Our last week in Roma!

Come va?! We are finishing out our last few days on campus! It has been so fun getting to know Italian students and share with them about my relationship with the Lord. Knowing Him is such a radical concept to explain with students here but it's been a privilege to see students view God in a way they've never thought of before and encounter His grace. Students like Lorenzo and Daniele have become my close friends of mine. It has been refreshing to be here and I am going to miss these students immensely.

Hope's mom and friend came in town Sunday so it's been fun sharing the culture with them and see them interact with our students. Also, last week I had a challenging and enjoyable experience speaking at our weekly meeting out of Ephesians and share what the Lord was teaching me. God has put a growing passion in my heart to communicate God's word in front of larger groups and I look forward to having more opportunities to do this when I get back to Chicago!

Pray for us as we finish out our time here, that we will have many opportunities to share Christ's love with Italians these last few days! Ciao ciao-mike
