Catania…. continued

Ciao Tutti!
Well this week not a lot happened....
ok really I'm just looking in my planner and really NOTHING excited happened. We've just been visiting our homies here in catania and teaching the gospel...
OH DUH! transfer calls came and IM STAYING IN CATANIA WITH CANO TO DIE wahooo. however the worst part is that they are blowing out the other sisters. Sorella stephens is going to rome to train (which i am really happy about cause she hasnt been able to see rome and she has been in the south her whole mission so it should be super fun for her to die up there. ) and then sorella furlanich died this week... :( ...(ok when someone finishes there mission we use the term to die.) so me and cano will be all alone here in this HUGE city!!!!! Besides the two elders. (the crazy part is that sassari has 8 missionaries and its a tiny tiny tiny city that used to only have one set of elders there, and catania is a HUGE HUGE HUGE city that used to be a MISSION!!! and now there are only four missionaries here. However the sisters were blown out cause the ward doesn't deserve 6 missionaries. no one helps the missionaries here and so pres. decided to take them out, which is super sad. 
Also i have to defend myself all alone against the mother cockroaches!!!!!! this morning we found one that i killed that its antennas were like 4 inches long!!!! AHHHH so gross!!! we all woke up at five cause the sisters had to get to the airport to fly to rome to die and sorella stephens just starts screaming and all of us are up on chairs just screaming at 5 in the morning trying to figure out how to kill this beast of a cockroach.... (wow my adventures here are sooooo exciting) 
This week we did a lesson with this less active family (they are my first less active family that i really believe they are doing the best they can and they literally cant get to church. i love them so much!!! its a single mom with two little girls... ahhhh i love them!!! but we did this lesson with them this week where we made a cake and all the "ingredients" were the things we need in our life like flour = prayer.... etc.. and the little girl who is nine came up to me and gave me the biggest hug after and told me that she loved the church!!!!!!!!!! it was soooooo cute!!! and she isn't baptized but she wants to really bad but she cant :( anyway that was fun!
This week one of your simps dropped us (it happens super often but this is one I've praying for and i had a lot of faith and hope that she was going to get baptized.) anyway we called her and she was like i don't want to learn about the gospel anymore sorry. and we asked her if we could at least go and get a gelato with her, saying we really just want to be friends (cause that is what she needs. she is super depressed and never leaves her house and never hangs out with people) and she told us that she didn't want to do that.... it was really sad... and then today we saw her on the bus and she SPRINTED off!!! AGHHHHHHHHHHHH i don't understand!!!!!!!!!!! Its sucks when you know how to help someone and they wont let you!!! and I'm devastated that she wants to remain in this state of depression.... :( 
Yesterday we ate dinner with an american family that works on the military base here in catania and they made us chicken enchiladas!!!!! wahooo soo good AND REFRIED BEANS!!!!! and dried mango and a betty crocker chocolate cake.... ahhhh troppo americano!!!! 
anyway really thats all that has happened love you so much!!!! have a great week
