The Rains Down in Africa!!

Ciao tutti!!!

Well this week was good. It has been very rainy here!! Every morning we wake up to a beautiful day and we go out running. In the afternoon we eat on our balcony and bathe in the sun and then we go out to do missionary work and BAM its raining cats on dogs!!! literally, it's perfect timing! Every day at the same time it rains and IT RAINS HARD!!!!! Well, thats it about the weather.

This week we threw a surprise party for one of the members in our ward. We asked if she could come to the church to help us in Mirianas lesson (one of our investigators) That is how we got her to come over. There wasn't really a lesson. hahah. So ALL the members are at the church and we are all waiting for this girl to show up, and suddenly, we see someone so we all scream HIDE HIDE!!!! Well it wasn't just Miriana but there was someone with her. So everyone gathers by the enterence-foyer place to see who it was. Miriana was with her boyfriend and all of us are sitting in the entrance watching and they say good bye and walk away and then out of NOWHERE her boyfriend runs back and plants one on her!!!! haha there they were just kissing goodbye for a while and we are all inside watching…yikes! hahhaha AWKWARD! When Miriana walked in all the members where like YEAH MIRIANA hahah sooooo awkward!!!! but sooo hilarious!!! There was probably a good 25 of us that saw it. 

This week we went down to Bari to have our Zone Conference and it went really well. Sorella Stephens and I did our training on fun and creative finding ideas. That was really fun!!!!! Like drawing the plan of salvation in chalk in the middle of a huge piazza or doing shoe shining in the park for service.... etc. It was way fun and we had fun presenting it. Sorella Stephens is the best!!! It was way nice to go down there and talk to her! 

Oh I found a pasticceria this week that had cannolis so I ate some of those... 

We have this new investigator that is a beautician and this week we stopped by her work to say hi and ask how she was doing and PLUCKED OUR EYEBROWS FOR FREE!!!! haha! We walked in and she was like who does your eyebrows and I was like "me" and she was like "I can tell." HA! Then she told baker that hers hadn't been touched in a while so she plucked our eyebrows!! hahah It was very relaxing and I was so happy to get them done!!!! 

Our work still isn't doing so well. None of our investigators have been able to see us this week. (well actually for the past 3 weeks) We've been doing a lot of finding but since its kind of a festa season here in Italy no one has been out so we haven't had much success in finding. Which has been hard! Sorella Baker and I have just been stressed out of our minds the last three weeks. But I guess we will get through it some how.

Anyway, I love you all so much!! I miss you a ton and I'm so excited to see you all for mothers day!!!! we are just going to party it up on that skype call hah.
con tutto il mio cuore.
Sorella Felice
