3-22-10 St Patrick's Day

Family and Friends,

come. End of story.
The weather is playing tricks on us. Wednesday it was about 50. Thursday it was 65. It was heavenly. We even left out suit jackets at the appartment, and opened the sliding glass door to let the air come in. Then Friday is snowed an inch. Accursed skies- they threw us for a loop. But it is back up to the 50s and about all the snow is gone.

We had six investigators attend church, one of which will be baptized this Saturday (Gabriela Navarro). I am really excited. She and her husband had told us they wanted to get baptized, but did not want to set a date yet. We had a team up this week with our branch mission leader that went really well. We went over Mosiah 18 and asked her what was keeping her from being baptized. She gave us a few reasons, but her Husband told her that they weren't really reasons, but excuses. She realized this and told us the only thing that was really keeping her from a date was that she needed to stop waiting and just do it. She agreed to be baptized the 27th, and she is super excited for it. They announced it on Sunday in our Spanish group, and it seemed like she was alive with the spirit. Her husband and son should follow along too, soon. We also have Carlos Sanches set to get baptized the 27th. We really hope he can make that date and be baptized.

I am also sending a few pictures. One is of a really tiny house. I don't know if the picture does it justice. Two are of out "Easter" eggs, and one is Elder Shumway standing on a table. We have terrible reception in out appartment. TERRIBLE. But if we stand on the table, it works a lot better.

Until next week,
-Elder Burnham
