P-Day #23

ciao tutti

first let me tell you all!!! you all think its cold in utah or in idaho or wherever you are but let me tell you!!! until you come to italy or somewhere like this where it is just a ton of humidity and extremely cold well then you can say its freezing...with all the humidity it basically makes the air frozen!!!! sooooooooo cold!!! past couple mornings everything has been white....But its not snow! its straight frost!!! soo cold especially on bikes!. 

so real quick
Mary brando will not be getting baptized this week....we are still working with her to try and set a date but it will come in time! She will be baptized eventually but she still has alot to learn! So we are still working with her!
THEN there is this african guy named Patrick thankfully he is already baptized...anyways we were going to catch our train but we missed it...and patrick who we never have met before is all like "hello" so then we start talking with him and find out he used to go to church here in busto along time ago but he hasnt been to church in a long time! We got talking with him and he has been trying to find work and he lives at a caritas (somethin like that) kinda like a homeless shelter thing i think. So we got talking with him and set up a time to meet with him again...we met him again and tought him about repentance and what not as that is what it kinda led into..then we kept talking and wrapped up the lesson before we closed with the prayer i asked if there is anything in particular he would like me to pray for..he said for him to find a job. So i prayed for that and the next day he got a call from a place who want an interview with him he put in an application to this place two years ago!!!!! Wow!!! And they called him! Then we had invited him to church and he is all like i will but i dont have a jacket or suit pants but i will come....(he lives in milan so he left for church at about 7 in the morning!) We picked him up went to church and he is in a silly santa tie and a strange really furry suit coat looked like gorilla hair. haha and in jeans..so after me and anz glowa are gonna go halves and buy him a cheap suit here during the sales (cheap suit at ovs is only like 60 euro for all of it) dont worry! So we will probably spilt that...Patrick talked to me at church and said his mom called him and he hasnt heard from his mom in several years! He thought his mom was in Ghana still but she is in New Jersey. At church i asked him if he would like to go and get some pizza Tuesday and he was really excited...so we met up Tuesday and had planned a lesson on missionary work (because he is only 24 and can still go serve a mission)We bought his pizza and he was sooo very thankful then we got talking and he said on the train on the way over he got talking to this lady and talked all about the church with her! He got her contact info..she wants to know more! YAY!!!! So we talked to him about a mission and for him to really prepare himself to go and get everything back on the straight path....he is very excited he wants to go on a mission very badly now! ..Patrick is an amazing person! 

ok sorry that is a very jumpy story hopefullly you all understand!
Yes i need photos of Megs car!!!! Now Meg can buy the BIG mini cooper! Its awesome i really like it! Its fairly new and pretty popular in Italy i think they are already out in usa also! if not oh well tell meg i hope she is doin alright and if she is in need of my services to buy a new car i will be there subito! 

oh yes the albainians have dropped us cause when we pray we dont do the cross and that really offended them so they dont want to see us again! ohhh well they are only missin out on eternal life! nothin too important! Haha!

You are going to have some "missinaires" come over and practice!!! ahhhhh only if i was there!!!! Yes i have some very good questions! You can tell them if they bring up the book of mormon that the picture inside with lehi leaving jerusalem he is a white person and the people in south america are dark so therefore it doesnt work! (if that makes sense) inside the bom there is a picture of lehi and his fam on a boat going to america and they are all white people!!! south americans arent white!!!! I get that alot! 
this is for dad!.............dad when they come over just say "I am muslim" then they wont know what to do!!! i get alot of those and i say well if you would like to learn about jesus here is our number..ciao! 
so dad will be muslim and mom you will be a Jdub lady so always ask them whats gods name and that in revelations it says there can be no other books etc.. and that there can be no other prophets! YAY!!!!! make them feel like they are in Europe!!!!!
But obviously the golden question is "how can i know this is true" 
so do that and it shall go really well!!!!!

Umm this week has been very cold! Have had a hard time finding new investigators but we are teaching lessons! 
On Sunday there is this guy we have been trying to go and visit ( i can totally see dad doing this) so we finally got an appointment with him! He is a member! Finally get an appointment to come over at 5 o clock on the dot cause then he has to go! So we get to his house at 5 walk into the living room and what do ya know the Home teachers are there! But they didnt know we were coming over! So they were surprised and we were surprised but it was all part of his plan! To get them both appointments finished in one hour!!! ahahah
ummm that is alll for now you all have a nice week and try not to die while i am gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that would be nice! MEG!!!!
tell everyone i say hello!
