Its been another good week here. 2 months ago Elder Texiera from the 70, gave us an invite to read the Book of Mormon in 60 days, so, i just finished that up and it was really good. I love that book!
Also this week we went to Catanzaro and i did a baptismal interview that went very well and an exchange with a new missionary and it went well, the only problem was that night there was a big festival right outside the missionary appartment there, and it didnt stop until past 12... i didnt really well, but thats okay. Then we faced some problems there, we got shot at with an airsoft gun and so i went to exchange a few words with the kids that shot at us, then as we left, one of the kids shot at a group of girls walking by, and i just about lost it, but, i know that the Lord would have done a similar thing. Then, on our train home, there was a girl about our age who got on the train and then a a group of very poor-mannered 20 year guys followed her and for the first 10 minutes on the train ride, they were just being so immature and rude, and i couldn't take it anymore, so i went over to them and i just tried to figure out what they were doing, and i just told the guys that they were acting like morons and if they did anything else, i'd let them have it. I went back to my seat, and things quieted down a little bit, but, it was great, because i planted a nice seed for this girl, and when we got off the train, she came up and said thanks, and we gave her our info.

with our work here in Crotone, it's takin a step back. Godfrey cant see us anymore, we think it's because the people in charge of where he lives, wont let him leave to come to church, but, we'll keep trying with him. Also, with The Vaccaro family, our other investigators, it's been a rough week. I'm not sure if you remember the promise that one of our members made to him, but, the member basically said that if you do these things, you will get your answer that the church is true, and if you dont, we will never meet again....
the investigator did these things and didnt get his answer, so, he told us that we had a deal and he said, i'll call you guys if i want to meet in the future. Luckily, a few hours later, he called us and said that he needs help, that he's in really bad shape and he needs us to pray for him. I was really glad when he called us and asked us to pray for him because it shows that he trusts us and that he thinks we will be able to help, and so we went by his house and dropped off a few scriptures for him to read. I'm not sure what will happen, but, im hoping for the best.

Other than that good stuff, we've got a few contacts and we feel like we're going to find some new investigators this week. We just started our English course and i want to do an italian course because there are a ton of immigrants here that don't speak italian. that's about it, i'm excited to get the work moving.

Love you guys,
