It's going pretty well here in Pesaro. The best thing is that I'm officially not a greenie anymore!!!! I'm not even the youngest one in my district anymore because Anziano Calton is training. His greenie did have some problems with his visa because things got messed up. Anyways so for the last couple of days I have been in a trio with Hepner and Calton and we have been covering both Ancona and Pesaro. It's been crazy because we went back and forth like 4 times and it's an hour trip. Ancona has a car though so that was nice. And also it's fun living in three.
This week I kind of had a couple different experiences with other religions. I gave a Book of Mormon to a lady and then she told me that she was Buddhist, so we talked a little bit about her religion and my religion and it was cool. Also the other day we went to this center for workers at the mensa of Ancona which we volunteer at. Before the dinner there we found out that there was a mass so we went to it of course. I actually really enjoyed what the Priest had to say. He spoke about peace and it was really profound. It was just cool to see the merit that all religions have.
Anziano Hepner is a cool dude. He's really funny and seems like he wants to work hard this transfer which is good. He actually weirdly reminds me of Nathan. It's strange.
Our new convert sent us a message the other day saying that he has re-thought his baptism and wants a little bit of time to be left alone to reflect. So that was pretty sad. I just told him that we all love him and told him not to distance himself from God. Other than that there's nothing we can do. We got the baptism though so that's the important thing. I'm kiiiiiidiing.
I have a lot of goals for this transfer. One is to visit less actives more because there are a ton of them and they need us. I just hope that we can bring at least someone back to the gregge and that they can stay there. Italians are really bad about coming to church. It's weird because we will meet with them and they're super open and super spiritual but then if anything inconviniences them they dip real quick. (I know that my spelling is wafle).
The other goal I have is to learn how to cook better instead of just eating pasta everyday haha. I'm gonna try to branch out more so any recipes that are easy and good are always welcome.
Anyways I think that's it for this week. I love you guys! Ciao.
