La Sorella in Italia: Perdenone Week 2

Dear Family,

Well, two weeks in Pordenone are almost up and I'm settling in to the city. I'm loving it and my comp. Sorella Pond is wonderful, she's a hard worker but super fun at the same time.

We're also working to get to know the ward better. We just created a new ward mission plan so we're going around and presenting it to all the members. We also hosted an FHE Monday night where we carved pumpkins! Sorella Pond and I didn't really feel like buying pumpkins ourselves, so we took a page from family history and carved pineapples. I'll send some pictures.

Tomorrow we're having a trunk or treat at the church with the American ward which should be fun. Today I had a pumpkin gelato. It was pretty good. I think it would have been better however with a nice dark chocolate instead of the chocolate pear walnut flavor that I also got, but it was fun to try.

While I'm on the food subject, Yesterday the stake president's wife made us broccoli pizza. It was delicious! I don't think I would have ever put broccoli on a pizza, but I loved it.

The work is going well. We ended up giving lots of our invesitgators to the Anziani when they showed up, so we're currently doing a lot of finding. But we're full of faith that we'll find ourselves a lot of new simps.

We have a wonderful less active from Ghana that we're working with. We meet him twice a week in the park and each time we sing several hymns together. I love it!

Today we traveled to Venice and went to Murano, where they blow glass. We were able to watch them make a couple pieces. On the train ride over we could see the Alps. It was beautiful.

I LOVE hearing about everyone's missionary experiences and thoughts. There is nothing better than sharing the gospel. It just fills your whole soul.

I love you all, Have a marvelous week!

Sorella Pace
