Week 48

Hey Famiglia, 

How are you?  I hope all is well and I hope you guys know how much I love you and miss you.  But not too much cuz I'm not trunky  just yet.

So I might be a little short on time today.  We are going to San Marino.  It's the first time I've been there in a long long.  It should be fun.  I'll send some pictures.  

Things are going well here.  We just had Zone conference and interviews yesterday and It was really cool.  I really like those meetings they are always spiritually edifying.  

Then after the meeting I had an interview with President Browning.  He is a great man.  He seemed a little stressed though.  It must be really hard to run a mission.  Especially because lately there have been a lot of problems with visa waiters and greenies coming in halfway through the transfer.  I did tell me that they have 13 greenies coming in the next transfer and asked me if I was ready to train if needed.  

He also asked me a bunch about Cuneo because Anziano Ruiz is gonna die next transfer and so for the Branch Presidency there it needs to either be an Italian there or a new missionary.  President asked me to give HIM advice about what to do if he needed to put a new missionary as Branch President, or if the stake should choose an Italian member.  He's deciding weather or not he should keep missionaries in there as the Branch leadership.  So yeah I'm basically running the mission.  But no for reals for reals I need to pray about that and talk to the Mission President about it.

The rest of the week went really well.  We had another lesson with Ch... and the spirit was soooo strong  Actually it ws kind of a miracle that we were able to see her because we heard during the week that she had gone to Germany.  But then she just showed up in church because apparently she was stopped at the boarder and there was a problem with her documents or something.  She was pretty bumbed about that.  But her brother was able to testify in out lesson and he said, "she does not undastand that God send her back to Italy"  Then we talked a lot about prayer and how she can  recognize her answers.  At the end we asked her if the knew the Book of Mormon was true, she said yes.  Then we asked her if she knew that Joseph Smith was a prophet and she said yes.  and then Anziano Moss was about to smash her with that Bap invite and she interupted him to ask why Joseph Smith was not talked about in the bible.  🤦‍♂️

So yeah we explained that and then we had to go per forza because he had to catch our train.  Kinda sad.  But at least we know that critical information and maybe next time we will challenge her to be baptized.

Other than that I can't really think of stuffs that happened.  I hope all of you are doing good and I love you all so so so much.  

Ciao!
