A quick update from Italy....


And the breaking news from the Italy Milan mission is: I love this
place. Yeah, Padova is fantastic, but Italy in general is still
unnervingly awesome. They sell everything by the kilo, they have
gorgeous churches everywhere (more than they have gas stations), the
food is bomb. This week we were invited to go sing in a Lutheran
church by our stake, 12 missionaries have the opportunity to go sing
these hymns, but even greater... The church is famous and is in
Venice...
Lucky me, I will be able to tell people I sang in a choir at Venice!
The updates on my robbery last week: we haven't recovered anything and
we're still working on getting new Permits of Stay. Members were asked
to provide food for us by the bishop.
We ate a meal at the Zuppa family's (see photo) this past Sunday.
We've had many things dropped off for us, our fridge is jammed with
Italian snacks, we have infinite Ragu. It's all well.
The work: Tenal had his baptism moved to November 14, which means that
I might get transferred and miss it. Voltalina and Wilfred are
progressing spectacularly and we will see them enter the water soon.
Work is very fine and detailed.
Everything slowed down a bit this last week with the robbery and
pouring rainy weather, but it's all picked up nicely.
I know this church is true and the work is going forth !
If you have comments, questions, concerns or complaints
Just email me :)
