Cara famiglia e cari amici,
BUONA PASQUA!!!
I hope this Easter has been super awesome and that everyone ate too much candy and then pndered on how incredible it is that Jesus Christ was resurrected and that He rose and lives and guides His church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. What a beautiful wonderful fact and event.
This Easter the famiglia Murgia invited us over. There were about 15 of us
all together. We ate pasta al forno (my favorite thing here besides gelato)
then lamb, and lamb insides (not my favorite thing here...). After pranzo, we
read in Luke when Jesus is resurected and then we kinda all shared our
testimonies of Him and how He helps us even today and how we have learned so
much from Him and just how much He loves us. It was really cool because one
aunt there isn't a member and she got to see how strong of testimonies her
family has and I am sure she felt in that moment the Spirit of God and His love
for her!
Yesterday was another hoilday: Pasquetta! I don't know what or why it is,
but it meant deep cleaning day for us! I took the bathroom and basically had my
hands in bleach all day, but that bathroom is shining now! Then we went and saw
Fulvia, a member here who also happens to know Debbie's gramma in Bitonto and
tried to call her while I ws there, but she didn't answer. Oh well. Next time
:)The work is kind of not doing the best that is has, but we are trying real hard. Angela is doing great and is getting over lots of hard things, slowly. But that is generally how it works, slowly but surely. Pray that she will have the mighty change of heart that Alma talks about. She is doing so good and we are so happy for the changes she is already making.
Well fam, sorry it's a short one. I hope you have a great week and know that I love you all!!

Not much time and not much to report, but two investigators
broke up with us in the same night and as good ex's we took flowers to one who
lives nearby. Don't know if she got them yet... but we still love them both a
tons and while it is definitely sad and hard to watch people reject the
happiest thing in the world, we know God will give them another chance. He
loves them even more than we do!
We have decided to focus more on finding families. It is
kinda hard, but nothing that is really worth it is too easy, eh?
We got a new branch President yesterday, and accidently
stood up the Stake President at a teaching appointment... But he told us there
is always repentence ;) Great guy! Haha, we all laughed about it don't worry.
In other news, the weather is absolutely amazing. Sassari is
supposed to have the best climate in all of Europe. I believe it.
Well, this week is going to be awesome, I know it! I love
you all with all my heart!!
