Family!! Thanks so much for
the letters! and the straps! and the CD!! You guys are carrying me through
this....literally!!
So Conference was awesome,
we are so lucky to be living in a time were we know exactly what we need to do in
order to be happy in this life AND return to live with God.
I was getting a little
stressed during conference, I felt like it was pretty intense. I feel like our
church might be reaching that peak of success and then the pride cycle will
take place, and next thing we know we got Lamanites on walls and we are all
shooting arrows at him.
It was super cool watching
the world report after conference. It feels good being informed.
So definitely the highlight
of the week has been Regina and Leo. So we met Leo through English class. And
he has an older Sister with 2 kids. So we heard from him that she just had a
baby, so we thought we would bring her some You Fan. Oil Rice, because
apparently that is the tradition. So we did it, and she was just super touched.
So it opened the door for us to share the gospel and they have been so
receptive, they watched conference with us and they have a baptismal date for
the 27th. I am still a little shaken up over Wu Ji. I really don’t want to mess
this up. They are just such a wonderful family. I am going to have to learn how
to rely on the Lord.
When investigators keep
their commitments, it is awesome! People that are true to their word are people
of Christ. Something that I learned from Conference is the power of honesty.
But it’s cool being on a mission were I can be so honest with people. If they
read and pray about the Book of Mormon they WILL get an answer. This Church
really is true. It really was restored through Joseph Smith, I’m not lying out
here....it’s just the truth.
Love you all!! I will have
a better letter next week!
Elder Burr
