Ciao tutti!! Come state voi? It's so exciting to hear everything that's happening back home! I can't believe Katherine's graduating!!! I wasn't sure if it was this week or next week. And then it's off to China! And that's awesome that Ceci got into that singing group! At least that's what 
it sounded like from the title. Auguri!! Well, news from this week. It's been another crazy one! First off, we moved apartments!! We got the news Monday after we had just gotten back from Genova for Sorella Stewart's permesso that we would be moving the very next day! So basically I've slept in different beds three nights in a row when you count the scambio we had yesterday with the Bergamo sorelle. The new apartment is really nice though! The best feature is that it has AC, which is very hard to find in Italy. Just in time for the hot summer months, which will be coming very soon! Yesterday was really great because we had a member of the 70 come, Ted R. Callister, to speak to all the missionaries in the mission. I learned so much! He talked in detail about the plan of salvation and how to become a consecrated missionary. It really boosted me up! I also got to play a musical number on the violin of I need thee every hour, which went great even though it was very last minute. Right after the conference we did another scambio with the Bergamo sorelle. This time I was with Sorella McNamarra in Bergamo. I love that city so much! The people there are so friendly. I forgot to tell you last time that on my last scambio with Sorella Gjika we did contacting on a road called Via Giovanni Battista Moroni! I wish I had taken a picture! This past weekend we got asked to play for a wedding for a family in our ward. It is an older couple named Silvana and Antonio. Sorella Friolo asked me to play a piece on the violin for when she enters, and then Sorella Stewart accompanied one of our members, Elvira, who sang a jazz song called "At Last." She has an AMAZING voice! I had no idea until this last weekend and I've been here four transfers! The wedding was really great though, and the newlyweds are so cute! Antonio just got baptized a month ago. Well, I think that's all the big news. We are having a lot of wonderful experiences with our investigator, Alberto. He has a baptismal date for May 11th, along with our nine-year-old, Anabella. I love seeing how he has changed from when we first met him in the park two months ago. He came to church because he felt the spirit as we were talking, and now he has come this far to really have the desire to be baptized and make changes in his life. It is so beautiful! The ward is helping us so much, too. Well, I love you all so much, and I know this gospel is true! Con tanto amore,Sorella Lyman P.S. Sorry this email is coming a day late. We had to move our P-day because of the conference with Ted R. Callister yesterday!

These pictures are from when Sorella Stewart and I went to Genova this past Monday for her permesso. We walked to a higher point to get to this view where you can see the port with the lighthouse, and a lot of Genova from the mountainside. It was beautiful!!
