Busy week.....

First of all I would like to start off with a shout out to Brian. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN!! Well this week has gone by fast like all the others. We have yet another crazy week, which is ironic because we still dont have any investigators. This past week we visited a family from Santo domingo. They are very awesome. They had known the church in their country and eventually had left to italy and lost track of the church....until we found them. They were really receptive to us. The mom seemed the most promising of the family so we are really excited to go back there. This past week we did a lot of traveling this past week. We went to milano for a doctor a visit(which was a loooonnngggg trip), then we went to alessandria for a conference, and then we did a scambio in which I had to travel to torino from cuneo twice. It was a tiring week. I did a scambio with a missionary younger than me, in the sense of time on the mission, so it was a little weird being the capitano. It was a lot of fun though. So winter left and now autumn is here. Its really weird how the seasons are here. They change so suddnely. But we are excited that it hasnt rained in awhile. The rain kills missionary work. It was really cool to see this past week to see how a lot of the people we had talked to had known the missionaries in some shape way or form whether they were taught by the missionaries or had done an english class in the past. this was cool because it shows us that all the people that we meet, that dont continue on with us, will meet missionaries in the future and will remember all that we did with them and more importantly than that will have the chance to accept this redeeming message that we bring. this past week we had a conference, in which I had to translate the whole thing for my companion, which was really awesome. We learned about how important is prayer. Prayer is a gift that God has given us, that we can use to talk with him and build our relationship with him. There is power in prayer. God listens to all our prayers and answers them all. I hope all of you are doing well!! Until Next time Anziano collins
