Ciao!!
First off
that photo is going on Facebook!!! hahaha
Ok so real
quick as you know I am in Firenze right now!! And you are all in draper UT! How
fun!! hahahaha (insert sarcastic face here)
Anyways this
week has been pretty awesome and pretty slow i say slow because I comp was sick
with a fever for 3ish days so we just sat inside for 3 days and did nothing he
slept and I went insane cause there is no computer or TV or movies or
anything I read as much as my brain would allow me to! (so not very much) haha
Anyways we
have these new converts that you will probably get to meet on Sunday! Their
names are CHEN AND LIN they are in a photo I sent they are straight from China
and are sooo sick! They speak English really well and Italian and Chinese so I
am learning some Chinese from them! Anyways they have a friend they introduced
us to his name is Hung Ling Chow he is awesome, little bit of a language
barrier but that’s alright we got him to come to a GANS (YSA) activity with us
and the other peeps and he really enjoyed it we all played some basketball! Let
me tell basketball is not my sport! I can shoot it and play well but in a game
ohhh mamma I’m very bad anyways Hung Ling Chow will get baptized we just have
to go slow with him and start from the beginning cause he doesn’t have any
background with religion or anything. Then I did a scambio in Livorno and
talked with a lot of people and I was with an elder named anz firoentino who is
from Florida. That was a very fun scambio he is in his second transfer so I was
doing most of the talking and contacting and stuff but he is super bravo really
great missionary. Speaks really well and everything amazing guy. Also only
member in his family!
Anyways other
then that yesterday we had interviews here in Firenze with President so that
was nice.
We have found
several people who are members that have lived here in Pisa but never knew
where the church was a family from the Philippines and one from Messico! mmmm
hope they can cook me up a nice smothered burrito! as homer simpson would say
"mmmmm burrrito!"
Umm I don’t
have any pics as of now cause its 1030 or something like that in the
morning. Oh yes! i bought a new set of scriptures!!! Italian ones! and i
have them here with me! And I am able to take them to a leather shop and they
with cover it in custom designed leather and a leather strap and stuff pretty
cool!
Church on Sunday
was really nice we had lunch after church with the members then a
fireside! Our church is losing a member cause she is moving and she is the
pianist! And there is no one else who can play piano in the branch! So
wish I would have learned anyways they have been praying for a solution
for a pianist to fill the slot and well me and Anz hardy knocked on the
door of a guy who is an..... organist!!! We also have an organ in the church
(they would prefer that over a piano, plus he plays piano obviously) anyways
he has been taught by the sister missionaries a long time ago and is
difficult to get a hold of but if we can meet with him again and get
things moving prayers shall be answered! But how cool is that??? Pretty
sweet!
Well that’s really
all for now
Ohhh yes I
learned the name of the brother of Jared! It has his name in the
book of Mormon in ether so if you don’t know it go and find
it!!!!!!
anyway that’s
all
love you all
bye bye
Elder Mitchell
in Firenze!
**Letter to Grandma
What your
building a house!!! Well that’s awesome!!! way cool! Well you wont have to
travel cause right now i am in Firenze (Florence) it is soo cool! i haven’t
seen anything yet we just got here and started our emails cause we didn’t do it
yesterday cause we had a meeting with the president...oh one quick question i
met a man and his family I don’t know if you know him or not but his name is Craig Palmer. Just sounds soo familar was he the governor or something at one time? Anyways
Pisa is an amazing place I love it and I really love the missionary work
here. Its going really well. And I’m getting better at speaking Italian!!! My
comp has been sick for a couple days so a lot of the time we were in the house
resting as in we didn’t leave the house...and grandma when there is no TV and
no internet and no electronics...you start to go...INSANE!!!! I could not wait
to get outside and go back to work! Anyways you better be there on mothers
day!!! Or your in trouble I’m gonna have to come to Utah or Idaho wherever you’ll
be hiding and I wont be happy cause I would have to leave Italy...and I have
been thinking a lot about New Zealand as well!!! that’s weird! yes i think that
would be awesome. but i think meg and mark need to stop doing trips to Hawaii
and stuff you need to tell her to go see her sweet little grandma in New Zealand
cause she would love that!!!! oh yes I’m also learning Chinese!!!! i can say
some pretty cool things!
Anyways have
a great week maybe you will wake up and read this but its prolly really early
