June 13, 2011




Well hello everyone. Sounds like you all had a pretty okay week! Nothing to crazy happened for any of you. We had an okay week too. I'm pretty glad its p-day though not going to lie. haha We sure did alot of tracking this week with out much success. Needless to say I'll be fine when women reject me when I get home next year hahaha. But we did have a pretty cool experience yesterday at church. We had a guy just randomly come with a member I've never seen before. The member said he was interested and wanted to know more. We went down stairs in our building and taught him a full first lesson. He accepted it really well and we really stressed the importance of authority. He is homeless kind of and doesn't have a number or address so we set up another appointment for next week. I hope he comes. He said he really liked church and everything so... I hope he'll come. We taught Junior a after baptism lesson which was good and my Portuguese is getting alot better. I can understand about 80% of what they say to me and I can answer back decent haha. We had the Culley's really step up and help us with food this week. They fed us twice and Bro. Culley went and found less actives with us in Barington, RI where he lives and its so beautiful there. They recently moved from Utah so we've bonded pretty well and he goes back every week almost so if I need anything to go home he send he'll swing it by for me. I do have a couple things coming home. The Ipod and some books that were on sale in the Library that I want to read when I get home just FYI. (Books will come later this week) I have had a really sore throat the last couple days. So that's been kind of a bummer. The other night I went down to the gym to workout before going to bed and there was this guy there who played b-ball at temple for a bit and I played against him in 1 on 1. I almost won despite him being about 4 inches taller and 30 pounds heavier then I haha. 11 to 7. afterward I talked to him about prophets and how we got called by a prophet of god. He's seemed pretty interested so I hope I'll see him again. But other then that people are getting more hard hearted haha sucks but... the work must go on. I love you all and until next week.

Love,
Elder Burton
