It finally looks like it might rain this week, a lot! That is one
thing that makes me happy.
We are teaching nobody, still. We finally had a lesson with Antonio at
his restaurant, but he said he is not interested in changing faiths,
so we gave him a Book of Mormon, with our testimonies inside, a
pamphlet and finished with strong testimonies of the restoration. The
only question is why does nobody want to change. Everybody thinks
everybody else is the problem, and it is really out of hand. We have
Catholics every single day tell us that Catholicism is wrong, but they
don't need our religion. Every person we share the gospel with admits
it is true, and then tells us it's not important though, because they
already pray, and trust God. Etc.
We share the Message, and then...
"- I haven't read the bible, but I know that Christ loves me. I don't
need prophets because I have Christ. Bye, thank you.
- Christ was a prophet, and I think everyone can receive revelation,
I already pray so you can't change what I think. Bye, thanks.
- nope
- Nope I'm catholic, and even if the church is not of God, I like it!
I I'm going to be catholic until I die."
Those are the same answers we get every single time, and it is very
very very exhausting. La energia è sfinita.
I wish I could say more...
We found Anna last pday. Anna is a Chinese woman who speaks no
Italian, and little English. We taught here as best we could why we
wanted to share the message, and then met her again, and taught her
about God and prayer, we are trying to follow up with her and meet
with her again before we pass her to the Cimiano area sisters. We are
excited for her, and we hope she prayed for the love and witness of
God. Nobody has met with us.
On a side note, I bought 3 ties last week (100% silk, made in Como) so
I have 8 ties total now, instead of 5. So that's nice... Anyway
Vi amo, e ci sentiamo dopo!
