9/16

Dear Family and Friends,

Sorry but this week I don't really have time to write an email so I have copied and pasted some statements in my letter to our mission president. It was a crazy day yesterday so we got permission to use 20 min to email today! I love you all and hope you have a great week!

Well, I feel as though it might be a little bit clique always saying the same thing but it has been another great week her in Caserta. The work is really starting to go forward. We have some good work but we both know that we are going to have to work a really hard this next transfer to try and get some new people to teach.

First off, Anziano B and I are happy to be able to serve together for another transfer. I hope to continue to learn and grow from his example.

 

We had stake conference and after that I think that everyone in this zone is really going to recieve that push to go forward. President D really gave some amazing talks that made me think like it was general conference just a few weeks early. The mission president gave a great talk about member missionary work and that will be a big focus here in Caserta in the next little while. Members are everything to us and we hope to be able to help by teaching their friends and family after the manner of the spirit. We also have talked to our ward mission leader to get a copy of the stake and ward missionary plan as something that we can look at, ponder and pray about to try and get the work here to really burst forward. As I have said in the recent past we have been blessed with so many miracles that it is hard even to count them.

We have had some good work with those we are teaching as well this week as they are beginning to work toward their baptismal dates at the beginning of october. We are excited that we are seeing the interest of lots of youth here and as youth begin to feel the spirit, they are the best at sharing it with friends and family. Our investigators that are progressing are really looking up and are, what we would like to think, the "future" so to speak of the wards and branches here in this area. The more we work with the youth the more the future of the church will grow. I thank the Lord for all that He does in this work and for the trials and blessings that He gives to us. 

I hope everyone is doing well and that you all have great weeks!!

 Love 

Anziano Passantino
