Marc's email 7/25/2011

Hey mom how are you? Just so you know I bought a tight watch from sears cause my other one started smelling like you know what and it was broken and ugly. In best buy I picked up a voice recorder for Elder Black cause he wanted it so he gave me the money after. It was just one of those times where I felt the need to spend some money. You know the feeling that you always feel?? Im sure you understand me. Well a little bit about this week. Tuesday we had interviews and they went really well. President was impressed by the way we taught and he really liked the way we worked together. He apparently saw a strength in me and the Wednesdy we had special changes. He put me with Elder Carrasco who is going home next change and President know I wont let him do stupid stuff his last change. This is the first time Pres has actually placed me with some challenge so it is really nice. I assure you there wont be any problems here with missionaries that dont work their last change. This week the two baptisms that we had fell and one of them rejected us pretty bad. It was way sad cause we had like 4 weeks teaching them but as we walked away I felt a little bit of how the Savior felt when all He wanted to do was help and all the people rejected Him. I guess thats what I get for praying for more patience. But we had 6 new people in the church that loved it so we will see how this week goes with them. I am abut ready to baptize someone again it has been way too long. Yesterday in our meal we ate beef ribs and mashed potatoes that were so good. It has been 10 months since I have tasted something as good as that so that was also nice. Mom just so you know a little bit about the president. He isnt a man of many words. He is really serious but he cares alot about us and wants us all to gain a personal testimony. That is why he is always so hard on us. I have really changed my thoughts on him and he is a great man just a little hard to understand. His name is Pres. Saucedo. Where is Tommy going again and when does Josh Stephan leave? How is Vanessa doing with the married lifestyle and how is Jake doing. How is the family and stuff. Does tommy leave this week. And JJ Burr? Well Mom thats about it for this week. I know this work is real and I know I am working for the Lord. I know that He is my Savior and that we can live with Them again. I love you mom and am so grateful for you and your hard work. I hope you al have a great week. Im out!
Elder Burr
