This Week!!

Okay so this week was super fun!! Last wendesday we went to A castle in Milano!! It was so cool! Ill attatch pictures later. Two of the coolest parts about this castle was that theres a statue done by Michelagnello and a cieling that was painted by Da vinci!! How cool!! Well they are super old, so honestly they dont look that cool, but the fact that they did them was awesome.

Today were planning on seeing more castles and stuff and doing some shopping. Also one of the members of our ward has the Hookups with Giorgio Armani, so chances are we get to meet him on a Pday and maybe get a picture with him! Celeb status, nice.

The food and culture here continues to be great, and the members are so giving, they work hard and we appreciate them!!

President during this weeks training has us shifting our focus from finding work on the streets and in the parks to gathering referrals. I wholeheartedly agree with this. 53% of our baptisms in the past year have been through this method of finding!! Its Awesome to see how president really wants us working in close proximity with the members and just inviting people unto christ. This work is about inviting anyone and everyone to be just a little bit closer and dig a little bit deeper every day! It doesnt matter if they are non members, active members, less active members, or anything. Our job is to invite everyone!! We are more focused on the people now than we were before, because in the end, focusing on the people and doing good is all we can do. Were really just focusing on the people we have and are working hard to help prepare them to make covenants with the lord! If they have already made those covenants we are working to help them maintain them!!

Heres a scripture I found during the week that I really liked, I hope yall like it too!

Jer: 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and Whose hope the Lord is.

Well I love yall! Pictures from this week coming soon! Talk to you next week!
