I have my first baptism!

Hey mom!!

So I don´t think I´ll be able to send a fam letter home this week. Sorry. This cyber is really crappy. The keyboard barely works...

Ok! So I have my first baptism this week, but I don´t count it. She´s 11 and she had most of the lessons taught to her in Danli by other missionaries. But it goes on my record as my first. She´s a doll though. Her dad reminds me of Wyatt Argyle, my roommate from Dixie. But anyway. Other than her, we challenged two people this week, one said yes and one said no. So we´ll see how this plays out. We´re teaching this guy in 10 minutes named Fabricio. He´s super positive and he plays for the soccer team Olympia! That´s bigger than the NFL here! He also played for a Major League Soccer team in the States for a while too.

So really quick I´ll give you an update on the living quarters. We live on the second floor of a little apartment. We wash all our clothes by hand in something called a pila. We don´t have hot water in the shower, we actually have extremely cold water. So showering isn´t too fun. We have fleas in our beds and we get bit like crazy at night. But we stripped our beds and sprayed them down pretty good. We have a roof and can see the temple across the valle from it! I´ll try to take all those pictures next week. So tell Scott this part. He wanted to know about the food and I forgot to send it to him. Every morning we eat beans and eggs in a roll with mantequilla. But tell him mantequilla isn´t butter. It´s almost like sour cream. It´s a Honduran thing. And then we usually eat beans, eggs, and fried platanos for dinner. And if we´re lucky, some kind of meat.But anyway! We have to leave now! I love you so much and I´m so sorry for not writing earlier!!

Love, Elder Carter
