I apologize in advance. Thank goodness for P-Days, that’s all I have to say! We had a good week last week! We […]
Cara famiglia, It was another beautiful week, filled with rain, lots of yummy food, and beautiful moments in church and progressing investigators. The week was hard, as we are working our hearts out to help a couple of investigators keep their commitments!! Let me just say, orzo is becoming our best friend… kinda working… it […]
Buon giorno cara famiglia, Live missionary experience: Sharing with the gospel with the woman on the computer next to you. Yep, you all just witnessed it 🙂 Haha. She’s super sweet, a little crazy, and took that pass-along card without any interest in giving us her number. But, seed planted!! YAY! Onto the week’s experiences. […]
La mia famiglia e i miei amici, Grazie per your emails and everything. I just want you all to know that you are in my prayers every moment, and if I’m not praying, my heart is in continuous prayer like it talks about in Alma 34. I promise 🙂 It has been such a week! […]
Ciao cara famiglia, Sorry I haven’t emailed for a couple of weeks. Christmas fell on P-day so I didn’t really have time to email. But it has been a great couple of weeks, filled with sweet missionary work experiences. Last night for New Years Eve we had to be inside all night, which I can […]
Cara famiglia, Come state? Buon Natale! ONE WEEK TILL CHRISTMAS! Let me tell you why Christmas as a missionary is the best. All that I worry about is helping others come unto Christ, and that’s what Christmas is all about, right? I’m sorry this email will be shorter than usual, just not feeling in the […]
Buon Natale famiglia, For some reason, writing this email in English seems to be a struggle. Voglio scrivervi in Italiano perché penso in Italiano. Comunque, I mean, anyways, ah! Okay. English, here we go. This week has been COLD! And crazy! And good. We also had a cool little miracle on Saturday. We met a […]

Buongiorno la mia cara famiglia, Rimini. Rimini is a bellissima città. I love this place with all of my heart. My companion and I have poured my heart into this branch, this beautiful little tourist, freezing beach town. This week, we found 5 new investigators! We finally taught a member referral that we have been […]
My week was hard and beautiful at the same time. Such is life. There were lots of little moments that made it all worthwhile. Highlights for the week: – Teaching the husband of one of our members. C’era un bellissimo Spirito. This family loves music and opera and all things, so Sorella Ervin was in […]
Cara famiglia, It’s getting cold here in Rimini! I’d imagine it is at home too (not):) and HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANNA! I ate gelato to celabrate for you, I promise. And I sent you something in the mail so let me know when you get it. Writing in English is getting more and more difficult. I […]
Every week I hesitate what to write. I feel like I have to write something inspirational, creative, poetic, or extremely deep 🙂 We’ll go for a couple funny stories today 🙂 I love seeing the beauty in the every day moments of life, especially on the mission. We have so much to be thankful for. […]
Cara famiglia, Ready to hear some really awesome stories for this week? Where to begin… Friday after a meeting we had with our branch mission leader we had an appointment with some members out in San Marino. (We have been trying to visit them for a long time, and we are happy that we finally […]
Cara famiglia, It has been a great week! Let me tell you about Saturday. So we were invited to go with a bunch of our members and their non-member friends to find castigli…chestnuts. Have you ever gone searching for chestnuts? Let me tell you, it is difficult. And Italians are a little picky about what […]
Buongiorno tutti! So I am typing three times as slowly today because the keyboard space bar barely functions. I am trying to be Christ-like and not complain and just deal with it 🙂 I will not type very much today though because it is taking me a long time. We found out transfer news this […]
This week in Rimini has been…. cold, and rainy, and wet, and yet beautiful. And did I mention rainy? I miss the sun a little bit. (But hey, at least I’m not serving in Russia where it’s probably snowing right now.) Last week, after P-day ended and we taught a lesson, my companion got sick […]
Once again, we have had another great week in Rimini. And when I say great, I mean it, because it’s all about how you look at it. Thursday, we had a scambio with the travelling sorelle. It was so needed and I learned so much. We found two new investigators. My companion found a woman […]
