Non cadde un foglie che Dio non vuole.
Good afternoon to everyone! I am about as red as a tomato.
=) We went to Etna today and it was so much fun! That's why I'm a
little late on writing.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARA!!!
How was it? Did you like the soccer jersey I sent? I hope it fits.
What did you end up doing?
This week was another week in SICILIA. Yes, I’m still in
Messina. Anziano Errante is still planning on coming back however, he's
not sure when... hopefully soon. But Messina is great. We are
actually having a baptism this Saturday. Score =) She’s a Filipino lady
who is maybe 45 years old. Her husband isn’t 100% on the ship yet, but he
supports her being baptized and hopefully shortly he'll follow.
This week we had Stake conference and Zone conference. I'm
pretty conferenced out! But they we're all very helpful and instructive.
The Bishop here asked that we participate in the Saturday session of
Stake conference. So we took a 3 hour bus to the middle of the island to
Enna. The ride was very long but there were some good talks. You’ll
remember the Nuno’s he’s now the Stake President and he is great. Then there was the Sunday session which was
pretty sweet, I'm not sure if Germany was involved, but, it was a broadcast
from Salt Lake for all of the western European countries. It was almost
ALL about families, the importance of families, how to raise families, etc.
I really liked it. Oh wait; there
was the bus ride on Sunday. We were riding along (a little bit late) and
there was a big bang! Everyone screamed and the driver pulled over to the side
of the road. One of the wheels had exploded! Nice! =P we sat there for a
nice 45 minutes and thankfully another bus was able to come and take us to
conference. Gratefully, no one was hurt. =P
Then there was Zone conference on Tuesday which is always nice to attend.
President Kelly has been Mission President for 2 years now and his
training was on what he's learned as a Mission President. He said some
really great things about time management, being Christ like, and being diligent.
He's great. As you can see in the picture. 2 of the sisters
were wearing a red and green shirt, so we made the Italian flag. =) I
also got to see Anziano Miller which was really great.
I was also able to have my 3 month interview with President.
It was nice, we really only talked about Anziano Errante, but it's such a
blessing to have those 15 minutes every 2 transfers.
That is terrible about Ginger!! Holy cow!! I hope she recovers
quickly. I'll be praying for her. And you to Abby, just make sure
you look everywhere. You're not really in a spot to be picky... =/
Sounds like graduation was pretty fun, that’s good you were able to
go. That’s sad the Carlson’s are leaving....
That story of Julianna is the best!!! It’s great to hear things like
that that she knows that prayer works!!
As far as your trip for summer break, you should consider going to Northern
Italy. I discovered a secret out. The ties that I’m buying... you
can buy 100 of them in a huge warehouse in either Bergamo or Como for 2 euro
per tie. Pretty sweet huh?!?! ;)
Well, I need to go... You all are so great. Have a great 1st
week of summer; take lots of pictures (I loved that you sent some to me!!)
Be safe enjoy the sun once it comes, wear sunscreen. Drink enough water,
stay safe, and remember I love you!!
