Week 69 in Italy (3 weeks left)

Shout out to my awesome and selfless dad. Finally hitting 30! Way to go.

It's been a good week. Really busy. We find ourselves sprinting home every night to be home before 10. There's just so many people to see!
It's wonderful. It's been raining the past week so we've gotten a nice cool down.

News of the week. Chris will be baptized on July 4th. He has some family events on the 28th. We are so excited. We found a new investigator named Sara. She is an awesome young lady. Very interested and has so many questions. She wants to be baptized in July as well.
She is preparing for the 5th.

All the new converts are doing well.

We are also working really closely with some less active families.
They are really starting to make progress. One of them came to church this last Sunday. The two daughters were so happy to be in church again. The mom said that she felt like a new person. They were so touched by the spirit that they agreed to come again next Sunday. I love going to church for that exact reason. If you never go to church, you'll never want to go to church. But the second you step foot into the church of Jesus Christ, you can't deny the spirit you feel. You CANT. It sparks something within and that desire grows more and more every time you come back. That kind of sounds like an addiction to something bad or negative. But it's totally not! It's one of the BEST things you can do for your soul.

So. GO TO CHURCH. And see the difference it makes. If you've been going to church every Sunday for the last 30 years, high five! But I invite those who are completely active to take note of what you feel when you walk into church this Sunday. Make note of it. Don't let it become routine. Make it special every single Sunday.

I love you all.

Have a great week!!
