Well transfer news is in. My new companion
will be Anziano Tanner. He is coming from Busto A. So it will be nice to get an
update on how things are going on the other side. I’m looking forward to
meeting him.
Well it has been a really incredible 3
transfers here in Muggiò. I’m already feeling sad that one day my time in Muggiò
will end. It really is a great city and the work always just goes so well. We
are always busy teaching lessons and we seem to find a lot of success. We
haven’t quite hit baptism hill, but we are having lots of success with
progressing investigators. I probably won’t see any baptisms here, but after I
leave there will definitely be at least 7 baptisms. We are teaching 3 families
and one elderly lady who are really awesome. I really have had such great
experiences here in Muggio; perhaps more than any other city. The best part is
we are teaching families and we know that they will build the future of the
church and grow the church in Italy. We are even teaching a 22 year old so we
are hoping that he will go on a mission when he gets baptized. We even went and
ate a pizza with him today.
The truth is that I love these people so
much! They have changed me forever. It has been a miracle to see the change the
gospel has made in their lives. They are completely different people and they
now have a hope and joy in their life that they never found in any other
worldly things. I’m so thankful for the opportunity that I have had to serve
them. And though many may thank me, it’s not me, it’s the power of the Holy
Ghost and the teachings of Christ that have brought this change. And is the
greatest of all Gods miracles ( The changing of a human heart). I have been
touched serving these people and I know that only the gospel has brought this
changes. I’m so happy! I love being a missionary. I didn’t come just to baptize
but to change people’s lives. That’s what counts and it’s not a measurable
number of how many people you got into the church. It’s a gift from above. Well
that’s all I got for today. Busy busy. I love you all. Thank you dad mom Ellis
Bre, pee wee, Bre, and Anni!
