Good morning!!

     How is everything back in the states?  Everything is super good here and we are staying very busy and have a lot to do in the coming weeks as well.  This week has been awesome!  One of the coolest parts was when one of our investigators came to church yesterday in a super nice suit!!  And he has to drive an hour to get here!  It is amazing how so many times we don't have to say anything, but the spirit begins to work inside people and that is when real change occurs.  I am so happy to be apart of this great work!
     This week we did a scambio in Ostia with Anziano Baggaley and Zemp, and it was a lot of fun.  Anziano Zemp and I taught a older Italian man who seriously looks like a carbon copy of Mario, and guess what his name is... Mario!  We talked with him for about an hour and got about 2 sentences in! haha I am going to miss these people so much!!  
     I got may haircut (professionally) for only the second time since I have been in Italy, and it looks WAY better than the first!  We were able to have a great FHE with our investigators at the bishop's house, talked about the Restoration, and it made so much sense to him! Wahoo!  
     Yesterday we had a ward lunch after church, it was good, but it is always an interesting situation when the missionaries bring more food than everybody else combined! haha  It was a lot of fun, transfer calls are this next Saturday, so we will then know my final resting place, everybody pray for Malta!!!  Love y'all so much and have a great week!!

It's June!!    6-2-14   



  WOW!!!  Its is summer time!!  I don't have a lot of time today but some highlights from this week is we set 3 baptismal dates, we are super excited!!  Got to meet some really cool people, yesturday in church there were almost as many non members than members!  It was so cool!!!  Transfers are in about 18 days and then we will find out what my final resting place in the mission will be!  Just wanted to say that I love this work, and love these people!!  
     My invite for this week is to read Alma 34: 17-28, think about your prayers and then read "Its a miracle" by Neil L. Anderson from the April 2013 conference, and then follow his invite!  Love y'all so much!  And have a great week!!

VVB!
