La Sorella in Italia: Be Not Weary in Well Doing

Dear Family,

Thanks for the soup recipies! I can't wait to try some out.

So this week I discovered a scripture in D&C 64:33-34 ''Pertanto, non stancatevi di far bene, poiché state ponendo le fondamenta di una grande opera. E ciò che è grande procede da piccole cose. Ecco, il Signore richiede il cuore e una mente ben disposta; e coloro che sono ben disposti e obbediente mangeranno le buone cose della terra di Sion in questi ultimi giorni.'' Sorry I didn't feel like looking it up in English. But look it up, because it's a really good scripture. ''Be not weary in well-doing.'' I've been thinking about this scripture a lot the past couple of days and how I can better apply it to my work as a missionary. I love the knowledge that there is nothing better that I could be doing with my life right now than serving a mission. I'm in the work of 'well-doing' and I love it with all my heart. There are times when you meet someone on the street. They may not be interested in hearing about the gospel, but you're given a glimpse of the love that our Heavenly Father feels for that persone and it's an amazing moment. And then you're sitting on a park bench or on a staircase with an investigator or less active that you've been working with for months and they bear a powerful testimony of the gospel or the Book of Mormon and you feel God's love so strongly. It's amazing, it's a miracle each time.

I love you all!!!!

Have a wonderful week!

Sorella Pace
