I am in ITALIA!!!

Hello! Hello! Ciao!!!! (I do not know if I got Olga's email right, so let me know if it is wrong so I can change it:))

I am just emailing you from the mission home in Rome, Italy! Did I say I was in ROME, ITALY!?!!!!! Well, I am shaking with fatigue, because it has sure been a LONG day, but I am also shaking with excitment because I got my golden transfer(my first one that is)!!!! Guess where?

 

SICILIA!!!! MISTRETTA, SICILIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so so so happy! It was crazy, because when the mission president told the four of us, the sisters that came from the MTC that all of us were going to go to Sicily and he started naming some of the cities there, when he started talking about Mistretta, this hilly village, I had this sense that that is where I need to be, I had this yearning to go there. Well, I got my mini call and low and behold I was going exactly where I felt I should, rather, where the Lord felt I should:) I love having the spirit! I am taking an one hour flight at 1pm tomorrow, so I shall be there so soon:) Usually you have to take a 12 hour bus ride, but there is a strike tomorrow, so I get to take the plane! YAY!

 

Today was great, the flight only took 7 and half hours from Dallas to London, which is less than I was expecting. My ears were hurting sooooo bad, they would not pop for the whole time, in dallas and in London:(

I prayed so hard and guess what, they popped right as I arrived in Rome:) I love prayer:)

 

Well, you should write back to this email ASAP since I get to check it tomorrow before I leave:) I am allowed to write on email to my family, including sisters/brother etc:)

Also, you can totally send mail to me directly in SICILIA! My address is:

 

Via Pozzo Gelso, 1

98073 Mistretta Italy

 

So write me lots!

I love you all! It was the best talking to you today, I have the best family ever! I pray for you daily! And I just want to let you know that I know this church is true! With all of my heart! Remember that Jesus is our Savior and that through following him we can truly find joy!

Have a great day!

LOVE
