Vicenza - Week 12

Hey everyone!!
This week marks the end of my first transfer in Italy! Only 15 more to go haha. Everyone in my district in Vicenza is remaining the same. We all are excited to continue the fun work we started together. The week went by with some pretty exciting moments. On Saturday, one of our English Class students, Julio, asked if I wanted to play tennis with him, and seeing this as a great opportunity to create a good relationship with a potential investigator, of course I had to reply with a yes. So I got to play tennis with him, in a domed court. It was a blast and we were playing really hard, and it was just a load of fun.
Sunday was just as great. Right after the American ward, I was sitting in the kitchen making some investigator calls, and in walks Brother Barnson! I was really surprised to see him, but boy was I happy! Not many people get to see their friends or anyone they know while on a mission, so I am very blessed right now. We got to talk for a bit and we hope to get lunch together soon. It was a pretty great miracle.
We also had a talent show in the Italian branch. There were some pretty cool talents people had. Massimo F. played the tenor sax to a really upbeat jazz song, another member teaches Shaulin (a type of intense karate) so he gave us a demonstration of the types of stuff he does. He is in really good shape and it was unbelievable what he did. And then there were lots of singing, and funny skits.
We had some scambios this week too. I was with Elder C. for Monday and Tuesday. We like doing scambios, because we believe scambios bring miracles, and it has. It also helps that we all like each other a lot and can just do it whenever.
Our focus this transfer is on taking a weakness of ours and making it a strength just like it says in Ether 12:27. Also we want to focus on spreading cheer and joy by helping reactivate less actives, and bringing them back to the joy they once had.
Things are going great, and it is just one big flow. Starting to get a little cold, but other than that everything is going great!
