Thursday- We saw Sorella Pelaia in Marina di Pisa. We
taught her about the importance of the sacrament and how it can give us
strength and protect us from temptation throughout the week. Then we had
another family night and it was a good turnout and everyone had fun!
Friday- There was another train strike so that really
changed our plans for the day. We visited Sorella Carpita with her lifetime
friend Sorella Mariani and she really loved that. Then we did some finding and
got the weekly planning done! It's getting to be so hot. I've grown used to the
fact that I'm just always sticky haha. It was Nonna's birthday so we stopped
and wished her happy birthday!
Saturday- We went to a wedding at the church and passed
by a potential investigator. We saw Sorella Parini today and Flora. There was a
festival again called "Gioca del Punte". It's about a contest between
the two sides of Pisa. One side of the river against the other. We were able to
see the parade from Flora’s apartment and so that was really cool!
Sunday- Church was so good! Sacrament is amazing I'm
so grateful that I have that one hour of Sacrament meeting each week to think
of the promises I have made with God and how I can be better this next week! Then
we taught Ersi and Eni. We had a little fun with them and did make up. Haha
this was unusual for me because usually it's my sisters or nieces doing make up
on me so doing it on someone else was a struggle. We had fun though and laughed
when Sorella Visconti or I messed up with their make up.
Monday- District meeting was really good! Later that
day we read the Book of Mormon with Ersi and Eni and did finding. While finding
we met a lady with 3 kids. We taught her a little lesson but as we were talking
to her she told us her kids spoke 4 languages! Talk about feeling underachieved
haha.
Tuesday- The Di Ruscio's had us over for lunch and it
was delicious as always! Then we taught Thomas the Restoration. It went really
well and he had more great questions! We will pass him over to the Pisa Anziani
(Elders) so they can continue teaching him. We had English class which was really
fun. We taught the advanced class this time so it was mostly just having
conversations and teaching new vocabulary.
"God knows that some of the greatest souls who
have ever lived are those who will never appear in the chronicles of history.
They are the blessed, humble souls who emulate the Savior’s example and spend
the days of their lives doing good." Sometimes it seems that we can never
do enough. It's in our everyday effort to do good and follow the Savior that we
can truly make a difference in not only our lives, but the lives of others. Our
names might not be known everywhere, but we will know that Christ's name is written
on our heart.
Vi voglio tanto bene!
We went to the top of the Pisa Tower and into the Cathedral
