This week was pretty good! One time this week while we
were riding our bikes Sorella Visconti lost her shoe in the street. Haha. There
weren't any cars just some observers who were laughing as she went to go grab
her shoe again. I was laughing pretty hard too!
Something weird and random is that they have mint
Popsicles here. In a box of Popsicles, the green is always mint. It's not gross
but it's just different.
On Saturday, we got our call for transfers. We were actually
at Nonna's when we got it. President Allen called and I was too nervous to
answer so I threw the phone on the couch so Sorella Visconti would have to. I'm
glad she puts up with me haha. When the president calls it's usually because
you're getting a new assignment like training, Sister Training Leader, or
something like that. Sorella Visconti is going to Bologna to be an STL and I
will receive a new companion in Pisa. Her name is Sorella Rosano and she's
Italian. I'm super excited and I just hope she has the patience to put up with
me. Also, to help me with the Italian. I'm excited that she will be Italian
because it going to help me so much!
Then this week we finally met Adelissia. Her
daughter's family just moved in with her from Brazil. They are such a beautiful
family. I loved meeting them. Kenni (Adelissia's daughter) was so sweet. She made
us coffee and I felt so bad to tell her no. But we ate other snacks instead.
Their faith is really strong and I can't wait to see them again. They made us
feel so welcome and Kenni is amazing. She has a very strong belief in Jesus
Christ.
Mandy is another one of our investigators. She's an
artist and so innovative. I love it. She's super sensitive to the Spirit and
she's searching for the truth. We met her through English class and only this
week have we been able to really teach her.
"Remember, no one can reach upward on your
behalf. Only your faith and prayers will cause you to lift yourself and have
the mighty change of heart. Only your resolve to be obedient can change your
life. Because of the Savior’s atoning sacrifice for you, the power is in you.
You have your agency, you have strong testimonies if you are obedient, and you
can follow the Spirit that guides you."
Sometimes we just expect change. In reality change
only happens through action. We need to help lift ourselves to the person we
need to be and have that determination for ourselves.
I love you all!
My favorite is the elder is the back with the ball in
his shirt. Lol.
