What up family well I'm rockin the new myldsmail so I hope it all works we all know how great I am at the one finger typing. Anywho this week was insane. Long story short Elder Rosales and I left for Asuncion Sunday night and got there at 5 in Asuncion where we slept in the office. Monday we sat in the office and then went to a few clinics where they did like a milion tests to him while I sat there sticking q tips up my nose like a wallris or however you spell it. After that we went back to the office and spent the night. The next day we went to the huge bautista hospital in Asuncion and they did a face scan on Rosales, then we went back to the allergies clinic and they said that Rosales was perfectly fine? Then after that we went to the office and the new missioaries showed up and there wasnt room for us so Rosales and I slept in this HUGE HOTEL haha it was insane I'll send some pics. After that we got our trnsfers and I am still here in PJC but Rosales is in the office as a office elder but most likely he will go home. Pretty insane my comp is an American finally named Elder Peterson from Utah, he was in my district my second change so I know him really well hes one of my really good friends so I am pretty happy about that. Also Sulie never got baptized because we didnt have water in our font because our president decided not to pay the water bill? And here when you dont pay they just rip out the pipes from the ground. After cleaning out the font by HAND AND BUCKETS we realized that there was no water so we called the fire fighters to come and fill up the font but long story short they never came. It was extremely depressing because we terminated every problem and at the last min the fire fighters never showed up. I'm thinking about saying there is a fire at the Mormon church and then maybe they will show up. Also I got called up to be district leader so I'm even more stressed but its all good I can handle it. I hope all is well Ilove you guys! para siempre dios este con vos. Elder Burr

Ello poppet!

First off on the PJC news is that we are about 99.999 percent sure that we will have a baptism on valentines day haha so stay tooned next week and pray that Sulie will be able to be baptized! Second off captain Spencer Bennion has been released long live the king haha I cant believe he got released haha hes a great guy and he did so much for windrift. I cant beleive that choke job peyton sealed the game with some picks thats horrible I wanted a tape recording of him after the super bowl saying how he wanted to say thank you to everyone of his family members and coaching staff like usual. Not much else going on oh ya I got the package and almost peed my pants laughing about the Craige Hensly card hahaha and also the towel works like a champ. Not much else going on just trying to stay positive and stay strong working hard with my comp.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ME!

Yellow

Hellp peeps yes the news is true I am 20 and old and ya my birthday felt just like Christmas, another day in Paraguay dying from heat gotta love it. I completely forgot it was my birthday and later that nightI got a call from president wade and I thought my comp had done something bad but he ended up calling to wish me a happy bday haha kinda crazy. Anyway things arent going to hot. My comp and I arent having to much success and I feel extremly stressed out babysitting and being senior comp. We arent having much success and like Elder Brown is doing we are also working with the members but everyone hates my comp. He's a funny kid and knows how to work but you just have to beat him a few times in the head to work but its fine. Dont worry about me I am doing great and just trying to have the desires to work when my comp says hes tired has allergies and how he wants to go home everyday. Anyway to anwser a few questions from all your emails and letters. First off we dropped Luana because she is now dating a 31 year old police officer and she is 14 pretty awesome yes I know. My shoes are perfeclty fine so you dont have to worry about that I've got 3 pairs so I am doing great so please dont put anymore money in my account or anything. I havent gotten any packages or letters but maybe next week its fine but I did get a card from Jim and Lil hahaha tell them thank you and I loved the card. not much else going on that I can think of I hope everyone is doing great and everyone is happy with big fat smiles because thats all I can do. I will try to send a few pics later if I have time as well love yall lots chauuuuuuuuuu Elder Burr

Colts, Colts, Colts!

As much as I dont like Peyton and he acts like a hick I'm going to have to say the Colts will take and Reggie will break his foot during this game. Anyone so what are we doing for the big 20 I was thinking everyone come on down to the land of PJC what do ya think ? Not much going on my comp and I are doing really good we were able to talk and I am keeping my pregnant comp obedient so its all G. We arent having much success but we are working like crazy and doubling our mission goals everyweek I know we will see success it just takes faith prayer and fast. Don't worry about my bday I've got a few appointments set up haha I tell everyone of our inv and members that my bday is coming up and I tell them to guess how many years I will complete and they usually say 30 haha ouch but hey what can you do its fine. Not much else going on oh and yes I know elder Dennis and Adamson they are in my zone Elder Dennis and I had a division he's the man he slept at my house and worked over here for a day.Aand to answewr your question there will never be anyone worse than Rivera I am perfectly capable of keeping Elder Rosales under control. It's insane Elder Rivera and my other comp elder alarcon leave this change! haha insane but here are a few photo's thanks for all the juicy emails they were great love ya all! PARA SIEMPRE DIOS ESTE CON VOS. ELDER BURR!

Comp. for sale 50 cents

Well this week has been................. like a horrible marriage I guess I have tasted just a tad bit of what it will feel like when my wife will be pregnant and cranky whinning about everything haha however you know me I've done this before so now I am trying to just stay happy and laughing always dont worry about me I am doing fine just grand! That was pretty sweet to get that email from Cam the chileanos are some pretty cool cats I think thats how you spell it. This week we worked like crazy because I can finally work my fanny off without my senior comp saying he wants to rest.I feel bad for my comp but its good for him hes pretty disobedient but with time it will change. We have fought most everyday and to make matters worse I've got lice haha I think thats how you spell it. I dont ever remember having lice but oh well hopefully I dont loose my hair. Anywho not much else going on we were supposed to have a baptism but the brazilian we were teaching decided to throw a chair at her pregnant sister so ya she never got baptized. Pray for my comp that he will have the desires to work because right now his attitude is I dont care if we baptize a single person. I know we will I dont have any doubts at all! PS dont send me anything for my bday what I would like is for you all to send me something you like about me like old times hahaha just kidding but seriously. hope all is well that sucks the cards lost but they werent allowed to when while I was here and couldnt watch it haha hope all is well stay happy and laugh because thats all I can do. chat next week live with Elder Burr

Senior Comp. train just pulled into the station

Hello family yes its true i am senior comp finally however my comp is elder rosales. not much more to say besides that lets just say he acts like Gestan from Beauty and the beast haha hes is EXTREMELY PRIDEFUL its incredible but i am learning to have alot more patience, loving, and humble. we pretty much straight up told me hes not obedient and there is nothing i can do about. i know president wade put me with him for a reason just like elder rivera. we are working extremely hard and i know that we will have succes i just have to put more faith in the lord. i know everything will be ok im just trying to be his friend and be supportive. this past week was insane we were talking to one of our investigators and she was just having a hard time and her life is pretty much a disaster, she has a 16 year sister who is pregnant who went to bolivia when she was 14 to bring drugs back to brazil where they used to live. her dad shot and killed her moms parentsand her mom went to jail for 3 years two different times and now her mom and her sister are addicted to smoking and drinking and she is slowly killing her baby. also they only speak port. its insane but its a good experience. anyway they got in a huge fight butr we finally got them all cooled down and we ended leaving the house with her mom and her hugging. her baptism is for this coming sunday her name is luana. keep her in your prayers. thank you for all the support and love and prays and everything i love you all sorry im in a horrible computer place i will send pics next week i love you all peace!para siempre dios este con vos. heres two scriptures i love mosiah 5;13 and enos 1;5 i wont give up shut up or let up until i have stayed up stored up and paid up for the cause of christ. i must go until he comes give until i drop preach all i know and work until he stops me and when he returns for his own he will have no problem recognizing me.MY BANNER IS CLEAR!

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!

Hello family well today was just another eh week, I'm getting pretty frustrated in my comp and I'm just about ready to accidently strangle him. He's a great kid hes just ridiculously LAZY its so hard working when every two seconds he is saying hungryI'm thirsty I'm tired this area sucks and much much more. We should be getting changes tonight or tomorrow and I am ready to go up as senior comp but its not my choice its the Lords so if my time isnt this change and I'm still with my comp well then I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord. I am just trying to stay postive and be a cheerleader for my comp to animate him. Pray for ya boy I love you guys and your all in my prayers I hope it was a good new years for you all I barely stayed up until 1030 ha and then at 1200 all of Paraguay woke me up with their traditional fireworks haha anywho peace para siempre dios este con vos. Elder Burrrr
