I have seen so many miracles this week. We had a great appointment with one of the head policemen in Eboli, which is just outside of Battipaglia. His name is Marco. He is interested, but his wife is a little scared and attached to the catholic church, so we did an appointment with him. He loves to talk to vent out all that he feels and put his thoughts in order. The spirit is always strong with him. Then after ward we had a lesson with a family from Bulgary, Juri and Nadia. Another family came that night and we read in john 10:16 that talks about other sheep i have that are not of this fold and then we read 3nephi11 and 17 about the ressurection of Jesus Christ. It was beautiful. THe spirit was there and this great people of faith were filled. The family that came want us to come to their home every Sunday evening and at zone conference we are going to get 20 copies of the Book of Mormon in Bulgarian. We are going to fill this branch with Bulgarians. Our Italian investigators will see their faith and follow their examples. I also followed the spirit two times these past two days, and they were the smallest of promptings and those people were so prepared. One is called Antonio who is in his 20s or 30s and believes in God and Jesus Christ and is humble and normal! THat doesnt happen to often. He works nights and has tons of time to read so he will read the Book of Mormon. The other lady we found yesterday morning. We said Buongiorno and she whispered Good Morning. I didnt think she spoke english, just a word or two like most italians, but i felt to go back and talk with her. It seemed strange to go back, but its not strange unless you make it that way so i went back and it was part of Gods plan. She is from England but has lived here for 28 years. She was waiting for her daughter who was late, and she said that she doesnt believe that that was a coincidence. She is also at a time in her life when she is looking for religion and is having a hard time in her life. She wants to take it slow and see if its what she wants. We have her number and she has ours and she is going to come and find us and read our pamphlet. I was on an altime high after that. I praised my Father in Heaven and thanked him all the morning long. He moves mountains every day, in me and in my investigators. There is so much to say in so little time. Love Elder Beau Brewster
