Trials


Hello family and friends! I hope this week has been a great week for everyone. I guess it's getting pretty hot there in the United States! It's always hot here. Actually it's started to cool down a bit. It rains about every day now, and will continue to rain until September.

I've personally been doing better. I'm on medication that has really been helping me get rid of this bacteria. It's not bad. The worst part is the Pepto 4 times a day. That's really rough. Oh and we haven't found any more scorpians in the house! 

The work has been extremely hard. Remember Alcides? Well, he's had some difficulties pass him. He's had people come into his life and talk bad about the church and just flat out told him lies. Now he doesn't read the Book of Mormon and he didn't attend church yesterday. We actually only had 13 people not counting children at church yesterday. He also is talking about moving 3 hours away in Choluteca. Also an other investigator named Samael doesn't want to put a baptismal date. We doesn't want us to impression him.

We've put a lot of our strength and energy into contacting and other churches have seen this. The churches in this area have really upped the heat against us. They now say that we don't believe in God, so we've had many doors slammed in our face. But that doesn't discourage us! We keep contacting new people every day. Up to this point, we don't have any note-worthy contacts. But we will keep you updated. 

We have been teaching classes of English though. We have a really small class right now, but really expect that to grow. Doing this, i think, will be able to grow our investigator pool.

Well everyone, I'm sorry this is short, but we have to get to work. We've made some big goals for this week, so expect a better email next week full of miracles!! I love you all and always remember to read the Book of Mormon. Honestly, you will find peace, love and purpose in your life with this book.

Love, Elder Carter
