Busy Week and Christmas Fun.

Wow so many events happened this week!

-Anyway I am way excited for Christmas here! It will be sad not to be home, but the ward here has given us so much stuff and has filled up our schedules with meals. It's going to be so awesome and I'm going to get so fat--of really great Italian food! 

I love oranges!

-This week we got to go Caroling! Which was awesome and a ton of people came up and asked who we were. 

-Okay for my whole mission I have been trying to find some service to do...but I can never really find any! No one wants help. BUT this week one of the neighbors invited us over to help them with their ceiling. So I stood on a tall latter and nailed the ceiling...and I did I good job. You should be proud, dad. 

-This week we had an English course party and it was a huge success! We had a ton of members and students come and they all had so much fun together! I have a feeling that soon some of our students are going to become investigators!

-Sassari put on a religion conference thing this week where they invited a few religions to come and speak and tell how they are helping their youth. We had one of our members speak and told about missionaries. It was so awesome to be one of those missionaries that he talked about and have some people come up to us after and ask in amazement why we left our families and homes to do that. Well let me tell you... :)

-I LOVE SASSARI!!! It is so awesome being here. It's not too cold and there's no snow (which I'm kind of a little sad about but that's better for finding so I'm happy). This city is not too big...but it has parties and festivals and street markets every single night! We've seen bands walking through the streets, huge concerts in the square, etc. It is awesome here. It's awesome doing finding--because there are people EVERYWHERE. I love this cute old city. 

-We're teaching this cute Philippiana lady who wants to be baptized! But won't ever come to church because she works every Sunday. But she's hilarious and says things like... "Save the American potatoe." "Take the book, leave the boyfriends!" and we honestly have no idea why she says these things! 

-And the best for last: Angelo!! I don't remember if I already told you about him, but here's the story again. He called us wanting to do English, but he can't come when we have English course so we arranged to have private lessons. He asked us a few questions about our church and then we explained everything and he seemed so interested! Our second lesson we watched The Restoration and he told us all these questions that he has. We taught him the right way to study and to pray to help him get an answer to know if the BOM is true. We invited him to be baptized, he said he will if he knows this is true! Maybe this doesn't seem like something, but I just feel like he is so sincere and really looking to find the truth. If he studies and prays like how we taught him...I know he will get an answer! Slla Felice and I have a ton of faith for him. Hopefully he stays strong, but he seems great! 

Well that's all for this week! I love being a missionary and serving people all day long and inviting other to learn more about Christ!! This gospel is true! Good luck with the wedding!!!!!!! Love you all!!!!
