A Long Move

The most memorable day was Saturday.
Waking up at 5:30, we hitched a ride with some members and drove the
long (circa) 1 hour 40 minute trip to Belluno to help Isabel and Mario
move. In the misty, dewy morning, the Dolomites were beautiful.
Hopefully we weren't distracted too much as we hauled boxes and bed
frames, washing machines and cabinets, downstairs to load them in a
truck. (Also a fridge and a table, and two massive red couches
(massive for Italian sizes at least(actually small))). The truck, of
course, arrived an hour later and then we loaded and made the drive
back home.
Once again, we emptied the truck and this time had to bring it all
upstairs to the second story (third floor in U.S measures).
Fortunately for the men that were there, they had a lunch prepared for
us when we were finished.
Sunday was fantastic because so many members are bringing their
friends to church. We are contacting them all, and most said that
they'd be here for the dual-ward party this Saturday (which us
missionaries will be the judges for a chili cook-off competition).
There will also be a trunk-or-treat.
We've had many dinners (Italian on Friday, Senior Missionary Couple on
Monday, American Restaurant with an Airman yesterday) and we do a
'Family Home Evening' at the church on tuesdays, so yesterday I taught
that lesson.
For Even more news, we had a surprise exchange with the missionaries
in Mestre on Thursday to Friday, so both of us were there for that
night. Then, yesterday morning and afternoon was a Zone Conference in
Mestre for all the missionaries from Trieste to Bologna. Yes, I've
been to Mestre twice in the last week, hard travels!
So yeah, we've been busy, and I don't have much more to write. Today
for our free day we haven't decided what to do...so..until next time!

I love this gospel, and I KNOW it's true
