Ciao tutti...
Well this week was just beautiful.... NOT. lets just say it was very interesting to say the least.. ill start with Wednesday
So wednesday we have correlation and one of the member missionaries said he was talking to one of our investigators (who I've been praying all transfer to accept our message!! she is so ready and so amazing i really just love her!!) and she told him that she didn't want to see us again and she didn't want to hear more.... :( but we will see. we still have to see her.
So thursday we go visit a contact/investigator and we do a little lesson with her then we had off to go home. so Catania is HUGE and to get anywhere it takes at least an hour and a half.. so we took three busses and then walked for half an hour. (i had run out of money so i couldn't buy water so i just felt dead and dehydrated.. we take an hour for lunch and then go back out again cause we had our interviews with president waddoups. So i check my bag to see if i brought my planner and I'm like HOLLY CRAP MY WALLETS NOT HERE!!! but we didn't have time to go back to the house to see if it was there so we had to wait till after all of our interviews 6 bus rides and a long walk back to the house to find that it wasn't there :( so then the office told me to call and get my cards cancelled... anyway. I wasn't super upset that my wallet was stolen i was just like... die whatever... then we go out to go use the pay phone so i could call you guys and my shoes breaks..... so that was fun i looked like a hobo with no shoes and putting pennies into the stupid pay phone hahaha
The cutest part though is that the other sorelle come home and THEY BOUGHT ME SHOES!!!! how cute is that! they are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so thursday i run out of money. get my wallet stolen. and my shoes break.(they only got my temple recommend cause all my money was gone haha)
Friday we travel to siracusa which is BEAUTIFUL|!!!! its where paul landed after being stranded in malta. he taught the gospel in these cool rock temples that we found. so ZONE CONF is always the best!! loved it! except during the conference sorella cano gets up to give her birth testimony and I'm like OHHH i need to film this so i get my camera and it wont turn on.... long story short something happened to my camera and ITS DESTROYED!!!!!! I don't know what happened cause it was in its case but..... its utterly destroyed.. so that one was a little sad. then that night they had all the sisters sleeping in there apartment and i slept on the floor and it was so hot that i never actually fell asleep. :(
Saturday, we had a baptism!!! it was the elders and the kid is 18 and is american but lives on the army base here. HE IS SOOO COOL!!! he was searching mormon.org one day decided he was going to be baptized. talked to online missionaries in england and then they contacted us. (the anziani) anyway he is AWESOME! sorella furlanich asked hime if he was excited to be baptized and he says .. yeah but I'm more excited to go to the temple hahahah
so during his baptism... there were two italians and then a lot of the members from the branch at the base. the closing hymn we sing "How great thou art" and the one italian lady is singing opera style and she is like crying and all of us are trying to keep cool and not laugh.. then the other italian is sitting next to me and sorella furlanich and he is singing like this (HoW GrEAt THou ArT ) i don't know if you understand that but his voice did that... and he sounded really nasally. and he was super quite so no one else could here him but furlanich and i. then the worst part is that instead of "art" he was saying "fart" hhahahahahaha we were dying i was in tears!!! hahaha how great though fart hahah so ooooo good!!! the baptism was the most spiritual that I've ever been too. sooo amazing!!
Then sunday we go to a members house and they feed us... then there is a baptism of three little girls in the ward. the chapel WAS PACKED!!!! and during the baptism the guy who has the talk on the spirit instead decides to be a comedian and tells two stories about one, a cat peeing in his hat and then him putting it on his head, and then a story of what happened while he was in the bathroom taking a dump...... how it related to the spirit.. i do not know.
then the ward mission leader gets up (who does NOT understand social Qs) and starts talking and in the middle this girl stands up AND STARTS THROWING UP!! And she bends over and is just puking and she is wearing the shortest dress ever and.... lets just say everyone saw her weggie. it was sooooo sad!!! AND FRATELLO BRUNO JUST KEPT TALKING!!!!!!!!!!! then one of the little girls when she was baptized her legs came flying up out of the water and she was wearing a dress (it reminded me of my baptism) then after the baptism we go to ANOTHER meal appointment (i literally had a food baby!!)
So that is what happened.......... everything that could possibly go wrong went wrong.... but I'm still smiling and just laughing through it cause when life gives you lemons you got to make lemonade... (even though i don't have money to buy lemons...)
Well i love you all so much!!!! I cried when i saw the picture you sent me!! and mom i cant believe you actually make shirts that said i love paula HAHAHAH i literally cried!!!!!! ill show you all next week what I'm doing with the photo!!! LOVE YOU!!!!!!
Love sorella felice
