Last Transfer ... To Genova!

Anziano Mauldwin and Anziano Barnes at Training Meeting in Milano

Hello!
I have a couple minutes to write because I won't be here on saturday - I'm getting transferred.  I'm going to Genova to be with Anziano Ibba!  I'm super excited because I'll get to finish with an Italian in an incredible city and I get to be the district leader!!!
I want to share a couple cool experiences I had yesterday - it was a super satisfying last day in Milano 3.  We went and taught Gianni - or he taught us actually!  We asked him to study Preach My Gospel and teach us about the gospel of Jesus Christ - he's incredible.  Then, he and Mario came out to do missionary work with me!  They are both incredible.  It felt so good to see him as a super recent convert come out and share what he knows with others.  He is better than most missionaries that I know.  Mario also is doing fantastic!  I love those two so much!  After that, we went and some members had some referrals for us - they were super solid!  These members are incredible - they are the definition of what it means to be a member missionary!  They try to help everyone that they know learn about the restored gospel and they find ways to talk with the people that they don't know yet (like on Sunday as they were coming to church on the bus they talked to a guy and got his number to give to us)! 
I'm doing great!  I love being a missionary!!!!!
So, from here on out I'll be writing on Wednesdays...
Vi voglio bene!
-Anziano Barnes
