A baptism this week?

Buongiorno Tutti!!!

Che bello!!!

Well it has been a very nice week with some great successes! We have had some interesting things happen and it is all pretty awesome! So we received a referral from Milan of this African man named U*. So he has been taught all the lessons up north and he has come to be baptized because his mother is a member here in oristano. That is a nice little surprise that happened this week. So now we have to plan a baptism and everything for this next Saturday. That will Be awesome. We also set another baptismal date on the 27th of September for R*. We taught the first lesson with her and it went fantastic! Anziano Flynn did great inviting her to keep commitments and teaching and bearing testimony. She has soooo many questions about the Church. She came to Church yesterday and made friends with some of the members and we are excited for this next week and to see how everything goes. Really it will be awesome! E* and G* weren't able to make it to Church this week, but U* came.

At the beginning of the week we did a scambio with Anziano Hatch the Zone leader and Anziano Wolzl. It went well, Anziano Flynn went with Anziano Hatch the entire time and I was with Anziano Wolzl. We all had a good day of work! Also, during our meeting with the branch presidency we told them that we would like to meet more of the members and stuff and the second councelor Fratello Angius immediately invited us over to lunch and taught us how to make some great Italian dishes. We hope to be getting in with the members a little bit more like that soon. It would really help us to have some lessons in the presence of a member. We are hoping for the best with all of that.

It has been a good week! I can't complain too much. We are looking forward to another great week this next week and hopefully a baptism this Saturday if all goes according to plan. It is going to be great! I hope that all is well at home and that everything is going along nicely. Italy is pretty great!

Sincerely,

Anziano Burton
