General Conference and a Trip to Rome

This week we went to Rome well we went down on Tuesday afternoon. We

got to Rome me had interviews with President and then went to sleep. I

also got a package from Derrick so that was really nice! He sent me a

camo t-shirt and shorts. I think he got them at Wal-Mart but it's all

good. I loved it. So then the next day we had Zone Conference! It was a

pretty good time. I feel like it could have been much better but idk.

Maybe I just wasn't ready to learn what others did. Idk. Anyways, it

was still a really good conference. Then we had to come back to

Pescara. Now the trip to Rome is about 2 and a half hours but it's a

very beautiful drive. The whole time your driving though the mountains

and on the way home the sun was setting at our backs. Mamma Mia! It

was so beautiful. It's still a long ride though.

Also this week we got some good work going here in Pescara. We met

some new investigators and are helping a couple investigators here

prepare for baptism. It's truly a blessing to be here in Pescara right

now. It's vibrant, the members have a strong desire to help, fall

weather is beautiful. I'm just really excited and blessed to be here.

Also this past week I hit my 10-month mark on the mission. Idk how

that happened so fast but it did. Time literally cannot go by any

faster while I'm out here. Every day slips away quicker than it came.

But I'm loving every minute of it. Even if the minutes go by as fast

as seconds.

I know I wrote the email differently than I have been recently but I

really did try to put the important stuff in there. I don't talk about

the work in too much detail out of respect to our investigators but

also to the honest fact that it literally changes every day so a once

a week email just isn't enough to keep you up to date ha-ha. But I want

to let you all know I love you, care about you and miss you so much.

You're always in my thoughts and in my prayers. Also this week I got

to bear my testimony in church. I bore my testimony about the

restoration and the reality of living day prophets. I know it's true.

Joseph saw God the Father and Jesus Christ in a vision and was called

to be a prophet. Thomas S. Monson leads and guides our church today. I

love you all and hope you have a good week :)
