7/18/12 Update

Ciao Tutti,

First of all, I would like to introduce my new companion. Sorella Taylor hails from Magna, Utah. She has a strong love for others and looks for every opportunity to bring light to the lives of those around her. When we walk down the street, she loves to smile at everyone even for the moment that they are a part of her life. She is definately different from Sorella Teichert, so we are working out what we are do to work with each other to serve the people that we both care about so much.

Lidia continues to be an enthusiastic member of the ward. Her testimony of the restored gospel touches every aspect of her life. She quit smoking to be baptized and now encourages everyone close to her to do the same. She shares with more people than I know of her testimony and the blessings that she has received in her life. It is exciting to keep working with her. I can't wait for our lesson about temples. She had an immediate testimony of the temples and is already looking forward to going to the temple in Switzerland next year. On her kitchen wall already hangs a picture of a temple and I know that she looks at it often.

I learned this week that my ward here has the most youth of any in Italy. I have had some great training in having adventures with the youth from all of my neices and nephews, who I love and pray for often.

Love,

Sorella Lovell

P.S. This week we attended the wedding of one of my special friends in the ward, Simona D'Amuri. It was so sincere and she was radiant. It was such a beautiful experience.
