Letter #21 and Pictures from Bari, Italy

This week has been wonderful. We had many great miracles. One of the biggest was when we passed by a simpatizzante that we were thinking of dropping. They were home (most of the family is investigators) and we were able to teach the first lesson. The spirit was there and now they are progressing. We saw them the next day and we will see them Friday. Also, the daughter Adriana, and the Mother, Angela, are going to try to come to church on Sunday!!! I am very excited for them all.

P-Day in Ostuni (Also known as Minas Tirith the White City from Lord of the Rings)

Today we are going to Ostuni, the white city AKA - Minas Tirith!!! (Editor's Note: From Lord of the Rings filming locations). We have found all of the locations from Lord of the Rings. Ostuni = Minas Tirith. Matera = Rohan. Albero Bello = The Shire. On our way to Albero Bello Sorella Fuller asked where we were going because she did not understand. Then she saw a Trulli and she said, " Oh my goodness - we are going to the Shire. It's a Hobbit's house!!" The whole time at Albero Bello she was trying to find a short person. :) HAHAHA We have not found Mordor yet, (I THINK IT MIGHT BE BARI :( but I hope not :)
