hey guys,
i want to thank everyone for all the support and just letting you know that i am doing really well and everything is going great here in honduras. time is flying by and cant believe that we only have a week and acouple days left here. its exciting to be already on month three and feel that the time that we have spent here has been good for everyone and people are getting more comfortable.
We have done a lot of manual work since being here and I have enjoyed it a lot. Last week we were doing some foundation work on a boy’s house that stays here on the property for his mom, and it was a good time getting to give the house some new and better support. We were in a part of tegusigalpa calles los penos, and it is one of the more dangerous and violent colonies here, but everything went really well and the neighborhood was accepting to us being there and we had no problems with anyone. This weekend tony, our mission host, is thinking about taking a group of people up there at night to experience that because it is supposed to be crazy and out of control with teenagers and just a big party. I don’t feel that I am going to go but I am looking forward to heearing about the excitement from some of the others that will go. I am just really nervous about putting myself in a situation where kids are shooting off guns and having drugs at the same time(cant be the best situation). Im sure that everything will be fine though for the people that go and will be a good experience. It is just not on my heart.
We have been working on the property all week and mostly just digging trenches for some water pipes to be covered. We had a free day yesterday and had a great day at the beach and it was fun. I had picured a busy beach and touristy, but it was a little remote island that had barely anything on it. Today has been a great day and doing a lot of racking outside and it was great weather. Not hot at all here since were up on a mountain so I have loved that.
Been doing a lot of thinking and figuring some personal goals for myself this year and really excited for the outcome and the journey of finding new discoveries in my life and looking forward to how I will have changed. So this month for me is going great and loving Honduras. So thankyou again for all of your support and everything yal have done to get me here.
Sincerely,
Carter
