So this week went by really fast. To start this last Thursday we went down to Firenze (Florence) for a zone meeting. It was really cool because we got there a little early and we just stopped by real quick by the duomo and it was HUGE. Then we ran down to the church. It's funny because right now all of Toscana (Tuscany) is a district but there has been some talks of it becoming a stake within 6 months so that's really exciting for us! Also this last week we helped with Spanish class haha a woman in the branch who's from Honduras has started it up again and asked for the missionaries to come so I learned a little Spanish. Right now with the work it's still going slow we are talking to alot of people just looking for someone to consistently teach. A cool miracle we had this last Monday was we were riding to doing finding work in a certain area and we get a call that the power in the church was out. So we turn around because we had keys for the church so we had the doors opened , waiting for the member to come and these two woman walk up and kinda look in so we greet them and start talking. They say they pass the church every so often but it's always closed so we go with them and give them a tour and then taught them the restauration. It was really cool they were really impressed we gave them a book of Mormon in Italian and invited them to read it they said they could come Sunday! Also we've been trying to get to know members better. Trying to see at least 3-4 a week so they know who we are. We saw some members this last week and all of them are great. Sunday I had a talk and I talked to the branch about Unity referring to president Uctdorf's talk "Lift Where you Stand" basically it talks about working where you are and magnifying your calling. I talked about how the church can't move forward if everyone doesn't work together and do there part I thought it went well. I had alot of time to prepare for it because the new missionaries had to go to residency permits. Things are going good we are doing ALOT of finding work and just trying to find new investigators so pray that we'll find some new people this week to start teaching! Today we went to Pisa and Lucca both cool cites. Love you all!
