Buongiorno cari miei!
Well this week was pretty great! My companion and i were
able to meet twice with our investigator lukebana and teach him some really
great lessons on the life of christ and his teachings and how proper authority
is so important when we do ordinances like baptism. He actually is not baptized
in any church but he has now understood the importance of doing so and is
really praying hard to know if it is the right thing to do. I promised him that
i am sure he will recieve an answer from God if he prays with a sincere heart
and full faith that God will answer him. The coolest thing about him is that
every time after we finish a lesson with him he will call or text us letting us
know how greatful he is for the joyfull lessons that we bring him. He is such a
sincere guy and is so respectful and nice, just a really genuine guy :) Other
than lukebana we are yet to have any really in depth lessons with other people,
people here are a little more closed than passed cities in which i served but
thats always ok because miracles are still happening in other places... like
TORINO!
So i am writing mine and anziano ferradini's recent convert,
Barbara, that we baptized back at Torino and she is doing SOOO GREAT! 1) The
triple combination that we had made for her with genuine leather and her name
on the front finally got finished and she was so emotional about it and was so
happy and grateful :). 2) She got a calling in church to be the head of the
visiting teaching and she makes sure everyone is passing by their families and
what not and she is sooo stoked and she said it made her feel very proud and good
that bishop had so much faith in her to give her a calling haha which is way
cool. 3) This monday before going to a lesson with the new missionaries that
took over my spot after we left she asked her friend to give her a ride because
it was raining and she didnt feel like going alone. When they got to the church
for the appointment she thought that her friend would just wait in the lobby
until they had finished but instead she decided to join barbara and the Anziani
in the lesson! They watched the restauration film and at the end barbara's
friend couldn't stop crying and really felt the spirit. She then said that she
would love to come back again and listen to another one of their messages!!!!
member missionary work already from a new convert!!!! so cool :) 4) Barbara has
been taking the temple class lessons in church and got an interview with the
bishop there and he said she is worthy to enter the temple and she will be
going with her 8 year-old son AND her non-member husband who has been so very
supportive of her this entire time. The is SOOOOO EXCITED to go to the temple
and she just cant get over how much she feels the love of Gad in her life and
how blessed she feels to be a member of this church. SHE IS THE BEST!!!!!
Well pretty awesome right?! i love barbara she is such an
amazing person and i am so grateful to have had the opportunity to know and
help her along this path to salvation :)
Well that is pretty much it for the week, today for p-day we
are going to the Ducati factory here in Bologna and taking a tour inside of it
so that will be pretty fun :) Hope to hear from you next week, love you ciao!!
