Thank you!!! The package was well received! The Chex mix especially. I finished the book the next day. I'll probably send a package home pretty soon. Lunch with Susan was awesome. I missed her. Hopefully we'll get together a few more times before I go home. Easter was good. Saturday we had a ward breakfast (with a bunch of primary kids acting like sharks at a feeding frenzy, running for eggs) Then There was a wedding we went and helped out with, and finally the stake talent show. That was pretty good. 
My comp and I are both being transfered tomorrow. I'm going to miss some of the people in the ward. I'll let you know where I end up. Change is good. Trevor's date was weird huh? That's too bad. It happens. My date's have been kinda weird lately too. Just last week, Savannah said she loved me, then she hit me and ran away. 4 year olds. Typical.
Yeah, I hear that you guys got a ton of moisture this year. awesome. Love you all, PEACE! -Elder Williams

Well, Kyle's farewell, that's crazy. He's written me a few times. Make sure I get his address please. :) That crazy kid is going to one of the places I wanted to go....
Yup, Six months this wednesday!! YEAH! It's tradtition for you to burn a tie on your 6th birthday. So I'm going to hit up a thrift store and get a nasty one for like a dollar because I like all the ties I have.
  Package? Surprise? Those are the words I like to hear! That and "I prayed and I know that this is the path God wants me to take." But packages happen more often than that.
Tell Gma Hi, I need to write her. I also need to write a lot of other people. but I'm waiting until next week to see if I get transfered. I thought I was for sure leaving but now I don't know.
        I don't think leadership is coming anytime soon. I'm not ready for it.
 Yeah! Chuck is getting stuff done. He still hasn't read and prayed about stuff, but I think he will. According to him, God is sending him pretty-not-so-subtle hints.
So mothers day is in a couple weeks, Does callie have a Skype? Because if I don't get transfered we could skype instead of just talk on the phone. That would be cool. She was the only one I could think of that might have it. Camerons family does, but they will probably be talking to Cam. Just a thought.

Hey, So this weekend was pretty awesome. Brian got baptized. (Number 2 for my mission) and then I got to confirm him Yesterday. Pretty awesome stuff. His friend Jeremy dunked him and then gave him the priesthood. He is prepping for his mish, so this was really cool for him. (The way it works is if you taught the person that got baptized, it counts as one of yours. Even if you didn't do the actual dunking. ) So we had President interviews last week and I was in there for about 20 minutes, I asked him one question, "I've read the missionary library and the BoM and I'm almost done with the New testement, What do I read next?" The he just talked to me about random stuff for 15 minutes.  Also, it is the Easter Season and it is the time for JELLY BEANS! the Starburst ones please! I love those. Back to pres interviews, My companion was in there for an hour! When he came out he said that he was talking me up. NO! I don't want leadership. (In this mission you would think that leadership would bring you respect, but no. It does the opposite. As soon as you become District leader, Zone Leader, or AP, everyone hates you. Regardless of who you are.) So if Hudak talked me up.... I might go DL. which would suck. But, I've only been out 5 months, so it's highly unlikely that will happen.
I'm glad you have a stronger testimony of tithing and the Atonement. That's awesome. That testimony can carry you through anything that you let it. I love you and hope that the blessings keep coming. -Elder Williams

 (Betty is Amanda's Grandma. She got baptized in November. and then Amanda in Feb. Before someone gets baptized they have to get the basic 4 lessons. then after they are baptized they get the first 4 plus number 5. So we were giving them those. I'm over there quite a bit because they're so awesome, they love me) Anyway, I thought the letter was clever too.
 Conference was good. My fav was probably Oaks on Desire. We went to a couple members houses and Investigators. Brian loved it.
Everything is pretty much the same as last week except we have 2 new people to teach. We are meetin with them tuesday so I'll let youknow how that goes.
LOve you tons!!! - Elder WIlliams
