Ragusa Jungle

This week went really well. We had Samuele and Giuseppe both do baptismal interviews and they both passed! Giuseppe wants to wait a little bit though just to strengthen his testimony and bishop wants to hold off on Samuele and his baptism for a little while so will keep meeting with him. He has missed a bunch of church because he works but he loves us and wants to get baptized. This week he asked us if he can serve a mission and be my companion. It was the coolest thing ever to have an investigator say that and it makes me want to work even harder to stay worthy of friendships with people like Samuele.

Another cool thing this week was Marco getting the aaronic priesthood in church. He's going to bless his family so much now that he can act as a representative of Christ and pass the sacrament. Ha we went to teach Carmelo this week at his house (another one of our swag investigators) and he had a lady there house sitting and we had planned to teach the law of chastity and I wasn't sure if we were still going to teach the same lesson but anz Rusch just went right into it. Ha she liked it and he is really progressing and it's probably good his 10 year old son Matteo wasn't there.

Today we went exploring in the Ragusa jungle that's in the middle of our city and we found this random restaurant that's actually really nice. The jungle is really cool and has a bunch of cave dwellings that are pretty sweet. My camera has been getting fixed though so I wasn't able to get any cool pictures but will see what the iPad can do. Other then that we have been working hard and are excited for the new people we have been meeting.
Vi voglio bene!
