Ciao!

Ciao tutti! This week went by great! Yesterday we had interview and they went well. We learned a lot especially since the announcement they've talked alot about "the hastening of the work" which is true! It's really cool because here in Italy there's going to be an explosion in the mission with missionaries. Especially with Sisters. We have 146 missionaries in the mission and it's projected that by this summer there will be 250 missionaries!!! Haha so many people but it's exciting I've also heard that there's a chance that they'll split the mission and have two missions in Northern Italy. But that's just people talking we'll see. Anyway this week was super busy we had alot of people to see but we also had to drop a lot of investigators as well just because they weren't willing to commit. But this week we'll find some new people instead. As for our investigators Jamal is doing well we finally got a book of Mormon in Arabic so we will give it to him soon this Thursday. We weren't able to give him a baptismal date this week but we'll try for one tomorrow. Mario we saw the other day and gave him a baptismal date for the 24 of March which is great. The search for our new apartment is still going we are still looking to find something so today we are going to pass by a few agencies we got to find a new apartment by the 31 of March we got about a month until we are out on the street. I just finished the new testament again love reading about the early days of the church. Now I'm starting D&C as well as reading from the Book of Mormon.  But things here are going well not doing much for p'day just relaxing thanks for all the love have a great week!
