 Ciao Tutti!!                             3-3-2014



  Hows everything going?  Things are really good here!!  I will start with the work which is just incredible!!  We set a baptismal date this week and will set 2 more this next week with a couple who asked us to hurry up and come teach and baptize them because we were taking too long to get around to them because we found so many other people first!!  And the way things might turn out we might have one of those baptism days that makes it into the conference edition of the Liahona where 20 people get baptized on conference day!  So we are very happy here!!  Really starting to see all the fruits from the last couple of months, so anybody who thought we don't baptize in Italy, your wrong!!! haha
     Super cool thing happened this week, we got to go to Rome for a day because Elder Allen stopped by the mission and had a conference with the missionaries.  He had lots of cool updates on the temple and other things with the church here.  It was awesome because he tells it to ya strait and laid down the law, but he did it all through teaching doctrine and the spirit was so strong!  
     Everything about our work is super cool right now because the branch temple trip is coming up in a couple of months so we are helping our new converts get family names ready to take and we know that when the members get that spirit it is only going to help the branch and help our work, not to mention all those on the other side!  I am so grateful I have gotten to serve here, this area has changed my life, these people are incredible and it is a hard thing to explain how fast it happens, but when you truly seek to serve as Christ would, you build the strongest relationships. 
     Homework!  D&C 100, but focus on verses 3 and 4 (I think) I want to here about what yall think the "effectual door" is!  Love yall!!

Vi voglio bene!
