Picture Description!
Elder Kilifi and I with Elder Richards and Elder Marble eat good! See all the fruits. It's actually a fruit store not even just the section in superstore! YEAH Pretty sweet. It's not too shabby the way we eat I promise. That lady started asking me questions about the church because I told her I needed to take a picture because I'm far away from my family and they need to know I'm eating well!
Another one is of me trying out brother Laubmans crazy back fixing machine. I don't think it worked. It went up and down and moved my legs but I wasn't sure what it accomplished! ha ha
Lastly is a picture of our district minus the sisters and plus the Elders serving in whitecourt. This was the last time I have seen Elder Wright. He's an amazing man and has been through a lot to be here.
This week we had marvelous miracles.You may remember our good friend Johan Fernando! He bailed a little while back to Sri Lanka and some of his last words to me were that he had lost faith and couldn't understand why God would keep his family away from him. I bore my testimony to him to no avail that night. I feel a love for Johan that is strong. After hanging up the phone with him a prayed for around 30 minutes in tears pleading for a second chance with him and that his fail would be restored.Last week, Elder Kilifi answered the phone. The voice on it sounded familiar though I couldn't decipher and words. When Elder Kilifi asked "Who's joan?" I sprung from my chair to the phone.I will share with you that the joy I then felt is amazing! I feel strongly that Johan will be baptized and that his love for God is going to carry him. Heavenly Father is so merciful to his little Elder McCarty.In other news The three amigos (Sergio, Elizabeth, and Omar) are on for baptism in a week and one half. Elder Kyler McCarty wrote me this week telling me how to testify for him to them that they will feel many things and one word he used, Tranquility. Last night when asked how she felt when she prayed about the book of mormon and joseph smith she replied "tranquilo." The spirit knows no country lines and apparently is fearless towards the extreme weathers of paraguay and canada. The promise came after the fulfillment but it is no less a testimony to me that all things are done in the capable hands of our merciful creator.I am doing better at writing in my journal these days. I hope I can create a record that will be a testament to my family of the beauty and simplicity of the gospel and the way in which it blesses our lives.I love and miss you all. Thank you for your letters this week they were all marvelous and have helped me to feel full of love.I am grateful for your support and prayers!
Love,Eldre McCarty
P.S. Things at bullies barber didn't end up happening but Elder Kilifi gave me an african man hair cut. He calls it a fade! Unfortunately dad it's too short for corn rows. And Elder Kilifi said he doesn't know how to do a lightning bolt.:D Life is good.I love you
