February 27, 2017

So before awesome beach time and playing soccer and baseball with a giant PVC pipe thing. We helped Carlos (the blind member) get money and go to the store and to a local comune and that is always fun, becuase he is super great to talk to.
Then we had this great lesson with a guy we found a few weeks ago but couldn't meet becuase he had tests and stuff, but when we met with him he was very different.  I'll illustrate, when we met him he wasnt wearing shoes, he had a big beard and large fluffy hair, and basically Aladdin type clothes except he was wearing a shirt of the same style.
When he showed up to meet with us he was wearing cargo pants and I t-shirt, he had shaved his head and his face and had on hiking boots, I did not recognize him for like 5 seconds, but he was really cool and understood everything we taught and ended up also coming to church the next Sunday and he has met all the members and is really interested in learning more about his geneology as well.

We also had some really good lessons with the delle Foglie's  (a super old couple) they were awesome as usual asking such great questions and just taking in everything.

We also went to the questura and picked up my permesso di soggiorno which is like my license to be in the country for "motivi religiosi" so thats cool.

We also went to find a family found by Australian missionaries that supposedly live here but I think someone got their name wrong because they don't exist, we walked around in the middle of nowhere amongst orchards and dirt trails for hours talking to random strangers and we got really close to their house number but then it was gone.  It is like really hard to find people by addresses here becuase the "street" contrada Casali is actually all streets on one side of the main street that goes on for miles and miles and splits and turns and ends but it is all the same street its terrible, beautiful, but terrible.

For this p-day it was sorella Walch's b-day so we played on the beach again and ate at an expensive american type restaurant and took epic pictures in front of graffiti and stuff, yaaah.


Im doing great, I hope with all my heart that all of you are doing great, keep moving, be happy and always be the best you can be!
