To start with the most important news first... (coughcoughcough) I GOT 3
PACKAGES THIS WEEK!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooo and a boat-load of letters!!!!!
Whooooopwhooopp! But now all the elders in my district officially hate me haha.
Poor fellas who don´t have a ´Momma Page´ like mine ;) I´m so excited to go
home and open ´em all up...EARLY CHRISTMAS! whatwhat!
After mom told me that a package for Hermana Barros was in the mail, I told
her that I was going to pray for a package for her. And she (on multiple
occasions) called me crazy and told me no and didnt believe she could get one.
But I just kept asking her, "Donde esta su fe, hermanita??" tehehe....Secret
Santas are the best! Today she was so confused when the elders handed her her
big ´ole package! She is so grateful for it Momma, so thank you! She kept
telling everyone "this is from the family of hermana Page!!" :) (she is gonna
write you an email to say thanks, mom.....but it´ll be in spanish. so dallin or
matt...or google translate should be able to help you).
Oh, one more things about packages that is super funny but slightly
uncomfortable. Our zone leaders and district leaders pick up our mail about once
a transfer and then bring it to us. But of course they are curious, so they read
the customs form on the outside that says whats inside...eh ya mom, next time
PLEASE don´t put "tampons and bra" on the customs form!! Oh how uncomfortable it
is when the other elders ask the ZL´s/DL´s what I got and they turn a little red
and say "ask hermana page youself". Bahahaha...poor little guys.
Anywho, to be honest, I don´t have much to say this week. It´s been a crazy
week...but crazy normal for a missionary. Lots of walking (and sometimes
running). Lessons...spanish (ha)...more walkin.. ya how we do.
Oh! We are in a trio until 18 de December with one of the hermanas of the
other side of Limache (there are 2 areas en Limache), pero ahora we have both
areas to manage. Limache is en our control!!!!!! Nahh, just kiddin´. The only
difference is that know, we walk and contact TWICE as much. Wooo. But I really
like Hermana Lopez and Hermana Barros, so ´erdays a fiesta...but all we want is
una siesta. Haha, see what I did there? Ahhh, I crack myself up
sometimes.
Oh pucha! It´s time to leave!
I love you all and I hope the you all are enjoying the Christmas season!
Please remember your Savior in this of the year. Through Him, we are never
alone; through Him we have hope and joy in this life; and through him, we truly
can live again. Of this I am certain. Oh what joy this sweet sentence gives: I
know that my Redeemer lives. With all my heart I know He lives. Turn to him, and
watch the miracles.
Love you all to the moon and back again. More than words can
describe!
Choose the right.
Love always and always,
Hermana Abigail Page
