Raining cats and dogs.....

Well this week has been a nice and wet one. It has rained almost continually since friday. It has let up a bit today but there are still clouds everywhere. Missionary work in the rain doesnt really work. This past week, we had to continue with our adventure in getting a little pieice of paper that allows my companion to get a blood test, and boy was that an adventure. After searching in the dark(we had not idea what we were doing) we finally found out a way how to get this little piece of paper. We went to the emergency room and we explained everything and they gave us the sheet. It was really cool. We got the blood test done and now we are ready to do the doctors visit in Milano tomorrow. That was our cool little miracle of the week. Our investigator Gladys is still in torino so we have no investigators as of now. We have to keep looking. This will a big focus for this week. So the other day we did a scambio and it was an intesresting scambio. A scambio(exchange in english) is where you trade companions for a day with someone and you do missionary work. Its a good way to learn from others. Anyways, I stayed in cuneo with a missionary I knew from milano, and Anziano Boscia went to torino. When Anziano boscia left, he took our phone with him, so we did not have a phone for the whole day. Its less efficient to do missionary work without a phone because you cant call people and confirm your appointments. So we had to get in contact with Anziano Boscia but we didnt have their number, so we had to call the missionaries in milano to get their number. So we used a payphone outside. It was hilarious becauseyou put in a little money and call and once you start the call your money that you put runs out fast so we were yelling in the phone asking for their numbers from the other missionaries and they were so confused. It was very entertaining. So that was our week really. We are working hard but we arent seeing much of the fruit of our efforts right now. We are hoping to find some people soon. Vediamo. On the brightside we finally have a ward mission leader who is helping us out so much so we are excited about that. I hope you all have a great week! Love you all!
