The ward talent show |
7 kilo porchetta (delicious Italian pork) |
Good
morning fam!
This week
was dang busy and super enjoyable.
We will
start with the people highlights. MN, the Albanian investigator
we have, is a gem. The guy is doing all he needs to right now, reading,
praying, and coming to church whenever it is possible. He is learning well and
willing to meet with us about twice a week. I love MN; he is such a great
guy. Then there is MO; he is a new investigator that we met on a metro (like
normal). He speaks perfect English and actually has been translating for his
church from English to Italian. He was so excited to hear about the “restored
gospel.” Then I met a guy that was literally searching for the truth. His name
was RW and he is so excited to get a Book of Mormon. This week was awesome
for meeting people on public transportation.
Then last
Saturday we had a big talent show in church. It was super fun and the members
loved it. Of course, at the end we had a ton of food, including a 7 kilo
porchetta. Sooo delicious. My favorite talent was by one of the sisters in the
ward. She went up there and taught us how to make a pasta. It's was one of
those "Only in Italy" moments - hahaha.
Sunday
was pretty good. I gave a talk this week on missionary work, but a based a ton
of it off of a talk from Anziano Hales. It's the October 2012 talk called
"Being A More Christian Christian." I recommend
everyone to give that a good read; it is amazing. (To read or listen to this talk, click here). It was cool - in part of the
talk I quoted our Mission President...and this week he was in our Sacrament
meeting. That doesn't happen too often.
Today we
played zone calcio. Turned out that Anziano Bourne and I were the only ones
from our zone, and the rest were from Rome East. It was a ton of fun.
I love
you all. Thanks for all the support!
