Well… When I first got to Lecce there were 0
investigators. I don’t really know why. But! This week we have done a ton of
contacting and now have a few people to teach and a lot of contacts! So I am
very, very excited about that.
Haha... Okay I do have to say this really quickly. So my
companion loves comic books, star wars, etc. And so did his last companion. So
the three potentials they did have all worked at the comic book shop or were
super into Star Wars, Pokemon, etc! It has been super funny running into these
old investigators/friends that the last Anziani have made. But! They did see
some success out of it and I am convinced they were meant to serve together.
They reactivated 2 people that are super, super into comic books and World of
Warcraft. Haha. Classic.
Our one new investigator is actually the ex-step father
of one of the kids that they reactivated. I am super excited for him because he
is trying to repair relationships that he broke in the past with his kids.
Should be a good thing!
This week we have Zone Conference and here are some
questions from Mom.
How is life in the
apartment with four Elders? Crowded? Fun? Strange?
Yes. Yes. And Yes. So my Companion and another one are
actually pretty calm. Actually the other two are very calm as well. Actually
now that I think about it I am the only wild one in the house. But! It is
crowded and impossible to keep clean. So nobody really does keep things clean
sadly. I do pride myself in being the cleanest person in the house though!
Who are the other
Elders you live with?
Elder Ben Burton from Olympus High School and Canden
Peterson from Singapore. He spent the last 7 years of his life in Singapore. He
is like a 6 foot 4 super blonde haired blued kid so I don’t know how he ended
up in Singapore but all the facts check out that he did in fact live in Singapore
a lot of his life.
How do you arrange
cooking? Where do you contact?
Well. Sadly everybody just kind of does their own thing.
However! This week I convinced everybody that we should each take a turn
cooking lunch for all the other people in the house. Which mean 4 meals I have
to cook and 3 meals I get to taste the other people’s food. Elder Peterson’s
food is very good. Asian.
We do contacting mostly in the streets around Centro
(which is the old part of the city). All of the streets just around Centro are
full of people and usually the tourists stay inside Centro. So it tends to work
out pretty nicely. We have started to lay down a big sheet and draw on it with
chalk things like Plan of Salvation, English Course stuff, or anything else
while the other person talks with people. That works pretty well and if the
Police Man gets mad you just have to pick up your sheet and leave. Works pretty
nice actually.
Do you have a ward
or branch?
It is a branch of about 30 people. I really like the
branch here.
Thanks for everything! Ciao Ciao Ciao!
