I sordi e una rosa-letter from 4/2/14

Carissima famiglia,
No worries, I’m staying here in Firenze for another transfer!  You know, I get to spend all the major holidays in one of the most beautiful cities in the world? Thansgiving, Christmas, New Years Eve, Valentines Day, Easter, Mother’s day, and my birthday.  Woo hoo! AND GENERAL CONFERENCE IS THIS WEEKEND! I am so so so excited.  I love general conference because I just feel so united with the entire church all across the world.  And, I am praying for a lot of things and I know a lot of my concerns will be answered this weekend.  Pray for our baptism this weekend and that everything will work out! I’m getting ready for probably one of the best weekends of my life.  So please please pray for us 🙂
Let’s see, what happend this week.
We prayed with a Sicilian under this bridge covered in graffiti and he bought us a rose.
We had a big finding activity at this park that kind of worked… sort of… Our branch misison leader made these posters and.. yeah it was pretty funny.
We have a deaf member in our branch and we went to do a finding activity at this deaf home in Florence.  THat was crazy and awesome because we are trying to communicate in a language that none of us know.   It was a spiritual experience really.   Now i need to just learn Italian sign language.  One step at a time…
I just love my companion!  She makes me laugh every day, and has the biggest heart and the sweetest and most beautiful testimony.  I learn so much from her and she is so so strong!
Love you all!  Sorry, I don’t have much to write this week, but next week will probably be super long so I’m making up for it now.
This church is true!
Vi voglio bene,
Sorela Strong
