Savona

Dear Family,

School has started again here in Italy, signaling the end of summer.
That's clearly evident as we travel past the beaches, they are looking
very abandoned lately. The weather has started to follow the autumn
trend leaving the mornings, evenings, and nights cooler. I'm content
with the change, I think it's the perfect temperature. Sorella Bringas
is not. She's not very excited for this winter.

This transfer our little district of San Remo and Savona has grown! We
now have a booming three companionships, with a new area being opened
in Imperia relatively close to San Remo. I think it's the first city
to be opened in the mission for a couple years.
The big wave of sisters has ended and now we're being flooded with
elders. I think this past group was the same size of mine in the MTC,
but only 4 sisters arrived in the Milan Mission.

We're keeping busy with our investigators, less actives, and the
constant search for new people to teach. We would really love to find
a family this transfer.

This morning I was thinking back a couple years when Dad returned from
education week with the list of motivation factors. Love's at the top
of that list. How true that is, expecially in missionary work. We can
go through the actions, but without that love the crucial piece is
missing. When we have that love, the pure love of Christ for everyone
we meet, is when the miracles occur.

Vi voglio bene!!!

Sorella Pace
