"The weather is warm and the gospel is true! That makes me one happy missionary!"

Hey gang! This week on #whatsmysnack we have Some authentic Italiano pasta made by the hands of a full blown Italian! Elder Bonvissuto was tired of me telling him that the pasta the members fed us was good haha he said, "I'll make you good pasta!" It was very simple but super good. It was just pasta cooked perfectly, butter, lemon, tuna, and salt! It was probably the best pasta I've had honestly. Living with an Italian isn't too shabby. 

It's been a while! Because Monday was Memorial Day, President Bingham had us change our Preparation day to Tuesday, except we had new missionary training on Tuesday so we had to wait until Thursday! Memorial day was great tho, except that there were major thunderstorms and tornado warnings! We were tracting and were teaching this guy named Mike on his porch and his tv was on inside. While we were talking about the Book of Mormon the tornado warning came on the tv and we heard it but just kept teaching. No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing.

Unfortunately Betsy didn't go through with her baptism last week. To make a long story short, she does not have the testimony that this is the only true church. We fasted with her on Sunday and she told us she got her answer that she needs to stay in the Catholic church. Sad. But Elisette, Nathan, and Tyler are all still doing very well!

I got to have a departing interview with president Bingham which was awesome!! He is definitely a role model of mine. It's incredible how much knowledge and infinite wisdom that man has! We talked for a good hour and a half. He gave me some great advice. I sure will miss him when he leaves in 3 weeks!

The weather is warm and the gospel is true! That makes me one happy missionary! I love and miss y'all, have a great week!
