This week was so cool! We had a lesson with this cool part member family, called the Blaz family. They are so cool! The investigators are the 2 sons aged 12 and 11. They are incredible, and ask so many good questions. It was a really cool lesson. Did I mention it was cool?

Also this week, the Anziani had a baptism! His name is Gary, and he is the husband of a member. Ok, I love the story, so I'll tell it! He is from Portorico, were he was baptized at age 11. He was a strong member, but started to fall a way when he moved to Rome. During the move, the records were lost, and he became offended, because the true church wouldn't forget about people. So, he stopped going. He then met his wife, who became an investigator of the Anziani about 5 years ago. She was baptized and found out about her husband. She began trying to bring him to church, but he said he will come when he is ready. Well, he came for the primary program to surprise his son, and has come ever since. The Anziani started teaching him, and he was re-baptized on Friday! It was so amazing! He was so happy and so was his family. I love seeing baptisms that unite the family. It's amazing when anyone gets baptized, but when a family come together instead of just one, it's really special. I saw what a difference it made for the wife to have her husband united with her. Families are so important! My testimony of that was strengthened this week, for sure!

I've stopped biting my nails, and my companion bought this nail strengthening sort of nail polish treatment... we are trying hat out, we'll let you know how that goes! Haha.

Transfers are next week, so I will probably get a new companion... who will it be?!? Stay tuned 😝
