Caro Famiglia e Amici,
Well it’s been a good week. The work is going
well and everything seems to be settling in with Anziano Lacey. He's a funny
kid. Loves making movies and stuff. He talks about movies a lot. He's probably seen every film known to man
I'm pretty sure. We tear it up here with the work also. It's gonna be a good
transfer I think. We could very well have 2 baptisms this transfer =) I'm very
excited. Maddelena and Maurizio. They are all so involved in the church that Anziano
Lacey thought they were members already when he came to church for the first
time this Sunday. We had branch conference this Sunday also. The
district council came and we had some excellent lessons. In
priesthood we talked about scheduling out time and putting the Lord first, and I
thought to myself how this lesson really doesn't apply to us missionaries
because when it comes to scheduling we don't have to worry
about prioritizing spending time with our families, going to work, or
having fun because our schedule is already made for us haha.
Teach, proselyte, eat, learn, and sleep, and on Wednesdays
"prepare" haha. So we never have scheduling dilemmas. But it was
a good lesson for the rest of the Branch. Maybe it will get them all psyched
about missionary work.
Sunday night we got to have a beautiful experience. A
member of our branch F.llo Moro (perhaps one of the first members in Sardegna)
sings in a chamber choir that was celebrating its 90th anniversary so they
had a concert in an old catholic church in centro. There were 4 groups that
preformed and his group sang last. It was beautiful. And I don't know how often
you find yourselves in 14th century Catholic churches but
the acoustics are beautiful. And I love chamber choir music; O Magnum
Mysterium and Ave Maria by Franz Biebl were my favorites of the night. It was
really amazing. I love this place. I will start learning Latin after this
mission I'm pretty sure. It is such a beautiful language and Italian is the
closest language to it so that might help out.
What else...... I got another letter from you
guys. I get letters pretty regularly now so I guess I can say that they are
arriving. I wanted maybe to give Mike's a specific shout-out though because
that picture was one of the craziest things I have ever seen but I will let you
know that I understood it perfectly the second I saw it. I understood the
meaning of every symbol but I also understood the one that said "do not
tell anyone about any of this" so your secret message is safe with me.
Thank you so much for all your letters I really appreciate them.
Keep'em coming. I pray for you all every day and hope you have a great week. I
miss you all and love you all. Stay fantastic.
Con Amore,
Anziano
