I apologize for not distributing an email last week, the wifi
situation has become almost impossible to work with. Last week, to
make things worse, every my iPad's email info was reset and nobody
knew how to fix it until Sunday. I'm writing this email at home,
Wednesday afternoon, I can't promise you that you'll read it any time
soon. Sorry.
Our week was awesome, our South African friend, Maryke, came to church
and LOVED it. She is reading the Book of Mormon, she's praying, she's
talking about baptism. If she stays faithful the ordinance will be
soon. She was definitely prepared to receive the gospel!
Now look, she's African...but she's Caucasian! Her last name is Dutch
and Sud Afrika origin. Pale, blonde, speaks English, Italian,
Afrikaans, some Dutch and more. She's lived here for twelve years and
is hoping to get into the USA soon! Her parents have raised her well
and they love us missionaries.
We went on a beautiful bike ride with them to have a discussion about
temples. The 25k ride along the 'Ticino River Valley' (?) was
exhausting but perfect for several gospel conversations. (No photos
because I'm lame)
They hope to take us on another bike ride discussion soon, and also
want to take us shopping for the Fourth of July... I think.
Our progress with Ting is great, we hope to watch Meet the Mormons
with her soon. Our less actives are disappearing, and it's hard to
contact anyone since school got out. Oh well... I feel as though there
is more to say...hmmm nope.
I love Galliate. I love this ward and the members.
The gospel is simple, God loves us, Jesus Christ is our Savior. I know
these things!
Until next time, when I have a combination of time/wifi/care
Take care
