Last Week

Ciao!

Well, our last week in Italy has finally rolled around. I must admit, I will be quite sad to go back home. Although it will be good to be back with friends and family, I will definitely miss the Italian culture and the people we've met here.

The plan of action for this week will be to meet with our Italian friends we've made. We will try to introduce them to the missionary staff that live here full time, so that they can follow up after we leave. Tomorrow night we will have an appertivi time (appetizers) at a local cafe that we have invited several of our friends to, as a way for them to also meet the staff. You can pray that students will be willing and able to meet this week before we leave.

On a fun note, tonight I got to go learn how to make several Italian dishes. A local cafe some of the staff know offered to teach our group how to cook. We learned how to make a broth, risotto, two different ragu sauces, two different types of pasta dough, as well as how to shape ravioli, tortellini, and several other pasta shapes. Best of all, we got to eat what we made- it was delicious!! I can't wait to get home and try out some of the new recipes.

Well, I will go for now. Love and miss you all!
