Father is very upset today. Since he became the minister in Salem, he has been quarreling with others in our community but about what, I don’t really know. At night, he complains to mother that he feels the devil is at work here and is trying to stop his faithful flock from growing. He sometimes says things that make me uneasy, yet I cannot talk to anyone about this because he believes he is speaking to mother in private during these times and I am supposed to be asleep. More and more people in our covenant are not attending which is troubling father. During his sermon’s, Father tells our congregation that we are God’s chosen people and that outsiders that refuse to join us are wicked. He told Mother that some of the villagers are refusing to pay taxes for Father’s salary. Father has explained to me, and I agree, that we have come to Salem with a very important purpose and that is to combat the evilness that lurks in the hearts of many here. I hope that his Godly undertaking will inspire these wicked ones to bear in mind the consequences of their corrupt ways because if they refuse to pay Father with currency, they will pay the Devil with their souls!
