Hola,
I don't have much time to email today, I gotta go pack!
Today has been one of the hardest days here. I don't want to
leave, but I know I'm ready for Chile. We sent Hermana Gauger off to Bolivia at 5'00 this morning and that was rough. I have grown so
close to these people these past six weeks. We have been through so much together, its hard to imagine that we won't be together
anymore.
I am nervous for the transition from the MTC into the field.
I'm really praying that I have a good trainer. I think that's my biggest fear at the moment besides teaching actual investigators.
Yesterday was an awesome day though! Because it was our last
Sunday here, we had the opportunity to bear our testimonies. Our branch president said we could share them in English if we wanted
to, but then the MTC president walked into our meeting with his wife, ( He is a
very intimidating man...) and the Branch President gave us
this look of 'your testimony better be in Spanish' Our whole district went up there and bore very powerful testimonies, in the most
amazing Spanish I have ever heard any of them speak. I can't believe how far we
have come in the last 6 weeks. Later that day, my companion and I
were walking out of a devotional and the MTC president came up to us and said "You Hermanas are amazing!", we literally almost died. If you
only knew how bad this man scares us and how rare it is to get a compliment from him, you would die to. We were feeling pretty good
after that!
These next few days are gonna be hard. But I know I will be
okay. Please pray for my district and I. Pray that we will be able to transition into Chile well, that we will be blessed with the
gift of tongues and understanding. We are gonna need it.
Well that's all I have time for today. I'm off to the
airport in less than 3 hours! Wish us luck! Next email will be from CHILE!!!!
Love you guys!
