Hey guys!
This week was super busy and crazy. I'll let you
guys get a feel for what has been going on.
On Monday night, I received my transfer call,
and it's pretty lit. I am opening a new companionship in Pescara and
training!!!
So now my new son is Anziano McConkie, who is a
straight-up stud. He sings like an angel, and in his own words he is
"dripping majesty." I confirm my companion's witness. He aspires to
perform on Broadway, and I'll put my money on him. Then in our house here, we also
have Anziano Toronto as the district leader, and his new greenie, Anziano
Waddell. They are both beasts, and you can easily see that it's going to be a killer
2 transfers.
Since we have been blown in, we don't have much
work, but we do have one miracle investigator. MK, who is a nonmember son of
a Filipino member of Rome 1, moved to Pescara. So I started teaching him in
Rome and now I will teach him here. We also totally do not know the city at all,
but it's super cool. Anziano Toronto has been a great help in guiding us to
different things in the city. Also, we are about to start teaching a super sick pianist who performs in
the city center, and Anziano McConkie has been singing with him, haha.
This week we went to the church and met all the
members. They are so sick (cool) . And Pescara went from 2 Anziani
and 2 Sorelle, to 4 Anziani and 4 Sorelle. All of us are training, haha. So there
was a lot of excitement. The reason why we are all here is because they
are about to finish a new HUGE church. It's right next to our apartment. So we
are gonna fill up the church with people so Pescara can become a stake
sometime! Anyways, this city is straight "on fire." I can feel the excitement in my
blood and it also may be because Anziano McConkie is a straight beast who is
prepared to bust his butt for the full 2 years. I feel like this new group of
missionaries are the most prepared I have ever seen.
To top off the cake, this weekend was a holiday
here in Pescara, and our sick neighbors invited us to eat arrosticini
with them, which is skewered lamb. It was super cool. They had a
big party, and half of the people were our neighbors; the other half
was their Belgian family. We were super happy, hahahah.
Anyways, God puts us where people need us. Don't
forget to reach out to others around you!
Love,
Anziano Ridd
Ps. All
the guys in my house are sick singers, so we are singing a lot this transfer.
Pps. All of the other Anziani are 6'1"-
6'6" - so I look freaking tiny.
