CIAO!

Ciao Famiglia Mia!

We had our first English Course in Capo d'Orlando and 11 people came!!! We were so excited. It was a little stressful starting, because everyone is at different levels, but we can do it. One man just wanted to come to learn more about our church, which is so great! He told us that he already looked at the website and would like to learn more. We told him a little about the apostasy and authority and he told us that it is interesting we are talking about that since he just barely finished reading a book about the 2000 years of christianity after Christ and how he was thinking how the authority the Catholic Church claims from Peter seems to be missing in some years in the history.

I learned a wonderful lesson about enduring through trials this week! I do not know what it is with me and ripping my clothes, but my skirt ripped right up the seam (up to my bum) while we were doing house... We ended up changing our house approach to asking for safety pins to fix my skirt and this sweet woman let us in and we got to do the first lesson with her and then she gave us gelato! She loved how we prayed and asked if we could pray for her family, she then listed off their names. (I think she liked how specific we are in our prayers. I said and I was over joyed thanking heavenly father for the miracle of this women helping to fix my skirt:)) Before this miracle, I wanted to go home, because I was so embarrassed, but we jerry riged some bobby pins and temporarly fixed my skirt until we met this nice lady. I am sure had we not been looking for a pin she would not have let us in. This experience also gave me new ideas on how allowing other people to have an opportunity to serve is a great way to do missionary work. It is just like in the Church we give callings to new converts, giving them an opportunity to serve which helps to further establish and grow their testimony.

I love you all so much!

Have a great week!

Love,

Sorella Comollo
