Cameron's farewell was so amazing!  He really wanted the dinner afterwards at our house and wanted all those he loved to come and enjoy and mingle.  We worked hard in the yard, put up tents, decorated with Brazilian flags, and made arrangements for food.  Cameron thought and prayed about his talk for a while but didn't start the actual writing until the Friday prior to August 14th.  Cameron talked on the message of the restoration and his faith and testimony were definitely felt.  Halle, Courtney Small, and Ashtyn Craynor sang "An Instrument in His Hands" accompanied by Sister Bailey.  Sean Baker and Cameron Green also spoke.  There were so many people there to support Cameron.  The chapel was full clear back to the stage in the gym. We were told there were 469 people there that day. Cameron is a well liked boy but all those people there, were also those who were part of the village that helped to raise such a fine young man.  This day couldn't have been any better and so many friends and family made an effort to be there to support Cameron on this special day. It ended with lots of food and visiting at home after. We turned the cut wheat field into a parking lot and had a good old country celebration!
