This week we had Zone Conference! Thanks for the letters
(I also got the package from Mom and Dad and was able to a share a cosmic
brownie with a nice girl I met on the train ride back to Lecce). Zone
Conference was good. They talked about using Family History in finding. It’s a
tricky thing but it is different! Italians love their families but family
history doesn’t really seem to interest them. However! In this Zone Conference
we talked about ideas of what things we could try.
So the night of Zone Conference was rough because we had
an English Course Party that we had to make and we had to leave the Conference
early to make it in time. However. There was a big protest on trains and nobody
went in or out of the station for 2 hours. We eventually had to buy a really
expensive fast train to even go to Lecce before like 10 o clock at night. But
it all worked out in the end. We had some members open up the church and try to
get the party started. We showed up at about 8 and everything went okay. I had
fun at least? We also talked with some nice people on the trains.
This week we have done a lot of street contacting. Seeing
miracles and having fun. OH! Also. We have had problems with birds being stuck
in the vent above the stove. They climb in the hole on the roof in the night
and fall down in there. This week we pulled out the 5th bird from the vent in
my 2 weeks here. It is getting super old and the landlord doesn’t seem to want
to do anything about it. So I am going to take matters into my own hands and
put some chicken wire over the hole in the roof. Also this week we got approved
to buy bunk beds. Also very exciting.
President received revelation that we have to do tracting
around "a quarry that is in Lecce.” So that is exactly what we are going
to do.
