venire a Cristo: Cefalu, Easter and General Conference

So, our p-day got changed because yesterday was Pasquetta, the day after
Easter. All the stores were shut down and everything it was so crazy
but since the whole country basically shuts down on this day it was
our cleaning day. So, we basically spent the whole day cleaning the
house. So, yeah, it was way fun. Today is our new p-day and we are going
to play Zone Soccer at a field near the church. There are a ton of
missionaries here so it should be a ton of fun. Anyways, so this
week...

We had a pretty good week this week; saw many miracles and what not.
We’ve been working hard and are preparing for the baptism this week.
There was a bunch of craziness for Easter and Good Friday. There was a
precession that literally paraded under our balcony Friday night. That
was interesting, a little bit of idolatry but ehh, it was culturally
cool. Then we had Conference and Easter Sunday which were amazing.
Watching Conference as a missionary is so crazy but soo enlightening.
We watched the Saturday morning session Saturday night because of the
time change and then Priesthood Sunday morning and then after that was
Saturday afternoon and then Sunday session live. wWe don’t get to watch
Sunday night session because it comes on too late here but I’ll read
about it in the Ensign or something. Also Elder Texiera spoke which was
cool! Totally saw him like 2 weeks ago; we were hoping for a shout out
but we didn’t get one ha-ha. This week is going to be a busy week though
and I’m super excited. Bagheria has a lot of potential and I wouldn’t
mind staying here for a while. My trainer will probably leave at the
end of this transfer so hopefully my next companion is ready to work
hard!

Also, sounds like you guys had a awesome week! Looks like a lot is
happening in Michigan ha-ha. Spring is finally coming. The pictures
look great and I love the pancakes (referring to pictures of crazy colorful
Easter pancakes). Idk I guess I don’t have a lot to say today ha-ha other than
if you wanted to send me some Old Spice shampoo and one of my Frisbees
that would be sick. They don’t have any of those things here in Italy and I
miss Frisbee but anyways, hope you all have an amazing week and I’ll talk
to you soon! And I’ll be calling on Mother’s day!!! Love you all
