Alessio!

We had an incredible week and Alessio's baptism went really well. He did really solid leading up to it and the spirit was really strong at the ceremony. Lots of other investigators came to watch as well and everyone seems to be really excited about Cagliari and the potential it has. At church on Sunday we also had one of the best testimony meetings I've ever seen. We challenged Roberto to bare his testimony and he did a marvelous job and it sounds like he might be closer to getting a date set for his wedding.
Letizia also made it out to the baptism and she really enjoyed the whole experience. She thought she might have some trouble getting all the way under the water when she gets baptized but then her husband Maurizio, whose getting reactivated, said "ci penso io" which means I'll handle it ha it was a cool miracle. Edoardo also came and he is determined to quit smoking so he can start to progress as well. He's a funny guy and we're excited for him.
In sports news the Americans almost beat the Italians this week in calcio, Alessio was just too good for us on the day of his baptism. We also went to a football practice for the American football team of Cagliari haha and we've been offered spots on the team. The coach didn't seem to notice us trying to pick up his players as new investigators so will probably go back. We visited Sassari for their district meeting and it was really good. It's been allttle bit rainy these past couple days which has been a nice change.
Vi voglio bene!
