>Well this week I had a blonde moment I guess you could say haha what happened this week is I bought some ramon noodle soup to eat. As I was getting ready to make It I realized we didn't have gas for our gas stove so I decided to put the medal pan in the microwave. While I was sitting there waiting for it to cook all of a sudden the microwave started to catch on fire so I opened the microwave and with out thinking grabbed the burning hot pan. I learned my lesson not to put metal things in the microwave because it left one big fat burn on my fingers haha any who enough about that. I cant believe how fast the time is flying, its a little bit scary. Sometimes I am ready to come home and then the next minute I would rather stay here, its like a second family to me. I truly love the people here, they are so amazing and humble and ready to serve the lord when called. The members are helping us some much and they have complete trust in us now. This week we should have two baptisms so if you guys could pray for Amalia (the one who rocks the Yankees hat) and also Tamarra. We had an absolute miracle this week, right when we got to church we were looking to see if Amalia had showed up to church but we didn't see anyone wearing a hat. Then all of a sudden I saw a lady sitting in the front with like a semi fro haha sure enough it was AMALIA!! We were able to teach her all of the lessons and now she is ready to get baptized this Thursday! wooooooooooo! I am really happy right now though, life is good and I am working my fanny off before I come home. Please be praying for Primitiva and Sulley as well they are two of my converts that I baptized. They are getting ready to go to the temple before i leave so we are trying to get everything set up before I go home. Here are a few versus that I really like from the book of mormon. Its in Nephi 13: 31-34- It talks about how we don't need to worry about money, food, or clothes because God already knows that we need those things but what we must first look for is the Kingdom of God and then he will bless us with what we need. I hope all is well back at home, stay positive and keep it real. Here is one last quote by Richard G Scott: God will not always reward you immediately according to your desires. Rather God will respond with what in his eternal plan is best for you. I love you all please pray for the people in Cañada Garay! love Elder Burr

The pill is called La Bomba!

Ya I think I will be fine from the pill and better yet if I get sick I wont have to give me talk haha. What is my talk on and how long does it have to be. I have no question mark key on this computer so this is kind of weird . Sounds like everything is same old same old , Here in Canada garay as mom calls it haha (cañada garay) we have been working like crazy trying to get everything that this area doesn't have. As of right now we have inv, we have a new home right in front of the church, We have lunch appointments and ya everything is just groovy I guess you could say. This week we really forgot ourselves and just decided to serve people in our ward and we also decided to get the members involved instead of them always having this weird tension against the missionaries. The members are really getting attached to us and we had a miracle of being able to have 4 inv at church yesterday in an area that has a lot of problems. We are now able to really stay focused with some of our investigators and have them progressing towards baptism. I know that the prayers you guys have been offering have been answered! It was super funny because we have an investigator named Amalia who for the life of her with not take off her Yankees hat haha. Yesterday at church she showed up and sure enough she was rocking her hat. Our branch pres started laughing and said if she doesn't want to take her hat off I guess we could get her a white one for when she gets baptized hahaha not much else going on I'm just living the dream and kicking it like a villain. Like I told Sarah I'm as giddy as a school girl to come home but I am as focused as Jordan in the 4th quarter. I know this church is true and that we are blessed as we are obedient to what the Lord asks of us. Just like in Nephi the Lord will never give us a task that we cant accomplish. Fight the fight and stay patient ya-ll. One last quote from Elder Burr before I bounce. LIFE IS LIKE A ROLLER COASTER, PUT YOUR HANDS UP AND SCREAM!. Love Elder Burr

Finally Free!

Yes its true I am finally out of the office haha, as of right now like I said I am in Cañada Garay which is a place that is just a little bit insane. Its been closed for a few months now for a couple of reasons. One of the reasons being that a missionary got in a fight with a member and because its super ghetto out here and the missionaries have been robbed a lot haha its pretty fun. President gave me the special assignment to open this area back up which doesn't have lunch appointments, a house, service for our phone, AIR, no one to wash clothes, or inv I guess you could say we are starting from scratch. Its been quite the adventure but I am loving every minute of the pain and suffering I am going through haha. Now a little bit about my companion, his name is Elder Soto and he is from Argentina. I also got the assignment to babysit again, he just barely got in trouble for doing some disobedient things but I love the kid he is great and I am helping him to work hard and not waste his time. I was hoping to have a junior comp that would be pushing me to work my last change but its all good I am working extremely hard and I am having to put in more effort to stay focused. The members out here are super happy to have us here but of course there are a few that still think missionaries are bad and what not but we are trying to do service and do visits with everyone so that they will like us haha. i truly love the people here and i can see it being one of my favorite areas. We had a miracle bringing someone to church because this whole week has been insane trying to find where the members live and having to look for inv. I am working the hardest I have ever worked and more and I know that the lord will bless my comp and I with success! I hope everyone is doing great! Oh yeah crazy news elder Lucas went home because his knee wasn't getting any better, Also the sleeping bag, and hammock will be getting sent home this week. I don't think it will get there for 2 months haha. I love you guys! Dad thanks for always making me trunky with the whole fast Sunday count down haha. Stay happy and tell Jim and Lil that ill be praying for them! don't be scared to open your mouth and talk to them about the gospel. Let them know that this might be a sign from god telling them that they need to listen to the missionaries. Don't be scared of what they say, if you don't ever talk to them about it the answer is already NO. Love Elder Burr
