Buona Pasqua!
(Happy Easter!)
Buona Pasqua a tutti!! Spero che oggi è stato veramente bello, qua
lo è stato. Church was packed with investigators and visiting families,
the 5th week training was on the priesthood in the home (they used those new
videos that the church came out with), and there were some really great talks
in Sacrament meeting. Then later tonight we are going to a new converts
house for Easter dinner.
This week has been very tiring and time is moving faster than
ever!!! Basically as assistants we are the problem solvers and taxi
drivers of the mission. Plus we have zone conferences to do and then
we deliver materials and do exchanges where they are needed.
This week we've been to the airport 8 times, three of which
were before 0630. Then we went to Napoli for zone conference, and for 3
nights we slept in the mission home. Whew! Then there’s the office
work and the other little errands that we have to run! Mamma Mia! Siamo
impegnatissssimi! This next week should be pretty fun, I'm going to
Sardegna with President for zone conference, we have a new missionary coming
in, we're going to Napoli to drop off copies of the Book of Mormon at the
Marriott there, we have the Roma zone conference, for which the Malta
missionaries and the senior couple are coming up. And this is
all before Friday. It's going to be a good week.
My companion doesn't know the Ramstein Linda Longhurst but he does
have an aunt who has the same name, ha-ha!
How's Abby doing? When is she planning on going to the temple? I
recommend going a.s.a.p, that way while she's in Utah she can go often. That
is one of the things that I wish I had done; gone to the temple more before the
mission training center.
One of the things that I learned this week was from President Kelly.
In EVERY decision that he makes he 1) prays and 2) he sticks as close as
possible to what the scriptures/leaders/ and manuals say. That really
is righteous leadership; leaders have to be obedient as well and
as soon as that goes away, it becomes unrighteous dominion.
There's another things Pres. said "the quest for perfection is
the enemy of the good” It’s definitely something to search for and aim for but
if we become obsessed with it, it really does become an enemy of the good.
On Tuesday I’ll be in Sardegna so if you could sign me up
for classes it would be wonderful!!!
Thanks so much you all are great!!!
