April 9, 2014

Ciao tutti!
Come state?  Well it was another good week!  Anziano Pinnock and I are focusing on becoming the best missionaries we can be this transfer!  We are speaking in Italian more often, we are being more obedient, and being more diligent!  There's always room for improvement and lots of time to do it.  We got really pumped up on the talks from General Conference.  They were great!  My favorite talk is from Elder Bednar about getting the new truck stuck, but being able to get out with a load.  It's amazing how we can learn the most amazing principles from the simple things from the world around us.  I learned from that talk that no matter how heavy our load, the Savior can make it lighter and will be there to help us bear it.  When things get tough, the weight we carry around is just giving us more traction, and the ability to move forward.

This week as we were going to get on a train to Pisa for General Conference, a man stopped us in the train station and asked us if we smoked.  I guess he was looking for a cigarette.  We told him no, of course, but then he preceded to ask who we were and what we do.  We explained and we led into the Restoration.  He turned out to be a strong believer in Christ.  We exchanged numbers and we hope to work with him more in the near future.

So last week we went to Lucca for P-Day.  It is a pretty city!  My favorite part of the city is a tower with trees on top!  We snapped some cool pictures from the top!

Well I love you all!  Thank you for your prayers and your love!  This is the work of the Lord!  Can't be stopped and every effort counts!  Ciao!
