Buon giorno!

Recently the sun has been back, we've been walking all over as usual, and we're very excited because this Saturday and Sunday is what's called General Conference.

Basically it means that we get to listen to the prophet and 12 apostles and other leaders of the church. (We can and should, of course, pray for ourselves and ask God himself if these leaders are speaking for him or not.) See http://mormon.org/mormonorg/eng/basic-beliefs/the-commandments/follow-the-prophet.

Other than this, we are very happy to be talking with people every day, seeing more wonderful people, and sharing what makes us happy. Sorry for the short email, but I had to check on the Sagra della Pesca, if our church has stuff in Sinhala, and then a quick look at some photos (thanks Dad :). As always there are a million and one things to do. We're off to get new shoes for Slla Smith, who is more and more amazing every day.
