Sorry

Hey Reedo fans!
Sorry I've been busy. Reed is doing great. He doesn't really respond to what I email him about, but goes on and on about the great Lord's work he is doing. I would say it is the most focused he has ever been. He always sounds so excited about all the investigators and trying to be a good Zone Leader. See for yourself!

Hey ya'll, So, this week has been the craziest week yet and we hardly got to do any real missionary work. Elder Wood and I have been slaving over what to do for our Zone Taining and we want it to be something different and something that will keep them excited through the whole transfer. We think that we finally got something that will do the job. It will be focused on gaining the trust of the members and helping them help us in the missionary work. I am really excited to see how it will all unfold and the missionaries have to go for it too or there is just no reason to do it. We think that they will really like though because they all seem to want to improve how much the wards are involved. As for the people that we are working with right now, there are only a few updates. First, the baptismal date for Pamela Washington is still a go. She is really excited about it and she is already making some friends in the ward. I am actually really surprized because the first time I met with her she didn't seem to be very interested in the gospel, but she did in the welfare. It seems like the opposite now. It is really cool to see. I don't really know what is going on with Marty Molpus. This last Sunday we had his fellowshipper call him and see if he needed a ride to church, and he said that he couldn't come because he had a cold. This is now the third week that he hasn't come to church for one reason or another. We tried to contact him also Sunday after church to see how he was and he didn't answer. We did pick up a new investigator that we talked to when Marty didn't answer the door. Maybe that was the reason we went to see him. We have an appointment with him (Edgar) this Saturday. I hope that goes through. Elder Wood and I are getting along really well. We agree on a lot of different things and so that makes it fun to do this work. We are both really energietic and very sarcastic so I don't know how good of a combination that is when we are around other missionaries. :) It is really fun, though. Hopefully some of the enthusiasm will transfer to the missionaries in the Zone. I really like how things are going and I am looking forward to spending time out doing work with Elder Wood. It seems like everything is going great back home and I hope to here from you next week! Love,Elder Carter
