Dear Madre,
 
Lunedì sera alla discoteca... Martedì sera alla discoteca... Mercoledì sera alla discoteca...
 
 
Yep that pretty much describes my week...Haha no just kidding. Anziano Armenise has been teaching me some weird italian songs just like that one.
 
This week was GREAT. Let me tell you why.
 
Thursday we went up to visit the anziani in La Spezia and La Spezia is always beautiful. I had some fun up there. Then this weekend we just saw some sweet miracles.
 
I'm going to need you all to start praying for Emilio. He's from Peru. He came to church on Sunday, loved it, and now has a baptismal date for the 16th of July...We have to start praying that he makes it! He speaks very little italian so normally we teach him through the pamphlets...He's loving everything though.
 
On Monday I went to Livorno and I have to tell you something...I love Livorno. Its right on the beach so there was this amazing sea breeze...Oh it was so delightful. Also we were doing an exchange so...naturally...we bought pizza at the end...That's always the best.
 
The work here in Florence, well in Tuscany in general, is really picking up. In Siena they had the first baptism of a family of 4! 4! The number of people that attend there are like 10. We've really been seeing some summer miracles that will not stop.
 
I can't believe everyone moved! I feel so disoriented...Like I have no identity...No that's a lie. That's super crazy though...This time is going by so fast.
 
We are learning Spanish from one of our investigators, Emilio.
 
I love you,
 
Joey
