(He’s responding to Vince’s letter and he told Cameron that he was put in as 1st counselor in the Bishopric)

Yeah, Keno Granger told me that you were on his short list of people to be the bishop, close huh! Well congrats, good luck work hard! haha!!! Hey, make sure those missionaries get the help they need to, I can´t believe how ignored they are for the work they do, they need the members to do stuff. If the members aren´t helping they aren’t doing their job. Who is the ward mission leader?

I am fine here, you know the life of a missionary, it´s not always easy, but we walk forward with faith with the Lord and everything works out right, I am fine no worries. This week we managed to bring 10 people to visit the chapel and we are working with a great couple to set a goal for marriage. They are family members of a young woman in the ward here, and are for sure going to get baptized after a few changes, I probably won´t be in this area any more as I´ve been here for almost 5 months. We are also trying to help the sister of one of the members here to be baptized, but her mom needs to sign the paper, I don´t know why she is making her wait, but she´ll get baptized if not now when she turns 19. This week we had family home evening with members and some non member family and friends, it was good and we left a message with them, hopefully we made a difference and we can help some more people join the fold.

Just love each other. I love you and miss you, be happy and don´t frown! Give hugs and trust in the Lord!

Love,
Elder Cameron Dean Summerhays
