Old Faces.....
The week of zone conference. It's always a good one, you get a free lunch, see friends and grow spiritually. I was able to actually see some old comps, like Anziani Jackson and Fryer. Both of whom I really enjoyed and wished I could have done more than just one transfer. Thursday rolled around and I realized I hadn't eaten a pizza in a week and started hyper ventilating. It's kind of sad, none of the pizza I will ever eat again will be the same as Napoli pizza. However, Sicily is known for their deserts, like Conolo! Man that is some good stuff. The work is going along great, hopefully we'll find some success this transfer. We met a really cool guy last Sunday showing the Christmas video the church has put out and he ended up coming to church and is doing really good. Here in Palermo we have a pretty cool ward. Yep, a ward! First one I've been in, and the members are really down for missionary work, so I'm excited about that. For P-day we went on a super fun hike and ended up seeing some sheep. So that's that.
During zone conference this week we talked a lot about the fall and
Adam and Eve. A lot of people who are not of our faith think it was a bad thing, something that has cursed all mankind, but in reality it was all apart of God's plan.
In 2 Nephi 2:22-24 it says:
"22 And now, behold, if Adam had not transgressed he would not have fallen, but he would have remained in the garden of Eden. And all things which were created must have remained in the same state in which they were after they were created; and they must have remained forever, and had no end.
23 And they would have had no children; wherefore they would have remained in a state of innocence, having no joy, for they knew no misery; doing no good, for they knew no sin.
24 But behold, all things have been done in the wisdom of him who knoweth all things."
It is because of the fall that all of us are here. It's because of the fall that we feel happiness in this life. Pretty cool huh? Anyways hope everyone has a good week! Much love! 🤙
