Rina and Lisa - October 13, 2008

Sorry it has been so long since I updated. I have been sick as a dog. But I'm all better now and I have some exciting news!

First of all, I still love my Italian classes! My teachers are hilarious and my classmates are a lot of fun. Everyday, Daniele and Daniella reassure us that what we are learning is very easy-haha. Yeah...for them.

There is a new woman in my class who is from Brazil, which is neat for me. She does not speak any English at all, so it was fun to try and have a conversation with her in Italian. Notice, I said try.

The Woodroof's went to worship in Milan yesterday. So it was just Chad and I that went to the church in Florence. We were a little nervous about not having any translators, but it went really well! I was asked to help teach the kids class, which of course, I was really excited about! I love kids! One of the teachers came here as an Avanti worker about 18 years ago! She got married and has 3 sweet children. She helped me with translating.

I had my first English lesson/Bible study today! It was with a sweet woman named Rina and her daughter, Lisa. She lives in Scandicci and attends the Catholic church. The study went very well and I am so excited to begin working! They even scheduled to come back separately, which shows they are very interested! Please pray for them, and for David, Chad, and I as we continue our Bible studies.
