It still feels really weird to write 2014! So this past week has been a really good week! It started off pretty interesting when we locked our keys inside of our house and house to make a trek out to a members house to get them, which ended up taking all night!! haha our area is very very large!! Just to put it into perspective, to go from one end of our area to the other, takes about 4 hours! Good news was we ended up meeting a guy who we were able to teach!
Tuesday was different because President Waddoups and the assistants came down and so I got to do a scambio with Anziano Da Ponte (from Moses Lake). We went and taught a new convert lesson to Destiny and it was incredible, there are just certain people who you can teach really well with and the spirit is always so strong! Wednesday was Zone Conference which was good as normal, feel like I have had my share of them from doing 8 every transfer for 4 transfers! haha But they are always spiritually uplifting!
After Zone Conference we headed out to an American families house for dinner. And they made us ribs!!! Probably the best meal I have had in Italy ;). haha We read about when Nephi breaks his bow and had one of the best member lessons I have ever had with anybody! Thursday we taught Alex, who has a baptismal date for Feb. 8, and things are looking good for that!
Thursday night, since we work as part time translators here, we went to a meeting with the branch presidency and primary presidency, and to say the least it was interesting!! haha Friday, we got to go up to Mondragone, which is very far away but we have some families that live there. We went and helped with home teaching and visited a few people out there, is was good to show them we are still thinking about them even though they are so far!
Seems like our week was full of treks! Because Friday we went out to see Asante, who is a new convert preparing to receive the priesthood. And we took a bus, then ended up walking about an hour to get to him. And he should be receiving the Aaronic Priesthood next week!! Then we went out to see an American less active member named Randall Lott. And he was baptized when he was 10 and then went in active, and we committed him this week to take all the missionary lessons! So that will be cool!!
Sunday was a normal Sunday, we had a lesson with Destiny and missionary coordination. And that's about it, love y'all and hope your week is good!!!
Vi voglio bene!!
