Week 16: the shortest email you've ever seen:)

-

Ciao! This is gonna be speedy quick, but here are some highlights from the week!


- Went on exchanges and it was a blast! I got to be with my bestie Sister Scott and we went to this place called "Marco's Hot Dogs and Tacos." Sounds nasty but I promise it's the best thing you'll ever eat here in Longmont! 
- Had a great lesson with Henry and Zuriko! We taught the Plan of Salvation and it was so amazing to see Henry's eyes light up when we talked about being sealed to our families:) I'm so excited for their family to be brought into the gospel.
- Spent 2 HOURS packing China for an old man in our ward who is moving. Lol he kept bringing out more and more boxes and we just kept bubble wrapping 
- I did language study with Sorella Castallano and Anziano Toone (2 missionaries here in FOCO who are supposed to go to Italy). It's so fun getting to actually speak with people who can understand me and respond back!
- Set an all time record and made it from the apartment to the church in 19 minutes! Sister Spendlove is way too fast for me to keep up with...
- I cannot wait for this weekeend--General Conference and Maliana's baptism!! I've never been so excited 💙

Do me a favor and go read Alma 34! It's such a great chapter-all about the Atonement, faith, prayer and our purpose here on earth. 

Thanks for all the love and support! Ti amo tanto💫

Ciao a tuttiiii!! Buon Natale! Merry Christmas:) i hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with your families! I had a great Christmas here in Trieste! It was honestly everything I ever hoped it would be and the awesome members made me feel completely at home! Something really cool I got to do on Christmas morning was go to catholic mass! We went with one of our investigators. We made a deal with him to do a chiesa scambio (church swap) so we would go to his church on saturday and he would come to ours on sunday! The mass was awesome! Very different, but still very spiritual. I think the best part was that I got to be in the shoes of the investigator, I got to feel how they might feel walking into a new and strange environment. I have come to gain a lot of respect and understanding for the Catholics here in Italy. It's been beautiful to learn more about them because in return, they are so more willing to learn about us! And we truly aren't as different as we might think. I find ...

Ciaooo amici miei!! This last week has been so full of miracles I can't even begin to count. The Lord is truly blessing this city and preparing people to accept the gospel! Oh how wonderful it's been! Here's a little rundown: This whole transfer we have been praying & fasting & working to receive a golden referral, and this week we ended up getting UN SACCO (a ton)!! - our recent convert Tani started sharing the gospel with his 16 year old son and now he wants to meet with us and start coming to church! - our awesome nonna (grandma) of the ward introduced us to her friend who introduced us to her sister & nephew and we had an AMAZING Restoration lesson with all 3 of them:) we gifted them each a book of Mormon and they were so excited! Very promising! - this cool 18 year-old member who's preparing for a mission wants us to teach his girlfriend with him! So awesome:) "For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles; and I will show unto the world that I ...

Ciaooo a tutti!! Welcome back. This was probably one of my favorite weeks on the mission! I've never been so tired but happy at the same time HAH. Things are super bene! • we have been finding the coolest, most prepared, young people! Chiara & Aaron we met this week. It's so fun to teach them because I literally feel like I'm teaching myself! My favorite thing ever was seeing their faces just light up as we gave them a Book of Mormon and testified of the power found within the pages. They are both searching for something more in life and I'm so grateful God let our paths cross! • this week I got to go to 2 Zone Conferences! One was in Florence. Yes you read that right. I'm literally living a dream! 😅 We gave a training with the ZLs about building our discipleship. Fun fact for my FOCO friends lol Elder Toone is the ZL and it's a blast. THEN, 2 days later we went to Pordenone for our other zone conference and trained about perspective & purpose. So much ...
