Chapter Five: The 14th Epistle of Anziano Stewart to the Sicilians

 
Allora.... It's so great to hear from all of you, I’m glad that everyone is doing well.  I can't believe that J is going to be having her 1st official birthday party, how exciting!!! And it's going to be princess themed, complete with a castle cake?!?!?!? Mama mia! If you can, save a piece for me. =P  Make sure you take a lot of pictures!! This needs to be documented.

J, I'm not sure if you have figured it out yet or not, but someone has to tell you.... we aren't a normal family.  We never have been and chances are we won't ever be one... BUT that is a good thing; we can be an extraordinary family.  How does that sound?!?! Also, you drew a GREAT reindeer, mama mia!! have you considered moving up to oil based paints?  See what mom thinks. =)

As far as work goes, things are kind of returning to normality, thankfully. We have a ton (like 14) of really solid potential investigators.  They will really help grow our teaching pool.  But the best part is that if everything goes according to plan we'll be teaching 3 part member families!!! OHHH YESSS!  That is so exciting!  The individuals that are baptized are great members but from what I've seen, it's very easy for them to fall away.  Families on the other hand once they are baptized (which takes an added effort) are able to be very strong and it is hard for them to fall away.

As far as everything else, things are going great.  Mom, don't worry about me slowing down.  At the end of the runway, the planes are going the fastest.  But all that aside, I'm not even nearing the end of the runway I still have 7 months!!!!! Basta with talk like that!

That is crazy that they are going to add 2 new sets of elders to the ward!!!! Hopefully that will make it possible in a couple years for a branch in Trier!!! The same thing is going to happen in our mission.  Right now there are 85 Anziani and 20 Sorelle and by the end of summer we will have 125 Anziani and 55 Sorelle.  Things are going to EXPLODE!!!! It is crazy!

Well, that's all for this week, it would be longer but I was chatting quite a bit.... MOM! =P  Just a reminder: there are a couple people here who are waiting for you to accept them as my friends on facebook...
Have a wonderful week!!!!!
