This week we had intercambios (splits) with the sister training
leaders..and it was my turn to stay in Limache. Needless to say, I was a bit
nervous after they called us cause it was going to be my the first time in
Limache without Hermana Barros. And then after the sister training leaders phone
call, our district leader called and asked if I could teach in the district
meeting the next morning...and that the assitants were going to be there. Of
course I said yes, but after I hung up, I kind of had a panic attack (not gonna
lie). The next day, there were no buses in Limache so we were late to
intercambios and then late to the district meeting...and so when we got to the
district meeting we started opening the door saying "lo siento, lo siento, lo--
PRESIDENTE??" ...Yep, the mission PRESIDENTE was sittin´ in one of the chairs
cause he had decided to attend the meeting as well. I about turned around and
left the meeting..or died right there, one or the other. Talk about crazy day,
ya?? It was crazy when ya think about all the stuff that happened. But to be
honest, it was one of my favorite days in my mission so far! I think it´s
because I kinda of proved to myself that I know more than I think I know, that I
can lead out, and that I am a good missionary. It was a day of...progress? Ehh,
that´s not the right word, but my english is failing me and I can´t think of the
one I want. That´s a good sign right??
And there is no doubt in my mind that the only reason things worked out
okay and I was about to do everything during intercambios is through the grace
and power of the Lord. I prayed like the dickens during all of this, and I know
that the Lord was there helping me every step of the way..with spanish, with
confidence, with remembering stuff, with the spirit, with TODO. I am so grateful
that we have a merciful and powerful Savior who can help us with each unsure
step and make our weakness strengths. Surely he is a God of miracles :)
yyyyyyy Yep, but other than that, it was a normal ´ole week in the life of
a missionary...and I´m here, livin´ the life :)
(Oh and yes Mom, I got more letters! But I myself won´t get them til our
next district meeting....and the zone leaders are going to ViƱa next week, so
I´m hoping they will come back with my Christmas package! YAAAYY
CHRISTMAS)
Let´s all for this week folks!
I love you all there and back again!! Thank you for your prayers and
letters and emails and for being my family/friends. Y´all mean the world to
me!
Til next week!
Love always and always,
Hermana Abigail Page
