Dear Mom and Dad,
     So this week has been a pretty good week so far.  We have taught a lot of lessons and are finding a few new investigators.  Well me and my companion are doing pretty well.  We just had it snow a few days ago and so now the long dark winter begins.  It really is dark.  The sun sets at like 3 o'clock.  At least that is not until December.  So anyway I am going to get some new gloves today and hopefully so nice warm socks.  This week we helped put in a window in for some less active members which was pretty interesting.  Also the my english lessons which I teach at the church are going pretty well.  Me and Elder Neuberger (an elder in my district) switch between teaching the high level english and the low level english classes.  SO this saturday we had this old man come into our class.  He expressed is interest in learning English and said he wanted to sit in the high level class.  But he mistakenly sat in the low level class which I happened to be teaching that day.  At first I was grateful because both me and Elder Neuberger thought that he was just an old man that thought he was pretty good at English, but when he started talking I was completely taken by surprise.  He spoke really good english and I was in shock for the first 5 minutes.  SO that was interesting.  Other than that there really wasn't that much else this week.  So Odmaa is doing really well in the church and is learning and growing in it sooo much.  She takes her calling so seriously which is a door greeter and she does really well.  Anyway it is so wonderful to see somebody grow through the gospel.  So my other english classes are doing pretty well so far and so far it seems like I will be able to stay in the country.  Or at least everybody is really positive about it.  It seems like one of the real anti mormon guys was just switched to a different department or something like that so hopefully everything should work out just fine.  Well life here is good other than the fact that it is getting cold.  also Ulaanbaatar during the winter gets really smoggy which is also no fun.  To be honest it is the worst smog I have ever seen.  but right now it isn't too bad.  Apparently this coming winter is supposed to the colder than the past several years but Mongolians said that last year too.  It seems to always be the rumors before a winter.  The Mongolians are a very supersticious people some time and so this kind of thing happens a lot.  Well it sounds like you are doing really good Mom.  I hope you get everything done before it snows which to be honest I know you can.  Just don't overwork yourself as I know you do so often.  :)  It sounds like Elder Munday was great to hear from.  Dad, thank you for sharing the scripture with me. It was so great to read and it made me realize that sometimes even when I don't have success that I am still here to warn people whether they accept me or not.  Thank you so much.  Well it sounds like ByU did bad again which isn't really a surprise.  Well hopefully they do good when I'm there.  So anyway I was reading a little out of the old testament today and was really just impressed by the story of Elisha and his servant and how "they that be with us are more than they that be with them."  We always need to remember this and we never need to give up or feel down because of the world.  We just need to remember that God will win.  and if we are obedient we will win with him.  I'm am so grateful for a wonderful family and for the only true church.  I love you and good luck. Love Elder Williams

 

Dear Caelen and Rachel,
     I'm am so glad to hear from you today.  It has been wonderful to be able to see your emails.  So this week has been pretty good for me and we have done a lot of work.  So this week we a great time talking and helping many of the members.  I actually helped put a window in a house of some of our inactive members this week.  It was really cool and it was good to be able to help them.  So the Unur ward is doing pretty well and yesterday we had a great lesson on why we all need to do family history work.  It is possible to do family history work in Mongolia but not a lot of the saints do it so it was really refreshing to hear about it yesterday.  So to be honest apart from that we really didn't do a whole bunch out of the usual this week.  We taught our investigators and we have 3 right now that are very promising.  Two are planning to be baptized and the other one will shortly be given a baptismal date.  So the work here is just moving along fine.  Also all of our new members are doing fine including Odmaa who has got a calling.  She has the calling of a greeter at the door and is doing a wonderful job.  So it has been a great week so far.  So little girls it is so great to hear from you again.  Rachel, it sounds like you are having a great time.  Good luck on your big book.  So also good job on your grades.  that is really impressive and you should be proud of yourself.   I know you are working so hard to get them and let me just say congratulations.  Also make sure to count all the sunflower seeds for me you got.  :)  JK....Rowling.  Can't forget that.  Anyway great job.  So Caelen, good job on your grades too.  it take a lot of effort and hard work to get good grades.  Good job.  By the way, Caelen I can't believe what I heard.  Is my little nanny going to a .....dance?!!!!  What?!!!  Is that even possible?!!!  Are you old enough?!!!!  Stop growing up so quickly.  :)  Anyway good luck and I'm so proud of you.  So I like mark solomon and will not make you ask anything from him but you may tell him that when I get home I plan on beating him really bad in a game of ping-pong.  So good luck and I hope you have a great time.  Also don't worry and be yourself.  (I wish I had taken my own advice a long time ago)  :)  So just relax and have fun at the dance.  SO little girls I love you and good luck in everything you do and just remember,  "those that be with us are more than those that be with them."  Always remember to choose the right and I love you.  Good luck!!  Love Elder Williams

Kristalyn,
Sorry I can't write much but it has been great to hear from you.  So Kristalyn, just remember that the Lord can help you in anything you need.  One thing that we as missionaries always strive to do is be filled with a love for the people we teach.  In Moroni it states that we the way in order to be filled with this love is to beg from god in prayer to give us a portion of that love.  I can testify that if we truly beg and pray that he will give it to us.  So if you are having a hard time with people just pray to god to love them and he will help you overcome all your weaknesses.  Also good luck with your car.  I wanted to drive it but it is okay, I will drive you future car.  :)   Good luck with everything and I love you.  Love Elder Williams
