Deric is staying busy in Honduras. They had 2 baptisms on Saturday. Even though he has been cautioned about success not being shown by numbers, he is keeping track and told us that he has helped to save 20 souls in the first 5 1/2 months in Honduras. On Wednesday, February 10, he will be transferred. President Cruz told him last week in his interview that he will not be staying in Pineda. I sensed a little apprehension when he let me know about the upcoming transfer. He's always been a little concerned about big changes. We just pray he will go where he is needed and can do the most good.
Deric's birthday is coming up next month. He would love letters from family and friends. The easiest way to send him a note is through www.dearelder.com. You just enter his name and his mission (Honduras San Pedro Sula) then type in your message. They take care of getting the note to SLC and in the pouch to go to Honduras. It doesn't cost anything and if you get it done by noon on Thursday, it goes out the following Monday and Deric gets it about a week later. It works well. You can also e-mail him at dericlarkin@myldsmail.net. You can probably count on not getting anything back from him. We still haven't got a letter through snail mail and he can only send e-mail to immediate family. I'm sure he will let us know who he hears from and we can let you know he got your messages. If your kids want to make cards and pictures, I will be sending a box on February 17. Get your stuff to me before then and I will include it. Thanks!!
