So today is my last P-day! You know what that means... No more emails for two years I guess. I better make it a good one.
I'm glad to hear that all is well back at home. I miss you guys a lot. I miss playin' with ma sisters. I miss hangin' with ma brothers and tryin' to keep up with them. I miss watching Last Man on Earth with you Mama, and I miss goin' on runs with ya Dad. I had a good childhood, and I'm sad that those days are over. Nevertheless! (I'm trying to use more Bible language) I am sooooooo excited to go to Italy!!!! And more importantly, I am soooooooo excited to do the Lord's work. If you count the number of o's in each "so" you'll see which one is more important to me.
This week has flown by. At least the beginning of it was. Yesterday was long and kindof a hard day. We were so busy that I didn't have time to study the scriptures. I think that's why the rest of the day was a little off. The lessons we taught were kinda all over the place without direction, and I didn't really do as well in speaking the language as I could have. I don't know it was just a hard day. Sometime those happen. It's alright. Today was better because it was P-day. We went to the temple and did my last session for a couple years. I'm glad that we've been able to go every week. I always feel the Spirit in the celestial room.
Thanks for all the letters you guys have been sending me, they are really nice. I'm gonna try to write one today and send it before I leave the MTC. I've heard that the mailing system is really messed up in Italy, so it might be harder to do it there. Like for example if you send clothes, I think I'll get charged a lot of money. IDK.
The new Anziani e Sorelle came on Wednesday. There are 28 new Italian speaking missionaries so in total. So that is like 52 Italian speaking missionaries in the MTC! Usually we wouldn't overlap with the new ones like this, but transfers got a little messed up for some reason. But it's good because now the Italians rule the MTC. We have the biggest zone in the MTC maybe even in the world. It's really cool to see how much the Lord cares about Italy. A new temple, tanti nuovi missionari (many new missionaries) and the best red headed missionary the world will ever see! They won't know what hit them.
Io so che questa chiesa e vero. Ho visto l'amore di Dio nella mia vita ogni giorno sulla missione. (I know this Church is true. I see the love of God in my life every day on the mission.)
I think that's it for now here are some pictures for you. Ciao!
