105 and still alive!!

HELLO 
I am serving in the most blessed land!! I LOVE this cute little town. Its amazing to be on a bike ridding all over tar nation and back waving to everyone and talking to people on the streets. We live in a little yellow house behind a members house and its adorable. Plus the houses here are the cutest little things and so many people have actual lawns!! the community is so strong and united and humble and genuine and loving and serves to the days end. I am so lucky to be here!! 

Some things about Thatcher
-we have a FAMILY to teach, they are adorable and their story leading them to this town can only be by the hand of God. I can't wait to tell you more about them next week! 

-Fervel is an investigator we set a baptism date for this week, and he bore his testimony at church on Sunday! He grew up on the reservation and got hit in the head resulting in some serious mental issues. A few weeks ago he received a blessing from the zone leaders and since then has been able to remember everything we teach him and his limbs can move so much better than ever before. Miracles are worked through the priesthood. 

-Bailey is a recent convert who is 18 and I feel like I am teaching Jackson and Mckay when we are over there its the best. His two best friends are preparing to go on missions and they are helping us teach the new member discussions. We are trying to work with his family as well, he is the best example to them! His dad gives us a heaping bowl of ice cream every time we enter the door. 

-there's a pecan orchard right next to the church building with a rope swing and we sometimes get to watch the sunset there 

-we get free snow cones or ice cream every day to survive the heat❄

-Sister Gadd and I are getting soooo good at ridding with no hands

- Sister Gadd... she is UNBELIEVABLE! She is the funniest, most driven, remarkable missionary I have ever met. She came in 1 transfer after me so we are both pretty new and just go around trying to figure things out. I am so lucky to be her companion!! 

One thing someone said yesterday in church that I love was 'a testimony can't exist a test'.

I love you all and hope you are having lots of fun this sunny summer week:) 

Love, Sister Carter
