One of our members and her granddaughter from England visiting.

 They are sister in laws and best friends. Elsa, the blonde, just lost her husband. He has had major health problems for the past 5 years and was only given a few months to live.

 Italians do some good things at death, I think, as we have watched two families go through the mourning process. Elsa has had someone or some family staying with her since the death. And this week marks one month, Thursday we will have a remember service for  the family where the family can share their stories of Tomaso and President will give another talk about the Plan of Salvation, but it just for the family and is very low key.

 About a month before Tomaso died he was able to come to church-- he had times when he was stronger and able to come. It was Fast And Testimony Meeting, he shared his Testimony and after the meeting I asked if he would let me video him sharing his testimony, he agreed. On Thursday we will play that video.  Oh the great blessing of technology!

That same day Tomaso was at church, we had a new investigator at church for the first time. Tomaso pulled him in his arm and told him he was doing the right thing to be baptized and encouraged him several times over the 3 meetings. It had a huge impact on Antonio who was baptized a few weeks ago.
