To my sweet aunties!

Hello you beautiful women! With Thanksgiving coming up I just wanted to take some time to thank you all for everything you have done to support me these last 17 months. And quite honestly, these last 20 years!! Besides my mom of course, you are truly all my biggest cheerleaders and I have felt so much love from each of you. I can't tell you how many times I have received an email from one of you that was exactly what I needed to hear in that moment. I thank you for your genuine love and sensitiviy to the spirit. You are the seriously remarkable!
I read this talk that Papa gave in 1974 and this quote he said reminded me of you all, his precious daughters,
"The way we live is our clearest testimony, particularly when we are under strain and threat and still live righteously. Over time, it reflects what we really believe. If our actions are in harmony with what we say we believe, the Lord will use us and bear testimony through us in some way to every person we meet."
Not only are you so supportive and kind, but you are each so strong and faithful. You know who you are as a divine daughter of God and you have faith in Jesus Christ. You don't just have your testimonies but you live your testimonies. You strive to make him the center of your families lives. You are truly converted women in Christ. The way you live your testimonies has surely strengthened mine. I am so blessed to call you my family. I wish you all a wonderful week! Eat lots of malts at Little America for me & have a good talk it over:)

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!

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 ...
