Not McDonalds but wait.....

Ciao tutti!!!

This week was a little hard but also awesome. We saw lots of little miracles together. 
We met a guy named Matteo on the bus who asked us who we were...he has ragazza troubles...aka girlfriend problems. But he is ready for the gospel...he knows God has been close by during this time.
One scambio we met a lady named Maria from Honduras. We just had a lesson with her Monday and plan on seeing her also tonight! We were going to have a lesson in mcdonalds but as we were praying I thought....ew how gross...she cannot hear about the restoration of the gospel at McDonald's. Luckily we found a spot to sit down at the train station. Meno male. 

One video we shared this week that has brought me close to tears was a video by elder eyring. It's called mountains to climb. You have maybe seen it. It's beautiful. I would like to share my testimony as well that the burden becomes lighter with our savior. I know that if we make the best of the worst times that is when we will grow. Life is too short to complain and hate it. Why not love it?
D&C 54
10 And again, be patient in tribulation until I come; and, behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with me, and they who have sought me early shall find rest to their souls. Even so. Amen.

"If we have faith in Jesus Christ, the hardest as well as the easiest times in life can be a blessing. In all conditions, we can choose the right with the guidance of the Spirit. We have the gospel of Jesus Christ to shape and guide our lives if we choose it. And with prophets revealing to us our place in the plan of salvation, we can live with perfect hope and a feeling of peace. We never need to feel that we are alone or unloved in the Lord’s service because we never are. We can feel the love of God. The Savior has promised angels on our left and our right to bear us up. And He always keeps His word."

I know this is true. I know we can find love and peace in the mist of trials.

Love you all!!!
I love my Italian friends. 
I love this gospel. 
Buona settimana a tutti! 

Love Sorella skinner (skin-air)
