La Reggia é Grande!

Hello everyone! 
Hope all is well at home! This week has been overally pretty good! A few bumbers, but overall it has been great! Anziano Faggioli and I are getting along very well and we are working very hard and it is very fun! Caserta Italy is the best place! It is so much fun!

This week we were suppose to have our baptism for I*, the African lady, but it turns out in the final interview that something came up and we have to postpone and we are not sure if she will ever be able to be baptized. We had thought that she had been single for a long time, but it turns out she has lived with a man for 8 years. In Africans eyes, this is being married, but because it is not signed on paper she cannot be baptized. She said she doesnt want to officially be married at the interview, but this next week we are going to meet with her and talk to her about it.

Today was spent at La Reggia and we went inside the actual palace for the first time. It was absolutely incredible! Every room was beautiful with paintings on the ceilings and everything was marble and really nice, it was really fun! 

This week we have also been teaching R* and G* from our English course. It is awesome because they are progressing really fast and reading the Book of Mormon a lot and they ask us really good questions about the Church! I feel really good about them progressing and everything! They are really fun! They are very intelligent and very interested in the Church. 

Life with Faggioli is great and we play chess for fun every day at lunchtime, so that is cool! We have been working a lot to find new investigators also this week, and it is really good! We have found a few really good potentials. Life is fantastic in Italy! I couldnt ask for anything better! We are working hard and things are looking positive! Also, with P* one of our eternal investigators, we have began reading the Book of Mormon with her in the park and for the first time she is really starting to read and understand it. It is cool!

Anyway, hope all is well at home!

Sincerely,

Anziano Burton
