Carter is absolutely loving his mission. With each email we receive he sounds more and more like an adult! He has been a zone leader for months and loves the challenges it brings. He is constantly setting goals for himself and for his companion and will regularly achieve them! The area he is in right now is the area his friend Jaden was in before being assigned the Assistant to the President. He has taken his spot and kept pressing forward and has continued to keep that area doing well, which I know has made Jaden very happy. A few weeks ago Jaden and Carter were able to go on an exchange together! It was the first time that they had been able to serve together and they were THRILLED!! They got to spent the night together before the exchange and they were up late talking about mission life and making goals and then hit the ground running the next day and had a fantastic exchange.
They sent a few pictures of their time together!
Hard to believe that they have been friends since 4th grade! It's amazing that they ended up in the same mission! :)
Then a few weeks later they had the opportunity to do a training together! It was all about setting goals and the importance of that. They managed to sneak and get a video of it and sent it to us to watch. It was awesome! They did and amazing job and I am certain that it will bring results!
I am so proud of Carter! There's only about 5 more months until he will be home and that just shocks me! His time in the mission field has gone SO quickly!! We talk often in our emails about plans for when he gets home and he is very anxious to start school and work on his future. He even has said here and there that he's working on his diet still so he can impress the ladies when he gets home! haha! All of that will come in time, but for now I am just proud of his service and dedication to missionary work. He is putting all he has into the work and I know he will be blessed for that! We love our missionary!!!!
