Ciao Ciao!

Buon Giorno Tutti!

Well, last Pday it was pretty awesome going golfing haha! 

This week has been good! Anziano Gunderson and I are working hard and we are getting along pretty well. It will always take a little bit of time to get use to how things work with new companions. We are teaching a bunch of lessons still and it is good!

This week, something cool that happened. The Thursday night after English course Anziano Faggioli and Anziano Morgan, the new greeny, were going to teach R* and G*. Prior to this Anziano Faggioli and I had split up the investigators and he had taken them for him and Anziano Morgan. So, right before the lesson, Faggioli came and told me he felt very strongly that I should be the one teaching them instead of him. So, we switched and I went in and taught them the Word of Wisdom. It went really well and the spirit was really strong! R* is really trying to follow all the Word of Wisdom now and G* is trying to cut back on coffee and cigarettes right now. It is fantastic! I am loving watching them progress! It is incredible to see them make changes in their lives. Right now the language is coming along really well. This week I have felt very confident in speaking to people and I can understand pretty well what they say back to me. It has been good! We have talked to a few people on the street this week and I have given out two Books of Mormon, so hopefully some new investigators come out of that. 

Life in Caserta is great and everything is going pretty well! I love being here! One big bummer right now though is the weather. The last 6 days have been crazy hot and crazy humid. It is so gross going out fresh feeling and coming home at lunch feeling all sticky... I hate humidity. This is just the real beginning of the hot weather though, so I need to get use to it. I cant complain too much. Just being in Italy outweighs the weather. I am enjoying things very much! District Leader isnt too hard, it feels like a lot of extra work, but it is going alright. Oh, and this last Sunday President Kelly came to our branch and talked and it was great! I will miss him a lot when he leaves next week. Our new President comes in next Friday, it is kind of crazy and I dont know exactly what to expect. Well, Life is good and the work is moving forward!

Sincerely,

Anziano Burton
