Gesù e FIGHISSIMO

CIAO TUTTI!!!

Well this week went well!! 

Last pday was crazy!!! we finished emailing and then we went outside to catch  a bus home and it started POURING RAIN!!! I have NEVER seen it rain that hard in my life!!! We were stuck under this canopy thing and it was hailing and the street LITERALLY turned into a river (it was so strange because that morning it was super hot) Anyways.. so we needed to catch a bus home and it was starting to become pranzo time (from 1 to 4 even the biggest cities in italy die and everyone is inside. All stores are closed, and no busses come) So needless to say we HAD  to catch the bus but the bus stop was like 50 to 70 yards away. So we are sitting there watching the busses pass and trying to get up the courage to start running in the hail and then the hail stops... so we book it!! The sidewalk was already a river too at that point and the water went up to my ankles. So we are running and I couldn't see that the side walk ended and I ran right into the street (there werent any cars). The problem was that when I stepped off the sidewalk the water went up to my KNEES!!!! HAHAH I felt like I was swimming to the bus stop!!! Sorella Fossa was behind me laughing because she saw me fall into the huge river street thing. haha, anyway we got to the bus stop and by the time the bus came the storm had passed.... okay sorry that was long

This week was zone conference and it went pretty well. I had to give a training all by myself since there isn't another stl in my zone so that stinked.. it was about finding. Then I gave a training with the zone leaders about role plays. At the end we got yummy panzarotti!!!! (fried calzone) and faccacia and cherries!!!! so that was worth it!

We had a ward activity this week that one of our investigators and one of our less actives went to... so we went too. We went BOWLING!! It was so fun!! We bonded really well just having fun with the people we work with!! There was an arcade there and there was this crazy air hockey table that had over twenty pucks at a time... anyway super fun!! however... my bowling skills have gone down a bit... i got a score of 20. YIKES! oops. haha

Ok, Funny story!!! So yesterday in sacrament meeting Anziano Kiser comes up to me and asks if I would translate for a african lady because she wants to bear her testimony (so she would bear it in english and then I  would attempt to translate it into italian for the congregation.) Anyways, I dont know if many of you have heard a REAL African speak english.... but it was the funniest thing of my life!! She was screaming how sacrifices are of the devil and how she had been saved and...... it was the most interesting testimony I've ever heard. I had a hard time translating her testimony into Italian because half the time I had no idea what she was even talking about!!!! it was a pretty good moment. 

Anyway now for THE BEST PART!!! So a couple of months ago Sorella baker and I went to a little town called Troia and we did absolutely nothing (worst pday of my mission) We were leaving and it was raining and this nice lady gave us a ride to the bus stop and took us to the only grocery store that was open at that hour to buy something to eat on the way back. We talked to her about the gospel but she said she wasnt religious....etc. Anyway she called us Saturday and asked us for help translating something into english. So we met her at the church last night and helped her and after we watched a mormon message with her called "because Of Him" It's the best Mormon message I've ever seen and at the end she was BAWLING!!! She told us how she lost her Mom and she doesn't believe that she will see her again but she wants to believe. We bore our testimonies that we will see our loved ones again and she started crying more. We waited and she said... what do I have to do. I'll do it, but what do i need to do? AHHHHH SOOOO COOL!!!!!!!! It was the coolest first lesson I've ever had on my mission!!! So we talked to her for a bit more and then she said we could come to Troia whenever we wanted!! Ahhhh I'm soo excited!!! It was the COOLEST LESSON!!!! Oh, and then the best part is that after the video she is crying and its really quiet and we are waiting for her to say something... and the first thing she says is 'Gesù e fighissimo!!!' which means Jesus is freaking HOT! hahah so good!!! We were laughing about that for a while! 

Anyway love you all so much I LOVE MY MISSION!!!! Im enjoying these last couple of months I have and I'm relying on the Lord. I cant wait to see you all and remember that Jesus is so freaking cool! and that he can change lives!!!!  

Con tutto il mio cuore
