Easter & Baptisms

La famiglia e i amici-
This week it was my companions birthday so we went to our Branch
president to celebrate! We had cake and lots of pasta and sang Buon
Compleanno. It was great! This week was awesome because we had 2
baptisms with Peter and Mark. Our church doesn't have a baptism font
so we have to go early in the day to fill it up. I got to give a talk
on Baptism and thought that it went pretty well. After the talk we
went into the other room and our 2nd councilor did the baptism!
Everything went great and we even had one of our investigators show up
and he really liked it! The next day was Easter was great also we had
church in the morning and Peter and Mark were confirmed by our Branch
President. It was really cool because right after the members of the
word sustained them I looked over to Peter and he was crying. We
asked him after and he said he has never felt anything like that
before it was weird. Easter was good though most our members were out
of town so we didn't get the chance to eat with them but that's alright
it was still great! This week we had another zone conference in
Modenna and learned a lot how to be better missionaries. Today we went
to San Marino which is a country within Italy it was really cool. We
went to the castle and it was just like Lord of the Rings. This week
has been great! Especially with the work before the baptism we fasted
that our investigators would come to church. Only one came and I was
pretty bummed but before the baptism we set 3 baptism dates 2 of them
are legit! So the Lord doesn't always answer our prayers how we want
it! Thanks for everything you do!
Vi voglio bene! -Anziano Thomas
