I can't believe that Alexis is dating Peachey. That's frickin hilarious to me! I'll send a photo of him in a bit. Whoo boy! Small world!
Mom: (Anziano Peachy told Alexis that in the mission they chant Nathan's last name, Eads and she was curious about it): It's just because my name is so chantable. No, seriously, I have no idea why. Anziano Rasmussen started it in the MTC, and ti's just followed me throughout my mission. I have no control over it. (I'm also a bit of an egotist, so I like the fact that my name is chanted! )
I like Peachey a lot. He's a good kid, and a good missionary, he was definitely one of the best that was in the mission.
Dad: Cool song. I like the fact that you have the video, I just wish I could see it.
Glad that one of your classes is finally done, and that you should be ready to go by December. That's something that's really cool, and I'm happy for you. And thanks for the two weeks off when I come home, and the images, I find those quite enjoyable! Also congrats on the weight lost. I think you'll be tied with me at some point. (six months start next month! Get ready!)
Yes that turquiose tie was one I got over here. Hey, can you guys do a quick check on my account and see how much money I have left? I may be buying some new shirts again during saldi.
Both: I salute in the pictures because I can. I didn't feel like making a "live long and prosper" sign, or the "peace" sign I normally do, so I saluted. Be Happy! I don't plan on going in the military, unless I have no choice.
I'm also very happy with your new diet....kinda. I want to work something out where I can still eat meat, and chocolate. I know that if I keep working out (the magical cure all for wight loss) I'll be fine.
I'm also making plans to go and visit the LadyHawke castle, I'll let you know when I go (aka I'll send pics the next P-Day ).
Tell Kendra that I tell her to stick with the job, and that she needs to respond to my email!
As for my week:
Where to begin? I like starting off with the miracles, so, we'll start with the miracle that happened this week.
On the way home from Conferenza di Zona, we received a phone call from one of our members, Fratello Melone. He said he had recieved a call from a member in Rome 3 who had a friend in the military move to L'Aquila, adn that she was reading the Book of Mormon. We contacted her and invited her to english corse.
Well, on Thursday, she showed up, and after the corse ended, we talked for a little bit. Turns out she was an atheist, but things have happened lately that can't be a coincidenze in her eyes, and then there's the Book of Mormon as well, and she's starting to believe. She has a lot of questions, and this week we plan on teaching the Plan of Salvation to help answer those questions. She really seems to want to learn more, and I know that we can help her with that desire.
So, there's our miracle for this week. The Lord has blessed us with a potentially golden investigator.
Let's see, we also tried out gesso this week, and we managed to have two quality conversations. One of the people we talked too had taken the lessons a year ago. We're hoping that we can find him in the area book and make contact once again. Maybe now he's ready for the Gospel.
We also finally made progress with Iole. She expressed a desire to come to chruch, and she's been keeping her commitments. We tried to set things up with a member who lives near her, but he couldn't do it. However, the member did set up an appointment on Wednesday with all of us, so things worked out.
So,. the Lord has definitely been rewarding our faith, and we're seeing the miracles pop up every where! Things are going really well.
Okay, next week.
NaNa
PS, some pictures will be coming, not just of Peachey
That's Peachey! (Lynda, Nathan's Mom, has been teaching the Williams two daughters for a LONG time the piano. Alexis their oldest daughter is a Cougarette and Peachy has taken her out a few times so thus the small world comment).
What an Anziano looks like after transfers: me after 12 hours of travel from Ragusa via train and bus (10 hours train, 2 hours bus) .
BLOCKBUSTER STILL EXISTS!
Wonderful L'Aquila!
BUNNIES! (Nathan loves bunnies and had a couple as pets growing up. Two were like the white and blacked ear and nose bunny in the first picture. Those are called Himalayan rabbits).
A bacon cheeseburger and that goes with the next picture: Happy 4th of July!
This is a view from our back window, of L'Aquila. Match that!
Me next to a car from the WWII era (cool), and showing off my skinniness.
This is our chalk of the plan of salvation...well, a part of it, for contacting. Yep, people ask questions about it.
