This week was another good one. So to start off, Marco
passed his bap interview!!!! so we will finally have him baptized after like 5
years of investigating the church. It'll have to be on jan 2 though because he
has work this week and then christmas next week. It's super cool to finally
have him at this point though. We are going to work hard with him these next
couple weeks so that he can stay worthy and be ready to be a member. Its really
cool to see how the gospel has really changed his life, he used to want to
leave his family and divorce his wife but we worked with him a lot and then he
started saying he would wait tell the kids grow up then divorce his wife. And
now he says he has totally lost the desire to leave his family which is super
cool. The gospel has really blessed his family.
A lot of our other simps aren't making as much progress like
giuseppe and samuele. They haven't come to church so they don't receive those
same blessings as they could just from coming to an hour of sacrament meeting.
Will work on helping them get there though. We did a lot of finding this past
week and have been showing christmas videos to people. Most of the time people
don't want to watch the christmas videos or really talk with us for that matter
haha. But that just means we don't have to give all our time to people who
aren't ready for the gospel. Speaking only italian throughout the whole week
was also really fun, we had a new sister come in and she thought that anziano
rusch and I didn't know how to speak english which was kinda funny.
There was a couple from english course who I have been
wanting to start teaching and we actually found their house going around doing
casa a casa ha and now they are interested in learning a little bit more about
the gospel so that should be wonderful. Christmas is right around the corner
here and everyone is excited. In Italy they have parties like every week for
different people so there should be no shortage of fun here until the new year.
I hope everyone is doing well and remember christ is the reason for the season.
Have a very merry christmas!
Vi Voglio bene! Buon Natale!
