of no internet service yesterday. (I have permission).
*By the way, I go to Napoli (Naples) with Anziano Mercado!
Hey
Family!
Today
is Ferragosto! (An Italian holiday). Because of this, there is almost no one in
the city. And because of that, we all do deep cleaning today – so I spent today
cleaning the house. It is amazingly clean now. So, yay for that – but it also
kinda stinks because nobody works today. Literally everything is closed. We can’t
go shopping today for groceries.
BUT this week they changed when transfer calls are. They were not on Saturday morning;
they will be tonight. So I don’t know if I am going or staying. If I go,
transfers are on Thursday (but I would probably go Friday, due to my permesso).
So yeah - it will probably be an eventful week.
This
week was kind of slow. Lots of people were gone because of the time of year,
and I got really sick Wednesday night. Let’s just say it must have been food
poisoning or something. On Thursday I felt really bad, so I slept the whole day and
was better by Friday.
Besides
that, we met with a couple of potentials. Mostly crossed off people not
interested though. And we found some new potentials. One I’m excited about is a
young family. I hope we can meet with them this week.
DM
has been coming and going because apparently he is just in the country for most
of the time. So I met with him and taught him a bit. We also taught P a couple
of times and he was showing good progress until he didn’t come to church on
Sunday. Kinda sad. But let’s hope for next week.
This
week I had a lot of mission pride for some reason. I spent the whole week
thinking about how this mission is definitely the best mission in the world.At
least for me. But probably just in general the best in the world. :) I mean – Paul was serving
in this mission! How sick (awesome) is that!? I really do love serving as a
missionary. When you talk to just about everyone on the street, it really gives
you the feeling that you are in the culture and it creates a love for the people.
Even when the conversation often never starts.
The
scripture I want to share is Corinthians 13. (Click here to read this chapter). I've read it and watched the Bible video
this week on Charity. I pretty much love this scripture and have been studying
it pretty hard. I encourage all to study Charity this week. Without charity, we
are nothing. (View this 3-minute video on Charity here).
I
love all y’all! Keep being amazing!
