Hey Family!
Yup, it was a good week here. Yes, I did hear about the earth quake in Haiti. I heard the states sent a ton of money for repairs and food. Yep that is true they need to be ready, if you’re not prepared you are wicked...jk ha-ha. Well thank you for answering those questions in my last letter, I feel better. Well it has been a very good week. My companion and I are awesome now we don’t have hardly any problems.
I also had some awesome spiritual experiences this week.
1. My companion and I were trying to find a recent convert who never goes to church and is never home. So when we got to his house his mother was there and she is not a member, so of course she didn’t answer the door when she saw who we were. I’m standing out in the hot sun trying to talk to her and she was just ignoring me….so then I saw this fairly old man sitting on his front porch making a net of some sort. We walked over to talk to him and he was a really nice guy. I was just talking to him making conversation trying to get him to have confidence in us. (cuz here missionaries are just like robots, they say their thing and then leave…while I at least try to get to know the person, understand their needs, their circumstance, find out about their religious background.
He said he goes to a church called “Pentecostal” which I really don’t know too much about. But he started asking questions about Joseph Smith and things like that. I was explaining it all and he seemed interested but in the end, he wasn’t. So I said, “Well, if there is anything you want us to do to help you out we are here for you” and he’s said “I know” then he just paused like as if he was thinking about something. Then he said “I guess we will really know the truth in the last days” and I said “yes we will”. His eyes start feeling up with tears and then he looks at me and tells me “thank you, because no one does what you missionaries do” (I wanted to cry to) that hit me so hard.
After we left I kept thinking about what he said and my companion was totally zoned out that whole time so when I asked him how he felt when the old man was talking to us, he had no idea what I was talking about. I really want to talk the man again and we always pass by his house, and whenever we do I ask his how he is doing and if he needs anything but he always says no. ha-ha
2. My other experience was this: We have another family who are recent converts named Leopoldo and Janeth (there an elderly couple) and a couple of weeks before we were teaching their son Antonio and we left a Book of Mormon and told him to read it and pray to know if its truth before we come back the next visit. When we returned the next week and talk with him and I asked him if he read the Book of Mormon. He said he did. Then I asked if he prayed. He said he did. Then I asked, “Did you receive an answer?” He said he felt some kind of sensation in his heart that he never felt before. I told him that’s the spirit testifying of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.
Then we asked him if he had questions before we started to teach. And he asked what the “war in heaven” was and I was like whooooooa….where did you hear about that? He’s said I read it in this book and then he shows me the book and it was the new Principles of the Gospel that all the members got for the year. He had read half the book and wanted to know about the Doctrine and Covenants and all this stuff. (Usually we don’t explain the Gospel Principles until after the person is a member but I felt that it would be right if I did) After we taught the discussion I asked him “Do you believe what I told you is true” and he is yes.
Then I start talking to him about baptism and then ask him if he wanted to be baptized and he told me no… So with a couple of questions I found out he knows what he read is true but he doesn’t want to leave his current church. Then I asked him, “What do you look for in a church and after many answers he said “salvation”. I told him with salvation there are many sacrifices that we need to make in order to obtain it. Leaving his church would be one of them. I told him to pray about it and when we come back the next visit to tell us what he felt. Well we went back and when he saw us coming he ran away. Then his mother told us that he doesn’t want to continue lessons with us….I felt horrible, the rest of that night I felt horrible. He knew it was true HE RECEIVED AN ANSWER, but doesn’t want to believe it.
I had more experiences but I don’t have enough time to write all of them at this time. We only get one hour and I still have to write a letter to the president tell him how I’m doing and send my numbers for the week. I have it all written in my journal. It has been a really good week. We had one baptism “Antonio” and we will try to get another one for this week “Domingo”.
I love you all and thank you for everything!

Baptism!
Hello Family!
That is so weird, that it is rainy and cold in Arizona, cause here it is HOT AND HUMID today ha-ha. Hey I want to put this part in before I forget. You don’t have any photos on the blog spot for people to see, and I sent a lot, please post them for me.
Yeah, lucky me, I got (had) another bot fly, but I put Vaseline over it because duct tape doesn’t exist here, so it smothered it and then it came to the surface to get air and I squeezed it out. IT IS SO GROSS! No the Latinos don’t get them, I think they like the American bodies more (or at least mine, none of the other American missionaries have had them either) :(
Wow that will be awesome to have five new shirts! THANK YOU! Um…something else you can send…..well I am down two four pants…. I’m sorry when I have an area were they at least have decent clothes they ship me off to another place so I don’t have time to go shopping for clothes. Where I am at now, there is no place to find pants or shirts in my size. You are sending the box at the right time. Thanks!
The baptism that we had this week was only for Nora. The rest fell through so we are going to try to get them baptized next week. We do the baptism in another area called Waspan here in Nicaragua (it’s the church house of my district leaders) They also had baptisms the same day so it was really good.
We attend church just a couple of block from our house. The church we attend does not have a font. It is actually a really cool church. It’s small but pretty. For the baptism day we started at 8:00 am so we wake up at 5:00 am to gather people to come to the church in the morning. AND THE WATER IN THE SHOWER HERE IS SO COLD IN THE MORNING WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA….I HATE TAKING SHOWERS IN ICE COLD WATER!!! Ha-Ha
Yeah I got to admit opening up an area is hard work but cool at the same time plus I have a new companion who also doesn’t know the area. This area and church is the most organized of all the churches in Nic I have gone to. They all know what they are supposed to do to fulfill their callings and they help us out as missionaries A TON! It is a ward with a Bishop and 2nd counselor (we don’t have a first counselor) and there are 6 return missionaries here, so they know their stuff ha-ha.
How was my companion…………ha-ha oooooh….he´s good ;)
He loves to blame everything on me and say everything is my fault. I am pretty much training him because he hardly knows the lessons. So when we teach, after I’m done talking I bare my testimony and look at him (to give him the sign to start talking) and he just sits there and raises his eye brows at me (which means I wasn’t listening, what am I suppose to do) He doesn’t listen to me or the investigator that were teaching. (Afterwards he whines and complains saying I didn’t let him talk and that I just talked the whole time) He just sits their chews nails, puts his feet up on the investigators table and is just a rude, inconsiderate little guy….but…I still love him (or trying to anyway).
I am reading a lot about charity…and studying a lot of the life of Jesus Christ, and how charity is the pure love of Christ. And how people beat him, whipped him, spit on him, and he suffered them…..I thought “Man what am I whining about, compared to Christ, Joseph Smith or the apostle Paul, I know I can put up with my companions crap. The only part that is sad and the hardest for me…IS HE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT ANYTHING OR ANYONE his is the most inconsiderate fella I have met. When we teach I try to teach and actually showing that I care for the person. He told me he teaches so our numbers don’t look bad and so he doesn’t get yelled at by our leaders. When he told me that…..I had to count to 10.
I started to question him then and asked “Why are you here?” and he told me “Cause I have to be here” and I asked “What are your desires?” he told me “To baptize.” and then I asked “What else?” (Silence…..) Then I said “That’s the thing, if you want to baptize you’ve got to show the people you love them, you whine about them being so hard hearted… not wanting to listen to you.” Then I said, “Why should they even listen to you?” (Silence) Then I told him, “They don’t need to have a reason to listen to you, if all your going to do is invite them to church (because you feel you have to), teach them (because you feel you have to), baptize them (because you feel you have to). Don’t do it because people tell you to do it, but do it because you love them, care for them, want to help them. He got mad….shut down…quit. But that was the only way I know how to explain it to him. ;o
That was yesterday after teaching, and when we got back to the house he didn’t want to plan for the following day cause he was too tired. UGH?!?!..I WANT A COMPANION THAT WANTS TO SERVE LIKE HE’S SUPPOSE TOO! Ha-ha…..don’t get mad at me…I’m learning too!
I’m so happy that all of you are happy. I CANT WAIT TO GO GET BACK AND TALK ABOUT THE GOSPEL WITH DAD!!! I LOVE THE GOSPEL AND I LOVE LEARNING IT!!! Last night and the night before and before and before….I was up late reading gospel principles. I have a huge library list of books I want to read when I get back home that we can’t read here!!!
You can do it Carly! I have read the Book of Mormon 3 times in English and 1 time in Spanish here on my mission and now I’m studying every verse and references… IT IS SO COOOOOL!! HAHA AND GUESS WHAT…..I HAVE 11 MONTHS IN THE MISSION FIELD, WOW!!!!
I love you and will work hard for all of you!

Happy Monday!
Hello family!
It sounds like everyone is good and happy! I’m doing well...ha-ha that’s not completely true! I got another Bot Fly in my other leg (oh look twins!) I managed to kill it and now it’s healing up well and the doctor said today that I will live (sigh…) It’s just another trial and something to learn from.
BUT MY HEALTH AS OF NOW IS FINE! NOTHING IS WRONG!!!
One Christ like attribute that I am learning and practiced this past week was my patience. This new companion that I have needs a lot of patience. He gets mad, depressed, discouraged pretty easy, but when he works he does a good job. He likes to blame everything on me, and says I talk too much when he doesn’t talk at all. He is an only child and before the mission he said he just played video games and soccer...didn’t work...didn’t study…?
But all in all he’s a good guy that’s just learning how to be a missionary. I think of all the little things that happen over time that we get mad at, they are usually stupid. If we get mad we can’t have the spirit and if we can’t have the spirit, we can’t work and if we can’t work we are just wasting time. I decided to be a lot more pro active, so when he gives me crap I just ignore him and when he doesn’t work, I work harder.
I reached all of my goals and accomplished all I wanted to do this week (as far as missionary work) so I feel awesome with myself. I didn’t have any problems with temptations, nothing.
Last night we came back to the house early, so my companion could use the bathroom. He was upset about something, I asked him but he wouldn’t tell me. I was sitting on my bed waiting for him, and I was thinking about all the stuff I wanted to accomplish that day (we set as goals) that we weren’t even close to achieving. It was already 7:00 pm and we stop working at 9:00 pm. I thought to myself, we still have two hours to complete our daily goals that we weren’t even close to achieving them. When my companion came back out of the bathroom, he was all negative about not having enough time to complete our goals. I was thinking to myself, "I have a freaking worm living in my leg that hurts just to walk, I have a head ache and a sore throat and I want to go to sleep, but not once have I complained this whole week". So I said, "Look if you want to have a crappy day, and think you’re going to have a crappy day, then you’re going to meet crappy people who are going to do crappy stuff and you will end up having a crappy attitude about the mission and life. But if you want to have a good day you’re going to have a good day, so stop complaining and make the difference."
He was mad after I said that but he understood. So when we left our apartment for the last two hours of the day I worked my butt off to contacted and talk with every person and achieved my goals. But the thing that I had to show patience with was my companion getting prideful and started comparing what we accomplished that day against what the other elders did and was kind of rubbing it their faces. (I guess it bothered me that we could have accomplished even more if he had tried to do his part) So I told him " Elder you have to be more humble and give an account of thanks to Heavenly Father, cause frankly....you didn’t do it yourself!” Ha-ha
Yeah, so now we kind of got a weird attitude to one another but I still treat him nicely. I’m trying to do more things in a more positive way and it’s working well for me and hopefully my companion will do the same and we will accomplish a lot more together.
Right now we have 2 baptism dates planned for this week
January 16
Nora
Evenor
Antonio
January 23rd
Domingo
Cliford
Samantha
Marta
As of now all them are positive and Hno. Domingo is just an awesome guy! He knows so much from the Bible he is practically a Mormon, just not baptized. We gave him the Book of Mormon and the first lesson and he accepted baptism. I have great hopes for this guy.
Still don’t have pictures of my new area…sorry, I will try to get some soon. Just got the one of my other Bot Fly leg.
Love you and thank you for everything. Be careful Kade! Carver and his family I want you all in one piece still by the time I get back. Love you mom and dad and everyone that reads this letter.

I Am Back In Managua!
Hello Family!
Interesting New Year but I am safe, happy and healthy. It sounds like you guys had a nice boring New Year compared to here. It was super crazy, there were a ton of fireworks, fire crackers, anything that explodes. I tried to sleep at 10:30 p.m. but at 11:30 p.m. they lit off a ton of fire crackers and woke me up so I didn’t sleep much that night.
New news: I will be getting a new mission president in May. I HAD CHANGES last Wednesday. And now I am in Managua again, in a zone called Bello Horizante, and my area is called Las Mercedes. IT IS AWESOME!!! I LOVE IT HERE! We eat with a family that is so cool! The members help out a ton and I got a new companion.
My companion is Elder Sandoval, he is from Guatemala and is super cool! He was in my old zone in Jinotepe but now we both changed areas and he is my companion! I didn’t have time to take pics of my new area, here it’s pretty dangerous as far as the people…but I love it!
After the New Year partying was over we have recommitted the members to come closer to Christ and live better lives. We have big plans for this area. This area has been closed down for a year and we are here to re-opened it. All the members here are still awesome, and they actually have a ward mission goal! Right now I’m living with my zone leaders until we find a house. My zone leaders are Elder Rodriguez (who also was my last zone leader in Jinotepe) and Elder Baker.
I love to teach too. I taught the gospel principles class here on Sunday, but it was a little different. We found 3 new investigators and invited them to church and 2 of them were Jehovah Witnesses so they were super confused. One visitor was scared of the thought of going to heaven, so we will help them understand that heaven is the ¨good place¨ and hell is the ¨bad place¨. I’m not really sure what Jehovah Witnesses believe but I sure was confused about their comments.
So I have some good news and I have some bad news……I got my big suitcase back from Puerto Cabezas at changes last week (that’s the good news) and I was going through my items in my suitcase and for the second time in my mission things were taken out of my suitcase! (that’s the bad news) I lost 2 brand new never been opened white shirts, 3 t-shirts and 2 of my gym shorts. Stinking thieves….I was kind of mad but then I thought “It’s only a trial GET OVER IT, LEARN FROM IT, AND MOVE ON”. Please send replacements!
I read that you were worried about me dad, don’t worry I’m fine. I’m loving what I’m doing and as long as I’m being obedient and doing what I’m suppose to the Lord will protect me. Well I’m in a new area, with a new companion, with a new year. I’m going to make miracles happen here. Ether 12:12 as long as I have the faith.
This is for Grandma Eliason…Grandma I LOVE YOU! Thank you for your letters that you always send me I’m sorry I haven’t written back… I don’t have time, but thank you for everything! I love you all and thank you for everything sounds like everyone I doing well. I would like to hear from you Carver and family. I hope all is well and happy.
