Snow = cold

Well This week it decided to snow.  As I speak it is overcast and the temperature feels well below 30.  There is a ski resort just above our sector and you can see the slopes covered in a gorgeous white blanket. It makes me feel really sad.  Snow without snow boarding, is no fun at all.  Just cold.  My companion loves it though, he has never seen snow before and every time it starts falling he pulls out his camera and starts recording.  So that's exciting.   The morning Tai Kwan DO classes have transformed into just pure running.  

This week..... well we had an awesome lesson with Nelson, we brought a member with us and everything.  And we talked about the plan of salvation, Nelson´s brother died last week and he has taken it really hard.  during the lesson we asked what he felt, he said he felt peace, and how he hasn't had peace in his life for a while.  It was the spirit and we explained what it was and how he could have that peace for the rest of his life.  We invited him to be baptized the 31 of May.  The only thing is that Nelson has had lots of baptismal dates but he is addicted to cigarettes.  The longest he has gone without smoking is about 15 days.  He wants to be baptized, he knows everything we can teach him, he just can't stop smoking.  Me and my companion are going to start visiting him everyday to see how it is going.  We also are going to do a fast with him to give him some extra spiritual strength.

Thats about it.  We are going to know our transfers this week so that is nerve wracking.  I feel like i am going. I have been in Fitz Roy for 4.5 months now, but there is always hope.  I really want to stay here.  All of the members are awesome and we have some awesome investigators.  But I'll go where ever I'm needed.

I love all you guys.

Love,
Elder Burup
