I
am writing you from Arezzo this week - the exact place that the famous
film "Life is Beautiful" was filmed. Can I tell you how much I love
this land. I have seriously given my heart to this country. Alright
let's jump into business. First, my mission mom is home now and it's a
little weird that my group is now the oldest in the mission. Gulp. But
it is also been an wonderful week in the sense of working. We have not
stopped running and most of the time, I am in a sure panic because there
is not enough time for everything I want to do but I LOVE IT. Working
hard is the only way to finish!
So Sorella Bennett and I planned a "girl's night"
for all our girl GANS. I have missed these nights with my own sisters
and besties so we thought it would be a good way to bring us all closer
together. We all met at Karen Perez's house and we did each other's
hair, makeup, nails, ate and enjoyed being girls. Sorella Hoffman and I
shared a message about being Woman of Christ and it could not have gone
better. The Spirit was so strong and we testified of own our unique and
vastly important role as woman. It was a wonderful night and our
relationships and testimonies were deepened.
We also had a ward FHE put on by yours truly.
President Dibb once said, "i like to party" so I figured we might as
well party in Pisa! So I filled up 100 water ballons and we played some
water games as a family. Except no one told me Italians don't really
like getting their close wet. Oops. Best moment of the day, I nailed an
elder 3 times in a row with waterballons. Dead chest. Fratello Marino
asked me why I could throw like that and I said, "My daddy taught me and
I have 2 brothers." All the members were proud of me. Look Mom, I cant
play the piano every week when asked but I can throw waterballoons. :)
Scripture of the week Luke 19: 10"For
the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost." even
Jesus had to do finding work! Not all the people found him or came to
him. He hit the streets in search for the elect! Strada just got
easier.
Well, i am off! Vi amo tutti! Auguri a Richard and Tammy for 5 years of marriage! and to Bubbus for 28 years of life!
