To my Fans!
HEYO! Hows it going folks! Lets just start off by saying I loved every ones letters haha I didn't know it was for Christmas but asI read I was a little confused because everyone was wishing me a merry Christmas ha. I couldn't stop laughing after I had read every ones letters they were hilarious! I am glad that everyone is doing awesome and to hear that life really still is moving at home. I can not believe all the people that are married it blows my mind! haha man its crazy. This week was a tough one for my comp and I. My comp was sick the whole week pretty much and might need to get his nose operated on haha I told him that if he had it done here he would look just like Michael Jackson haha he resented that. This week was the hottest and coldest I have ever been in my life. Here in Paraguay when it is beginning to rain it is so unbearably hot also the day after it rains. and when it begins raining and you are out in it, it is freezing cold! We had alot of rain this week which was crazy, it seems like I either fall in the mud every week or get close to it haha this week I did good. On Friday it was so hot that my comp and I couldn't even sleep, it was like an oven! Then Saturday I was sleeping with a blanket haha I swear it really is like camping but I would trade nothing for these experiences I love all the misery and joy that I get here! This week was a really tough one with investigators as well. We had a total of 5 GOLD FAMILY'S AND ONE BUY ONE THEY FELL! my comp and I started being alot more direct with our inv and they all were direct with us and said thousands of lame excuses. I asked one of our family's if they knew that the church was true, If they thought that God wanted them to be baptized and married. They agreed and after I said if you receive an answer from God will you get baptized. They then replied no. I was absolutely, shocked that someone can have a clear perfect knowledge that these things are true but not be baptized. It makes you so sad because we know that these things are true but sometimes the people we love don't. I loved how brother Andes said its amazing how we go into the mission as knuckleheads I think he said it haha and we come out as polished priesthood holders. its so true! I have seen a complete change in my life and it is amazing. Thank you for all the support and love! I hope all is well. I cant wait to talk for Christmas! PS ITS BEGINNING TO LOOK ALOT LIKE CHRISTMAS! not. Love Elder Burr!
