how are you all doing!? I am doing just fine, just
fine indeed. How cold did it get? i am just so nervous for the summer,
we may have no water!
I am glad you are all done with jury
duty my mommy. This is pleasing. It is a darn shame that these people
had to disobey. they are going to be so sad in the prison. but that is
the way that it must be i guess.
there is
going to be another member of the cameron family soon. this is also
pleasing. Any votes for future cameron names? i think the child will be a
boy, and he shall be called, Logan, or frederic, or perhaps orvil, i
like edmund too. there you go just!
this week
was a great one. you know i have been doing a lot of studying on charity
because sometimes there are some missionaries that i dont get a long
with, and so elder hattaway and myself (dont worry it is not him. we do
get along really well together) struggle loving these other
missionaries. so i am trying to look at them as God looks at them. I
have learned a lot about my relationship with him. It is amazing how
much he cares for us. He is always there, and He sends us people or
scriputres or anything really to tell us just that.
One
thing that i have come to understand a little bit more on my mission is
Agency. it may seem like a simple thing to understand, when we think
that it is just the ability to choose right or wrong. but there is so
much more that comes with it. we must accept every consequence that
comes with our agency and the agency of others, because that is part of
mortality. Now if we choose to give our agency to God then we receive
freedom in return. the opposite would be death and captivity by giving
our agency to the devil. Something that i have realized is that being a
missionary requires exact obedience, not just because we need the
spirit, but people have to see in us, the representatives of the church,
what real freedom is like. Then with the whisperings that come from the
Holy Ghost with testify of the validity of the message of the
Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
So
for the rest of my mission i want to be that kind of example, that when
people look at the way i live my life they will be able to see freedom,
through obedience to the commandments of Christ.
We
had Zone conference this week. It was great. President taught us about
working with ward council. True it was to help us right now but i think
that the training was more focused on preparing us for the future
councils that we will be a part of in our home wards. I got some really
good ideas for our current ward and we are going to work hard to see
that some things happen.
Life is good as a
missionary. I have found a new talent for making crepes. it is more of
an obsession at this point. we have them at least 2 times a week. they
are quick easy, and i feel sophisticated while eating and preparing
them. haha
my family, Godspeed. I love you all
very very much. I pray for each one of you by name every day that you
may have a missionary opportunity. I hope you each have the chance to
testify of what we know to be true often. I will be forever grateful for
the sacrifices you have all made to help me be where i am today. I love
being a missionary. I love speaking french. and i love the Gospel and
the freedom it gives me.
Elder cameron
