over it, help those who suffer from it, and how we can prevent ourselves from becoming slaves to it. it was a really good meeting. I think the main thing that i was reminded in this meeting is that we are never alone. even when we think we are. there is always someone that we can reach out to. And of course we always have a Savior to follow, Jesus Christ is the only way to become free. we watched a presentation on pornography and how horrible it is and how easy it is to access. The numbers are astounding. 9 out of 10 teenage boys view pornography regularly. that is scary. The man giving the presentation talked about a new website available called fight the new drug. there were a lot of great videos. It was such a great meeting for sure.

I hope all is well for you back home. Can you believe that nat is almost done with her mission. that is crazy. time is flying by so fast. 
I love you all, I am praying for you and i hope you can feel it. I know that we are in this family for a reason and i wouldn`t want to be in another one. I love each one of you so much and have learned so much from your example.. I am proud to be a Cameron

Wow, what a whirlwind of a week.
My heart is overwhelmed with joy and gratitude and an awareness that God lives. Oh how much I love Him. So Wednesday, Soeur Henson and I took our RER to Paris for the last time together. What a bitter sweet feeling. It was really hard to see her go, but I was so happy for her and the return she had with her family. She is an absolutely incredible person and I miss her so much. But I'm so excited for all the adventures that await us AM aka after mission. I met Soeur Waite and she is fun! She is from Idaho Falls and we are having so much fun together.
This week I set my transfer goals for my last transfer. I prayed a lot to know what God wanted me to know. A common theme in my life the past few months has been light. We studied it a lot and found it a lot in beautiful scenes and people. And one of the most beautiful songs ever written describes it best: "Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones and  I will try to fix you" Coldplay gets it.
My last transfer goals are all centered around light. Finding it in others, in myself, from the Savior, and letting the light guide me home. Already, it has been so apprent and real. God's light is real and when we look for it, we'll be surprised at how healing and beautiful it is.
This week we went to our ami Marie-Line's home. She went on vacation last week and had a lot of weird experiences where she was in danger. In all of the situations, she was able to remain calm and felt peace. She told us that she knew it was from God and He was protecting her. She then told us that she'd been reading. She takes her BOM with her to work and she used to hide it face down. But now, she keeps it face up so everyone can see and ask her questions. She was reading a verse this week and had an experience. She was trying to find the verse with us while we were there and she didn't know where it was! We looked and looked and we prayed and right after she found it. It was 1 Nephi 11. She read the first 3 verses and told us that she had written her testimony. She read it to us and we all wept; She told us that she knew for herself that the Book of Mormon was true. That God is real and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the true church. That He has liberated her into becoming someone new. Then she told us that she was ready to be baptized. Oh my goodness. I will never be able to explain the joy I felt. I love that woman so much. And I will never forget her face. We prayed to know when because she was feeling in November. We told her that we knew she was ready, why wait? So she prayed, and she received a confirmation that the 6th of September was right. At church, she was just glowing taking notes and telling everyone that she was going to get baptized. She was just SHINING with light. And it was a testimony to me that He's lighting my way home.
We also saw our other amis Maryse and her husband Serge. We had an incredible rendez-vous where we taught the restoration. The spirit was so thick and they were so into it. We invited them to be baptized as a family and they were so happy and agreed that they wanted to pray and do this all together. Serge came to church and just loved every minute.He was shining as we sang. And lighting up the room.
To me, the light of christ is the illuminating symbol of the Atonement. Its effects are immediate that will gradually expand our horizons to knowing who we are and why we are here. As we become worthy to ask the question why light is such a pivital part of our mortel existence and progression, God will use this very power to illuminate our understanding and show us that He gave us His light to remember. It is a piece of Him.The very God that created us Through light, we come to know the One who created it. . I believe that light was a grand part of our premortal understanding and existence and may be why it was among the first things God created. Light is breathtaking. it is magnificant. And it is healing. At the core of each one of us, we see the same light, captivating the space of existence together as a united race of eternal beings with a potential to create a light of our own.
Through light, we see. Through this light we are led to those who need light.
Through this light, we are liberated. Through this light we are set free.
Through this light we are healed. Through this light we can heal others.
Throuh this light we become more like Him-the true light of the world.
Shining our lights all together to prepare
His path of a triumphant, glorious, and bright return.
I know He lives, and His light is guiding me home. I am enjoying and embracing every last moment that I have of this beautiful journey. He his igniting my bones and fixing me. I love Him.
Thank you for the lights that you are to me. I can feel the warmth of your lights shining all across the world, leading me home.
I love you,
Love Soeur Cameron

Logan August 18, 2014

hey everyone! how are you all doing on this lovely summer morning? I am doing great, i am just loving this area, How neat is this: about every 3rd day someone comes up to me and says
-do you have a brother that served here?
-why yes i do have a brother that served here
-i love justin he talked to me about the priesthood, or he gave me a book of mormon, or he helped me with this problem i had.

sometimes the fruit of our labors are not physically seen for a long time. sometimes years. but i can testify that if we do our best and do what we are asked then miracles will happen. that is for sure. So great job Justin, the members here love you

so dad those tomatoes look great. mom i will pray for wendy for sure. she has always been a great friend. i like her. maybe you can send me her address and i will send a letter or something. 
em i still cant believe that you are working. what do you do? are you a bagger?  that is so weird to me. i refuse to believe it. do you drive to work? do you have a car? are you going to get a scooter? that would be cool. hey mom you should get em a scooter, then i can use it when i get home.

man this week has been a good one. last monday we visited old quebec. i am sure you saw the pictures. it was super super fun. man it is like getting into the dolorian and starting up the flux capacitor and taking that sucker back in time. we got some pain chocolat and visited a really old cathedral. 

this week we visited a former investigator named roger. he saw the missionaries a long time ago. we were getting to know him and he told us he has 19 brothers and sisters. can you imagine? that is quite a common tale here is quebec. back in the day the catholic church controlled everything. they told the members that they would go to hell if they did not keep having children. so there a a lot of families with tons of kids. Roger was super nice though. he doesn't really talk to his family much. all of his siblings live in a small town together and he got sick of the drama so he left. I really think that he will progress. we are going to ask him about baptism this week when we see him. 

we also saw Frere Leger. he is a less active member in our branch that is struggling with depression. i feel really bad for him. we have been trying to cheer him up. we were able to take him teaching with us to visit an investigator named clarence. On our way home from the visit he said, "I dont know why but i love this man, i am just filled with love for clarence, i want him to understand the gospel." I have seen that often on my mission. I have seen that members receive this gift from the spirit, the gift of charity. this is so helpful in the conversion process. My companion noticed that there was a chess board at frere legers house so he asked him if he wanted to play. so they played chess and i played some piano for them. at the end he was so happy and he wanted to help us with missionary work. he gave us a refferal and asked when he could come teaching with us. I felt a little like ammon in the Book of Mormon. we served him and he was changed and in turn he wanted others to feel the love that comes from our Father in Heaven. 

My companion goes home at the end of this transfer, just like natalie but he goes home about 2 weeks before she does. so there is a good chance that i could train derek. how cool would that be?? i would love that. we will see what happens.
it is good to be alive my friends. we have  a great responsibility to invite others to come unto Christ. i know we can fulfill our responsibilities and keep our promises if we are all working together and for the same reasons. I love you all very very much. I am grateful to have your support while i am here. Godspeed

Well hello tout le monde!
WHAT  A WEEK. As you know, I just began my very last transfer of my mission today. Can you believe that? 12. 12 Transfers. 6 weeks is all. This week has been absolutely insane. So much happened and so much has changed!  I got the news on Friday that I will be staying and dying in Paris and I will be follow up training a new missionary! WOOT WOOT! my dream! I am SO SESTATIC. And can't wait. Her name is Soeur Waite and she is the cutest. I am PUMPED.
So this week has been the last week of my dear companion's mission. I have the honor of killing the mission legend SOEUR HENSON also known as one of my best friends. You will be seeing a lot of the dearest Hailee Henson for the next eternity. She went out with a bang and gave every little thing she had. We had an incredible last district meeting and all of our cute elders wore black ties in honor of her and her mourning. We had a thanksgiving feast in gratitude of her and a temple citrus cake was even made. Everyone loves Soeur Henson because Soeur Henson loves everyone. She is absolutely unbelievable. And I will miss her so much.
this week we had an incredible rendez-vous with our ami Hawa. These are her adorable twins. We asked her if we could do anything to help her or serve her and she asked us to play with her girls while she made us lunch. OH LAND. Can you say heaven??? It was the funnest 30 minutes of my life. Come on, just look at them! More pictures to come next week...just sayin. May involve my glasses and my plaque.
So this week, the long awaited musical FIRESIDE happened! And oh boy. It could have possibly been the greatest day of my mission. First off, we arrived a little early before the elders...surprise...and the huge gate was locked. So me and Henson start talking and well, turns out I got a dare, and turns out I may have just jumped the 10 foot gate and played some ball on the other side while we waited. Well turns out the members all saw and got the biggest laugh ever. haha because they didn't think I had it in me. Oh man. I learned a great lesson. Sorry for disgracing the family name mom. I did clear it with a big 10 if it makes you feel better--in a dress even. Turns out I may still have some moves in me.

So the elders in the small little branch of Aulnay in Paris contacted us a month ago to see if we'd be interested in helping them. So we agreed and we've been practicing since! It was me and Soeur Henson, our 2 equipes of elders in Torcy with us, and the elders of Aulnay. We had 9 musical numbers. Ranging from hymns, to Savior Redeemer of My Soul, and My Kindness Shall not depart from Thee, to guitar and tahitian uke solos. I got to play the piano for all of them. It was absolutely beautiful. The spirit was so thick. God arranged the music and He led our fingers and voices. It was so special. The branch is tiny and they participated and singing in the choir we had and providing food and everything. They invited their friends and there were lots of nonmembers there! The theme of the fireside was Our Savior's Love. In between each musical number they had speakers assigned. I had a really incredible experience arranging Our Savior's love. They asked me to write a piano solo for the last number. As I practiced in Torcy, the Spirit led every note. And it was an experience that showed me God knows me. Every time I would play it on our grand piano a stream of light would come through the room and literally touch my face. Warming the whole room. It was miraculous. In our fireside the moment I started playing, a pillar of light came in the room and touched my face bringing us all to tears. President Babin came to support us and spoke after I played. The emotion in the room was so thick and he couldn't speak for awhile. I love that man. He means the world to me. That fireside was one of the most special nights of my mission. Afterwards we got to talk with our Babins. They came to show us their love and support. Absolutely incredible. A woman came up to me after to thank me for the music and told me her husband wasn't a member. But that during that piece, his heart was touched and he felt something. He was standing next to her and just smiled and gave me a humble nod. Oh the love I felt for him. And for God. He lives He lives He lives. I love the people of France.

On the RER home, Elder Pauharo from Tahiti pulled out his uke and we had a little jam session for the people. We drove along the Paris skyline with the most beautiful sunset of my mission.  Then with Elder Lam and Elder Coulombe we taught a family from the UK and India. It was incredible. God is so real and I feel His love.
Yesterday the elders had a baptism in Torcy of a woman from China. She is the cutest thing ever and we were able to help out with the program. It is an incredible moment to watch someone you love enter the water. The silence of the feet hitting the steps in the font ring within your heart. I love her. Elder Lam and Coulombe are by far the greatest elders in the mission. It is so refreshing to have perfect unity in a ville. They take such good care of us. Logan is going to die in Elder Coulombe's home ward in his mission.
I love my mission with all of my heart. And I could not be more excited for the next 6 weeks ahead of me. I am so ready to give every ounce of everything I have to continue to be a consecrated missionary. God is showing me who He is everyday and I feel so honored that I get to share that with everyone around me. I love my mission. And I love you. I hope you all have an incredible week! You are all in my prayers.
Love,
Soeur Cameron

I LOVE STE FOY

hey y'all how are you doing?? man this week has been great. much has happened much indeed. where to begin is a good question, first i shall say, how many years parents? you guys are old. haha i love you very much, thank you for all you do for me. it is great to have support from you. 

so to please mother i will give you a descriptive look on my week, i shall write details of the past week in an organized manner and i hope that it will be received with much pleasure. 

monday: after i finished emails with you i went to visit kelly. kelly is one of my favorite people. He is hilarious. He told me to be safe and careful and to come back to visit when i am not a missionary so that he can take me to the casino, not to wager, but to relax and enjoy myself and watch the master work. haha what a punk. in french we say sale gosse. haha yeah so i told him i would. so maybe next year i will come back to visit kelly
 later that night we went to the forbes family. they are great. i am going to miss little immanuel. he is that crazy little boy who most likely is adhd. he came and gave me a hug right when i left. cute little guy

tuesday: man this day was action packed, it was the last time visiting donna. i will miss her a lot. She has become a great friend to me. we call her Nani because she is our canadian grandmother. before leaving she gave me a small glass elephant. the story behind this elephant is this: every time before we leave her house i put 2 elephants together like they are kissing haha. i dont really know how it started but i did every ttime. then my final time there she gave me one of the elephants. 
so i put him under my bonsai tree. it is a fine place where he shall rest
then we visited the David, and then we went to the valesquez family. all of kids made me a farewell card. it was so nice. i will miss chomedey for sure

wednesday i left laval from montreal, met up with all my favorite missionaries who are going home. then elder fontaine and i took a bus for 3 hours to quebec! it is so great here. i am having such a great time with elder fontaine. he is hilarious. he is helping me a lot with my french. he tells me all of the cool phrases kids say these days. immediately after we got here we went straight to work. we went to a PEC and talked about the needs of the branch. i love it here.

thursday-saturday: we called infinity people and visited a lot of former investigators. we met a guy named clarence marshal. he was originally found by ELDER CAMERON. but i am not sure it is justin because it was 2006.  so probably not.

sunday was great. we went to church and i had to give a talk and say the opening prayer. man it has been a while since i have spoke french at church so i was a little rusty but slowly it came back. we then went to the truminio family for lunch. they used to live right by the valesquez family from the chomedey branch. so that was great too. connections all over the place. 

well that is all to report. i love the area i am having fun and i love my companion and the branch. thank you for your prayers. i hope everything is going well for you at home! a bientot mes amis

Well Hello Everyone!

First off, I have to give my parents a shout out. Happy Anniversary. Hope you know how much i love you and how grateful i am for all that you've done.
So glad that everyone is doing so well. Loge i'm so pumped for your new area. All of my Quebec elders keep saying how happy they are are for you. You are going to LOVE IT. Can't believe that the summer is almost coming to a close. Time is just flying by.
Things here were really great ! We had back to back exchanges. I went with sœur Mackay serving in Blois and we had a blast! We got rained on and had some fun porting. then I went to Nogent to serve with sœur Tupai. She is from Tahiti and is the cutest ever. I love her a lot. We saw a lot of miracles together and laughed our heads off. I love Tahitians. Their french is as beautiful as their hearts. 
We also had band practice this week for our musical fireside we have this Saturday! We're really excited for it. It's going to be so great. I'll be taking pictures so you can all see. I have such a strong testimony of the power of music.
This week we saw so many miracles and i wish i had 3 hours to tell you about them all. We have amis progressing all over the place! It's insane! So many miracles. We felt inspired to call a woman we found in our area book, and we had a rendez-vous with her. We went and immediately became great friends! We invited her to come to church and she came and loved it. She told us she wants to prepare to be baptized! MIRACLE.
So we also randomly met some Americans on the bus this week. There were 2 kids our age with their luggage just getting in from Utah. They are here for a few months. Well Saturday night they were a little lost and this nice girl helped them get home! So they invited her to come to church with them. So she came! And she is SO GOLDEN! SHe loved church and we are going to meet with her this week. AH there are beautiful people everywhere we look. I LOVE IT.
Well mom and dad. I just hope you know how much I love you. And how grateful I am for all you've done for us in these past 29 years. You have done nothing but leave a legacy of love for us. Because of you, we have been able to dream. Because of you We've been able to run with our dreams, and now we're flying. Because of you we know who we are. Because of you we believe in Christ. Because of you we love each other. Because of you we are strong. Because of you we are witnesses. Because of you we are JOYFUL. Because of you we are safe. Because of you we can help. Because of you we are one. Because of you we can be thousands of miles away but closer than ever before. Because of you, I am here. and I am me. Because of you we see. Because of you your legacy will live on.
Elder Osguthorpe said, "When we are sealed in the temple to our eternal mate, we again make covenants that strengthen our will. We can feel the strengthening power of the Atonement every time we enter God’s holy house. It is there that we covenant to consecrate ourselves to the Lord. This is why Elder Maxwell said, “Don’t wait too long to find the altar [and] to place the gift of your wills upon it.”15 He may have been speaking metaphorically, but he was, I believe, also speaking clearly about how we can give our will to God by making and keeping covenants with Him."
Thank you for giving your wills to God. For bringing your will and heart to the alter and fighting so that we could learn the same thing too. You'll never know the impact you've made on thousands of people, all because you gave your wills together. I will be eternally grateful for your examples and the love and support you've given me over these past almost 22 years and especially over these past 18 months. I wish you the best anniversary ever. Dad go take mom and do something great to feel just exactly what you 2 have done. 
I love you all so much! And i'm SO grateful for your support and your prayers. I felt them so strongly this week. They are healing, beautiful experiences. I love you so much! Hope you have a great week.
Love
Soeur Cameron

in october 2013 i left mont saint hilaire to go to chomedey laval. over the past 10 months i have seen many miracles and made many friends, and now is my time to leave to go to Sainte Foy!!!!!!! in quebec city!!!!!!!! i get to go up north to the oldest city in north america!!!!! i am very excited and cannot wait for the pictures i will take. mother you were talking about nature, and lets just say you are in for a treat! Justin knows what i am talking about he served in quebec city for 6 months! justin tell them all about it. show them some pics and then we will see if we have any in common in a couple weeks.
i leave Wednesday for the 3 hour bus ride up to Quebec city with elder fontaine. he is a frenchy! so my french is going to get better too! man so many answered prayers. serisouly. i wanted to go to quebec city so bad and i wanted to go with a francophone so that i can improve my french. and it is basically all french up there so this is going to be great!
my comps foot is doing a lot better. he can put his shoe on now. we are still unsure of what really happened and probably will never know. 

we had a pretty good week. it was kind of slower and i am still shocked that i am going to quebec city so i can't really remember what happened but i do remember a couple things. 

i sent a few photos home already. one was with me and a little red head. that is ryan. he is one of my favorite members in quebec. he is going to serve a mission one day. he is a recent convert of about 2 years and he has progressed so much. he passes the sacrament every week and he will be a great missionary. i told him that i am going to pick him up from the air port when he flies to utah for the mtc.

it was sad to say good-bye to all my friends. i still have more goodbyes to do. i said goodbye to all those crazy chomedey kids. they are so funny. 

well there is much to do on this pday so i can prepare to leave but i wish to tell you about this scripture i read this morning 

alma 22:15-16
what do we need to do to receive exaltation? follow the gospel of Jesus Christ. that is all we must do. 
read it and ponder about the steps of the Gospel.
i will do the same
i love you all very very much and can't wait for next weeks email to show you la ville de québec. 
love elder cameron








 

Natalie August 4, 2014

Hey everyone!

Can't believe another week has come and gone. What a crazy one it was. My heart is full and I touched Heaven a lot this week. I know that God lives and this gospel is real.
Ok so first, I should catch you up on our ami Marie-Line. What a beautiful beautiful woman. We have been teaching her since I got here and she is the most golden person I've met on my mission. this week we went to her home and she told us she wanted to share her studies with us. She had come across a few verses in the BOM on her own and linked them with a hymn she'd fumbled across, oh and also looked up the MOTAB version of it on lds.org so she could learn how to sing it. This woman is someone special. And I can feel it everytime i'm with her. She came to church yesterday and was just glowing. She loves this gospel and has decided that she wants to get baptized. She understands the importance of this decision and wants to be ready and spiritual prepared to make that commitment. She is a miracle.
Wednesday I accomplished one of my miracles of my mission. I got to go on an exchange with one of my best friends...SOEUR HILTON! We were in the MTC together and one of my dreams was to serve with her. We never got to serve a transfer together, so God gave us 24 hours. And they were absoultely beautiful. We found 2 new amis, taught lessons on the street, contacted a referral from the church, and loved every second of it! We found girls our age and prayed with them telling them God loved them. We had incredible studies talking about the 4th missionary and giving our wills to God. It was beautiful and incredible. I love Soeur Lorraine Hilton. She is a beautiful person.
Yesterday, Sunday, was the best Sunday of my mission and probably my life. I will never forget it. Sacrament meeting was testimony meeting. It was my dream testimony meeting that I've always dreamed of ever since I was a kid. A classy African woman got up with a translator and started speaking in english. She is from London and came for a wedding. She got up and testified of the beautiful feelings she felt in her heart while staying in Torcy that the church is true everywhere we go.  Then, a beautiful woman got up from Peru. She has become one of my bosom friends, and we can't even say hello to each other. She speaks spanish. I speak english and french. But we laugh and communicate through our eyes and smiles. We have become great friends because I know we were dear friends once before and I am commited to learn spanish for her! I have started from the basics, but I'm commited to learn and talk with her! She testified while her husband, a recent convert, translated, that God lives. He lives in all of us and throughout all the world. When she walked back to her seat, she put her hand on my shoulder and winked, and she didn't even have to say a word. Then we had a chinese woman get up and spoke chinese. The Chinese elders had their ami there and she was amazed! Then a pourtugese man and voilà les americannes. Another woman from London bore her testimony while had a translator, and her best friend spoke for her. It was incredible.

I have never felt so much combined LOVE in a room before. It was absolutely breath taking. Our ami marie-line said she thought she was going to burst with joy. Then a man from London got up. He said he didn't want a translator. In his accent he said that, "He didn't need one. Because Although there is a barrier from our languages, there is no barrier of the Spirit. We can all feel what we're saying, because It's God's language. His language is LOVE. It is a privilidge to be a Mormon. And to have a family wherever you go in the world."
After sacrament meeting our cute friend Delphine got set apart to go on her mission. Everyone stayed to support her. She is a recent convert and has no support from her family. She bore her testimony and said that this ward was her family. Our ami Marie-Line stayed and she saw that we were crying. It was a very full circle moment. Because we knew that Delphine had absolutely no idea what she was getting herself into. She had no idea the amount of joy and love she was about to be a part of. Marie-Line turned to us and said, "I get it now mes soeurs". oh the joy.
I know and testify that God's language is LOVE. We communicate as His children best when we communicate feelings of love to others. It speaks so much louder than words. One of my dear friends shared a quote with me that changed my life: "If we can be interested in others even if they are not interested in us, we will find ourselves under a freer sky and in a street full of splendid strangers" GK Chesterson. Oh how true this is.
"We are the world. We are the children. We are the hope that makes a brighter day so let's start living. " A little Michael Jackson throwndown. I know that we can make a difference. We NEED to make a difference. The time has come to not just believe the gospel, but to live it. To SHARE it and to embrace it. to be PROUD to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and let everyone know it through God's language. Love. It all starts with love.  I love that. The more you love, the larger your family becomes. Then you realize that they are already your family and you are just strengthening ancient bonds. That is eternal. And that is beautiful. And then, our skys are freer and our streets are full of splendid familiar faces--not strangers.
I love you all so much! And i'm praying for you. I hope you know how much of an affect you make on me and my life. I am so grateful for you and all you do for me.

Love,
Soeur Cameron
