First week of my last transfer!! I can't believe that time has flown by so fast!! I will be staying here in the Rome 5 area, working at the Visitor Center, and training until my time is up.
This last week was my first full week with my greenie and it's been a lot of fun! All the lessons that I've learned through my time in the mission so far are really helping now as I train.
This week we were able to be out of quarantine fully again, so we have been working hard at the Visitor Center and seeing lots of miracles. We found a lady through facebook and scheduled a tour with her and she was able to come with her friend and they both really enjoyed it and want to do another one!
It has been a real joy for me teaching my new companion all the amazing things about the Visitor Center; in English and Italian. We had a tender moment with an older lady from Northern Italy during a tour with her. She had been having a rough time and really needed to feel the spirit. She told us after the tour that it was an incredible experience. She felt the spirit so strongly and loved that the tour was interactive. She said that day we were her angels. I love doing these virtual tours because the spirit in the Visitor Center is truly so strong and it can even be felt through zoom. We frequently have the opportunity to meet people from all around the world and bear testimony of the Savior.
I am so excited to make my last transfer the best one yet! We are determined to find and schedule as many tours as we can and remain very busy! We were able to have two appointments with members this week also which was so nice. I really have such a deep love for the Italian people.
My greenie and I are doing great and have many plans and goals for this transfer. I'm very excited and so grateful for this time I have left. I'm beginning to realize how much growth I've experienced over the past 17 months and I feel like I'm flying!!
Here's to 7 more weeks!!
Ciao, Ciao
