Elder Williams Update

Serving others, that's truly doing the Lord's work:


Elder Williams says they go to a Senior Citizen's home in Frederick, MD each Friday to visit with the people there. This man is 101 years old!

Some of the people Elder Williams and Elder Nelson taught decided to be baptized. Elder Williams was blessed to have actually baptized them.

We tend to get pictures of his adventures on P-day (Preparation Day) which is on Mondays. He loves the outdoors!




Sometimes his love for the outdoors carries over...here he is climbing a branch of a tree that they stuck into the ground...




...and this is the result you and I and any other sensible person would have expected! There's an object lesson there somewhere and I will figure it out.


Stalking the wild beasts of the city!

We are so grateful for Lance's service! He has been in the Maryland Baltimore Mission since Nov 2007. Wow almost a year already. Sometimes it seems to be dragging, but lately it seems to be flying by. I guess it takes me back to my service in Florida in the early 80's and I realize all that you want to do and never seem to have enough time. His service is blessing our lives and I'm sure his life and the lives of those he meets!
