Who am I?

Ciao Tutti!!!

This week.....

1. Well first i had a really great exchange with Sorella Nielsen. I found out through her that this cousin of my back up trainer Sorella Boscia was baptized!!! I had no idea. She had such a cool story...probably the most sacred I've heard. 

Then we met Mario at the park and he was super cool. Has so many great thoughts and questions and wants the answers. We told him about Joseph smith and how he can pray like Joseph smith. We invited hi to church...he said no. He told us we were adorable and cute but he said that all this was the same. Ugh so frustrating ...we aren't just adorable and cute...we got the power of God to do this work. We are called of God by a prophet on earth today. So he was awesome we walked away loving him so much but also a little paper cut to the heart feeling. 
I love these people here in Italy. I know I was called here for a reason. Every day I try to find that reason. This experience is incredible. I am so happy to be a missionary to represent my savior...to feel a tiny bit of what he feels when others don't accept what he's done for them and to learn over and over again how much I need him in my life. How with him I can win!!! John 16:33

2. My companion and I almost got stung by fog like in catching fire. Also we will be together for another 4 weeks. Yay! 
3. We ran into some members from Firenze yesterday! 
4. We had a great time showing our English class the church and eating together afterward. 
5.  I also had a neat experience after English class talking about being Christian. I had people asking me "who am I?" I didn't give them a direct answer because they were there without their parents but I hope they can continue to check for who they are. 
I know God will reveal to us more than we think if our eyes and hearts are open.
“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.      “Beloved, now are we the sons of God” (1 John 3:1–2).
Who are you???
Love you all! 

Have a great week.
