Don't forget to fast and pray for the month of invites!!!
Wednesday! We had a nice relaxing Pday with the Sorelle (sisters) in
Firenze. We made pizza together! They were the biggest pizzas I have ever made!
It was so fun and I just love them all so much!
Don't forget to fast and pray for the month of invites!!!
Thursday: Such a lovely day! We went to Susan and Dennis' for lunch. They
will be baptized next weekend and we couldn't be more excited! We went over the
baptismal interview and it was so powerful! Dennis is just a kid but he is so
amazing. The gospel has already changed his life so much and he is aware of it.
He prays now and receives answers and recognizes them. And Susan has told us
that before the church came into her life she held some much anger inside of her
but now she is at peace. Beautiful. BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!
Later that night we had a "light dinner" with our Italian mom! I love her
so much! We talked about the Plan of Salvation. She said that there are many
hard things in her life that have made it so she is not worthy or has just
messed up too much but we were able to promise her that it is never too late to
change! She has had a hard life and has many struggles now but even in the short
time I've known her I have seen her life get better. I just love her so much!
Even if she did feed me spline and liver without telling me :( wah wah
waahhh)
Friday!!! Friday was miraculous!!! FULL of miracles!! We had a first lesson
with our new convert's mom. It was amazing! As soon as I met her--as soon as we
start teaching her-- I knew she was ready. That she had been prepared for this.
I felt such a strong connection with her too! She has seen a lot of trials in
her life and she still has such an amazingly strong faith! I love her and can't
wait to keep working with her! *Uniting families* Whooh!
That evening we did a restoration lesson with a member who just recently
came her from Brazil and she brought her boyfriend with her to church! We had
such a great lesson! The fact that Heavenly Father restored the true church of
Jesus Christ and that we have a living prophet is a demonstration of how much He
loves us! As I read and truly study the scriptures I know more and more with
every part of my soul that Heavenly Father lives. That Christ suffered and died
for us but He still lives! He leads and guides us every day through the prophet
and leaders of the church. I see many people-- my same age older and younger--
every day and it makes me sad that they don't know what the point is or that
there is nothing to believe in. But there is! There is such much and we don't
even know!!
Saturday: Was a great day! We were able to visit some member family and
make some family mission plans!!! Whoop whoop!! Best way to unify a family? The
gospel! I love our branch! I think I say it every week but truly, these are the
best group of missionaries I've ever worked with!! I love it!
This week we also did a scambio (exchange) in Pisa again. It was amazing!
Miracles to come next week!
Don't forget to fast and pray for the month of invites!!!
Love you all! Let me know you're still alive and send me a letter :)
Hehehehe it had to be said...
Take care,
