Wednesday, July 9: Mini me Ciao!! My new companion arrived in Rome last Thursday and it's been the best time ever since. Her name is Sorella Yardley and she's from Cedar City Utah. Anddd we're basically the same person haha it's actually crazy how much we have in common. I love her to death!! (plus she goes on runs w/ me in the morning so she's already the best lol.) She has such a love and fire for missionary work already and just wants to learn anything and everything I have to teach her. She is gonna do big things in Italy and this mission! I'm so grateful to get to work with her for this last transfer. Besides a gas station exploding in our area (luckily no one died) I didn't see any fireworks for the 4th of July but HAPPY 4TH EVERYONE MAN I LOVE AMERICA (rip celebrating my favorite holiday) A sister I live with who's Australian kept saying "Happy 4th!" to everyone she came in contact with lol she got a kick out of that and ...
Wednesday, 28 August, 2024 Ciao! On Sunday Antonello surprised us by driving the hour and a half from his house in Ales to Oristano!! It's a huge sacrifice for him and so it meant so much. I'll never forget the moment he wheeled around the corner with the biggest smile on his face. There was a family from Germany visiting and it was so sweet to see their two sons bless and pass the sacrament for our tiny branch. It reminded me of my younger brothers and was like a little piece of home <3. Sorella Taylor and Ania gave beautiful talks and I played "I am a child of God" on the piano. Also Valeria (a less active member) came AGAIN for the 3rd time after 2 years!!! Another Sunday full of miracles. On Tuesday Sorella Taylor hit ONE YEAR WAHOOOO! So grateful for that girl. We celebrated with YUM pizza (cooked by Andrea, our friend who's a pizza chef ) and one of our favorite families. Valentina and Carolina crack me UP. Today for pday we wen...
Wednesday, July 2: incinta...di nuovo✌️ Nobody put that into google translate you might have a heartattack haha but we got our LAST TRANSFER CALLS yesterday (headed into my final one!!) and I'm training again!!! I'm soo excited to get to introduce another new missionary to the work and this time to my favorite place, the visitors center, as well! I just think it's the perfect way to end my mission and I'm so blessed and so grateful to do a 4th transfer in Roma 3 and in the vc with my girls. (How did I get this lucky?!) This week was our new mission leaders, the Walker's, first week in the mission field! I cannot say enough good about this couple. They're so full of joy and energy. (See the jumping photo below hehe) I've only known them a week but they have already changed my life. Due to different exchanges I had to get done before the end of the transfer I was at the vc every single day this week (instead of every other day) and my feet hur...
