Florida or Bust!

As a family, we have decided to walk the distance from Bennington to Orlando, Florida before Elder Burdick completes his mission. Together we hope to have walked 2298 miles before October 2009. And maybe be a size or two smaller!! Thank you Lara for up-dating our count down. Start Walking!!!

Today's detail-less email

Hey fam!

Thank you soo much for all of your emails! I definitely have thee coolest family ever!

Well, I know that i have had some great weeks in the past, but this last week definitely surpasses them all! I have just had the most amazing week of my entire mission i believe! The lord has soo richly blessed us! We taught soo many spiritual lessons this week and sooo many amazing people! We taught probably about 7-8 lessons a day, most of which were in members homes, we were being led every step to prepared people! When we would go contacting we would meet the most amazing people one right after another and we had our phone ringing like crazy for more appointments to be set up! We have served with all our heart, might, mind, and strength, and the lord has blessed us for it! It is soo satisfying at the end of the week to look back and know that you did your absolute best, and that you filled the measure of your creation! That you laid it all out on the line for the Lord, and received blessings from on high! I give all credit to him, but i am soo thankful for the opportunity to have him work through me! It seems like when we weren't teaching, we were on our knees thanking the lord and praying to find the next lost sheep! The spirit of God like a fire is Burning!

Thank you soo much for all that you do! I love you soo much! I am praying for you! Love, Elder Burdick ps. The church is soo TRUE!

Now you are as informed as the rest of us! :)
