new church at Via Leblis/via Monfalcone in Vercelli. Our week
consisted of service, an exchange, heat, the sun, lessons with Ting
and Serena, me going insane, and heat.
My scambio (exchange) with Carnahan was very eventful as we passed by
two inactive members who lived in Lesa. Well, we took many trains, and
had an hour 'layover' in Cuzzago which is in the middle of nowhere.
Awesomely we explained our church to 8 or so new people today. And
then we exhausted ourselves by climbing to Massino Visconti to find an
inactive (who wasn't home, but we left a note)
We decided to hitchhike back to the train station instead of walking
an hour back down. (We found later that it's illegal?) but on our
third try a nice couple helped us, and we had yet another gospel
conversation.
This past week and so we've finished almost all the lessons with Ting,
though she hasn't decided on a baptism date. Serena is becoming more
interested, and our other lessons have not shown up.
We received 3 referrals from an anonymous person...all three were
uninterested...?
Ester looks like she won't be returning until school (heartbreaking)
Maryke can't return for her baptism it seems (dreadful)
And I've been sick a few days (meh)
I don't know what else to recount to you.
I love this mission though! I swear it gets harder everyday, but I see
the change that I'm making and that's what's important!!
--Anziano Benge, I love you all!
