The Work Begins...

(picture of Elder Wilkerson with Halle, the night he was set apart to be a missionary)

We got a letter from Elder Wilkerson this past week. Its always good to hear from our missionary. He is in full swing of attending classes for 15 hours and learning the language. He said that he isn't getting the language but he can pray and bear his testimony in Spanish (in other words...he IS MAKING progress, just not as quickly as he might like). He said his companion is almost as tall as him and they get along pretty good. He is busy and seems to be doing well. His Pday is on Tuesday's, so we anxiously await for Tuesday to come so we can get an email from him. I am hoping to get him to take some pictures so we can see him at work, as well as some pictures of him and his companion, but for now...we just have to visualize what he must look like as a "full blown Missionary". At this point he is scheduled to leave the MTC on November 11th, but we will just wait and see if his Visa comes etc... If you want to write him a letter you can send it to the addresses below. He said that he LOVES mail. He loves to hear from family and friends. I don't know how many letters he will get written back, he is so busy and has very little time to write....but encouraging words from those who love him are what he looks forward to.

His address is:

Elder Cameron M. Wilkerson, NOV11 MEX-MEXE, 2023 N. 900 E. Unit 835, Provo UTAH 84602. 

This is the address if you want to send something directily to the MTC and then you can also go to dearelder.com and put in the information they ask for from his address and write him a letter. If its written and sent before noon, he will get it that day, otherwise he will get it the next day. Also, here is his email address: cameron.wilkerson@myldsmail.net He gets to check his email on Tuesdays as thats when his PDay is.
