Conference!

Dear Family,

Wow. Wasn't conference amazing??? I unfortunately wasn't able to see it all, but what I saw was incredible. Our little branch is small, so they didn't broadcast the conference here in Savona. I think everyone watched it at home via interenet. We went to Genova where I was able to run into a few old faces from my transfer there. It was fun to see and finally understand them! (David- Kyoto Tinoco says hello) There was also a huge herd of missionaries, almost all our zone. Most of them watched conference in English on the church computer. Sorella Bringas and I were with the members and watched in the chapel in Italian. As the conference started I realized I was faced with the problem of how to take notes, in Italian because that's what I was hearing or in English because I can actually write quickly and record my thought easier. I ended up with a wonderful mix, but by the end I had a system figured out. 

We were able to watch the Relief Society Broadcast and the Saturday Morning session on Saturday night. Then Sunday we were to watch the Saturday Afternoon and Sunday Morning. Unfortunately we somehow got the hours mixed up and missed the first half of Saturday Afternoon. Now we get to wait until the Liahona to read the rest. 

I think my favorite talk so far was that of Elder Uchtdorf in the Saturday Morning session it was absolutely beautiful! 

We're into week five on the transfer which means it's Sorella Bringas's turn to be senior companion for a week. I must say that she's doing an excellent job. It's fun to see her putting into practice the thing's we've studied together. 

I love you all! Keep being amazing! Find ways to share the gospel. It's all in the small and simple things.

Love, 
Sorella Pace
