Ostia Week 9

A wonderful week

This has been a great week full of exciting things. We kicked off the week by visiting the last church that Micheal Angelo built. It was stunning!! On Tuesday we were able to go and visit Laura. Lately we have been able to only see her once a week because her mom works most evenings. We should be able to start visiting with her twice a week again which is really nice. Our corso is also really starting to grow. We have one corso student who is from Egypt and when he went to visit, he brought us back a gift. He brought each of the missionaries a hand painted papyri scroll. They are all beautiful!

We got a referral this week for a family. We went and visited them on Wednesday. They were very nice and we loved visiting with them. Sadly they do not live in our area, but we got them in contact with the Sorelle near where they live. Saturday we went and visited Humphry and his family.

Friday was a great day! We had Personalized Training in the morning. Personalized Training is like Zone Conference except shorter. It was really good. I really liked the adestramental (training) that the Mission President did. He based his on over coming fears. This is actually something that I have been reading a lot about in my personal study. It is by our faith that we over come our fears. When we fear, we are not focusing on our faith. Every person experiences fear. We all can over come our fears. It is through our faith that we gain the courage to overcome our worst fears. Identify at least one fear and try to think ways that you can do to grow your faith and overcome your fears this week.

This has been a great week for me. I hope all of you have a wonderful week!
