Yes I am doing perfectly fine mother deary. the test came back splendid and I've got no more headaches or anything and I wont be turning into an elephant. This week was pretty eh as you might call it. My comp and I like usual have been working hard teaching, finding and listening to the drunks say annoying stuff and ya its a war out here, having to teach the people to repent and to come unto Christ giving up the things of the world and being baptized. This Sunday I was pretty down not in the efforts of my comp and I but just in the people and how wicked the world is getting. Compared to the u.s its like May berry from Andy Griffith, but here in Paraguay its like the war in Iraq. Wow horrible analogy but you get what I'm trying to say. Yesterday night we were talking with a member outside just about when Christ will come and save his children. while talking to him all I could here was drunks singing and yelling and girls screaming and ya just a nightmare. Sundays are now a joke in the world but its just insane to really see what the heck is going on in the world and its really depressing. I know there are people who are thinking the same stuff that I am thinking but aren't members and that they are praying for my comp and I to come looking for them. We have a few inv getting ready to be baptized but they have to give up a few things so that they can progress but its all good they will progress. We should have had a baptism on Sunday but our inv who didn't have work when we first taught her now has work and is working on Sundays so now we are trying to teach her that God will bless her with work for other days just like how he blessed her with work on Sundays haha it kinda sucks but its a blessing at the same time. I love what I am doing here and I am working like crazy because I know I've only got a year left and I want no regrets.I know this church is true and that its through the book of Mormon that we can know it! I know that this book is often kept under our beds or balances a table so that its sturdy or thrown places we don't know where, but we must be reading and praying and going to church so that we can fight against Satan and his temptations. Not to much else going on please pray for this area and our inv. Gerald and his 3 kids, Mariana, and Elizabeth and her 2 girls. Thank you for the love and support hugs and kisses from Paraguay Salado. love ya boy Elder Burr ps Pres Wade and Hermana Wade are going to our house tomorrow like they did that one time to see if our house is clean haha it sucks but I'm excited. any who CHAUU!
