How is planning the wedding going? AH I WISH I WAS THERE. kasjdf. whatevs I'm doing something better. Keep me updated! I want to see more pictures of everything! AND MCKAY IS IN TROUBLE. HE NEVER WROTE ME FOR PERMISSION.  
 
Anyways...THIS WEEK...It was awesome! I'm so happy to be in Pescara again and I just love these people so much! Okay first off, Dintino family! The dad has a baptismal date on the 7th and he's working so hard to be ready and to quit smoking in time. Che bravo! This week I got to know the dad a little bit better and it's amazing how prepared he is. One he owes a music shop and has supplied ALL the churches in this part of Italy with pianos and gave the church a huge discount or something. He was telling us how his whole life he has been really upset and disappointed in the catholic church, he knows it's corrupted, and he was really sad that the truth has been lost. Then he started talking to Fratello Guisti (who happens to be our ward mission leader) about how he feels and Giusti was like..."uhh can I tell you about my church?!" And the rest is history. He believes everything and he loves everything about the church! He brought a friend to our last lesson and it was really cool because HE started teaching the lesson to his friend and testifying of it. Ah he's going to be the best member and bring so many other people to the truth. Our main goal right now is to get the whole family excited and baptized! The older son doesn't want anything to do with it, the 9 year old daughter doesn't quite understand and wants to go to the catholic church each week, but the 14 year old son seems kind of interested! 
 
Okay then there's Analia and her family! Analia is really progressing and reading the Book of Mormon. Although last time we went over there she read the story about Nefi killing Labano... (I forgot his his name in English) and then we had to answer all these questions about why God would do that, but at the end it ended up good and we talked a lot about the love of God. Also Saturday night she called us telling us that she was really sick, but feels like she needs to come to church anyway and asked if it would be okay if she came. She also said she talked to her companion and he wants to learn more about the church and wants to come to church too. We were like "WHAT?!" so surprised. But then the next day she decided that she was too sick to come so that didn't happen. But the miracle is that she WANTED to. Also, in church we had the singing primary program and it was the cutest thing ever and the spirit was so strong! So I'm sure Satan knew how great it would be and made her sick. Whatevers. 
There's two stories for this week! Now I got to go to Ortona to explore! Love you all! vi voglio bene!
