Things are rolling along again in
Muggiò! We
have been receiving some divine counsel from the European general authorities
on how to move the missionary work forward in Italy, and we have been putting
it into practice! As a result of this we found a family of 4! They are really
really interested and we are now teaching them the lessons. Miracles!! President Dibb is inspired!
We also had our Christmas zone
conference this last week! Ham and potatoes! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOD! I
haven’t had ham in so long! It’s nonexistent here! I about died it was so good.
However, I am loving the Italian Christmas as it is. They have quite the spread
of foods as well. I even splurged and bought a ton of nuts. I took on the
grandpa D tradition I have an obsession for nuts. they are really good. and
healthy! I have been working on my own Christ like attributes and I love the Italian
mentality at the New Year: out with the old and in with new! They throw stuff
off their balconies! T.V.s fridges, couches, plates, everything! Man it’s a mad
house here! I advise you to do the same Out with the old garbage and in with
the clean! Get rid of bad habits and set new goals.
Well I really am enjoying this
time of the year. It’s merry and bright. The sun is shining in Italy and the gospel
is going forward. I have a really strong undeniable testimony that this is the
restored gospel and that we have the priesthood. Simple but strong. The
scriptures are amazing as well, and they have the words of life.
Merry Christmas! Buon Natale! Augurui! It’s the most
wonderful time of the year!
Love Elder Benson
