"I will hasten my work in its time." (D&C 88:73)

This past month has been an exciting time for the Italy Rome Mission. We have welcomed 24 new missionaries to the Italy Rome Mission, hosted Elder and Sister Tad R. Callister (who were in Rome for the reorganization of the Rome Italy Stake Presidency), and are now working through a new round of Zone Conferences. We also had the opportunity to visit Malta, a beautiful island that is part of our mission.

With the surge in missionaries, this is an exciting and unique time to be a full-time missionary. We are so impressed with the new missionaries that have entered the Italy Rome Mission. They are prepared, capable, and full of light. It is such a joy to see them work and grow as they devote everything they have to serve the Lord.

20 New Missionaries from the Provo MTC! May 2013.

April 2013. We were blessed to have some of our missionaries taught by
Elder and Sister Tad R. Callister, who were in Rome for the reorganization
of the Rome Italy Stake Presidency. Elder and Sister Callister are  gifted
teachers of the Gospel. Their visit blessed the Rome Mission.

Sweet is the Work. Reaching a Goal is SWEET! We are so
proud of our missionaries who worked hard to acheive
a mission goal. Keep up the great work!
