Boots and niggles (British words that we don't use in American English, but I'm going to

use now as much as I can)

Caro famiglia,

I had a wonderful week. This week we had MISSION CONFERENCE. It was

life changing fantastic. The general authorities who came and spoke to

us were President Kearon and President Sabin. President Kearon is the

area president of Europe and he's British, and I'm such a fan!

Everything he said was made cooler by his accent, I could have

listened to him all day. Like it wasn't just his accent, he was also

super wise and inspired. The mission conference ended up being nothing

that I expected it to be, but everything that I needed. I've just been

quoting it all day every day since, and practicing my British accent,

and oh my goodness it was just so great. I could just binge watch

episodes of President Kearon, he's such a great speaker. Anyways,

that's probably weird.

Soooo, other than that, we did two scambi this week so I was barely

companions with Sorella Groll, on top of the having four of the Bari

sisters stay with us one night for the conference and then the next

night I slept at the Villa for the leadership conference. I missed

her! I love Sorella Groll.

It rained A LOT, but also people are a lot nicer to you when you're

soaking wet and still trying to preach the gospel, haha.

Our friend came back from India and she got us Sahrees (how do you

spell that?). Sahri...Sorry...sawree? I don't know, but WOW. So

pictures to come, and she is going to teach us how to wear them first.

Also she let us taste a type of Indian fudge, MAMMA MIA, CHE BONTÀ!

Then this week something that made me sad, was just like no one seemed

to be keeping their commitments. NO ONE. We asked one woman what might

be holding her back, and she was just like, "well, the biggest reason,

is really just laziness. Because it's not like I can't find five

minutes during the day to read the scriptures". Yes! I love that woman

she's so real. I'm sad of people saying "I can't, sorry I just

couldn't", and it made me reflect of how Heavenly Father must feel

when we don't keep our promises. He only asks us to do the things that

will bring us the most happiness. So I thought, wow, what can I be

doing better? Surely there are a lot of things, and "can't" has just

got to get out of the vocabulary. He always provides a way! It's all

about acting, and being agents.

Birthday shout outs to- Courtney, Jennifer and Yesenia!!!! I love you

beautiful women.
