So many Friends!

I feel like when I write these emails I'm supposed to write some crazy news about some mind blowing thing that happened this week or some huge miracle or something like that. Like every week has to be the best most interesting week ever. I can't really say that for this past week. This past week was very normal. Nothing super horrible happened but nothing like super mind blowing either. It felt like one of those "same-old same-old" type weeks. One of the best parts about being a missionary here in Catanzaro is all the friends we have here. Lemme explain. So appropriately missionaries usually carry a very formal relationship between people they meet and know in each city. It's a really good and important thing but sometimes the idea of "friends" is lost. So one thing me and my comp have been trying to do is just be friends with everyone we know. It's working out really good. So I guess that's why this week went pretty normal. We just went and saw a bunch of our friends and taught them the good word of Christ. We have been doing a lot of English teaching as well. Other than the class we hold twice a week to teach people English we have been doing many different private lessons. We have like 3 or 4 different people that we meet on a weekly basis to teach them English. It's actually way cool. Sometimes it gets super annoying but deep down I love it. I mean we help these guys learn and grow and then at the end we give them a nice dose of the word of God and lift them up spiritually. Honestly it's one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. So I won't complain. In other news the weather is starting to warm up. Which is good and it makes me happy but I know once summer comes around I'll complain all day long about the heat. It's like drinking a sweet poison, at first you're like it but a little while later you're sweating in an inescapable heat and ya feel like you're dying. It's tough but eh what can ya do. Anyways life is good. Calabria is still beautiful. And March in Italy is filled with a lot less madness ;) I hope all your brackets are doing well. Love you all and have a great week.
