#72

Oh man...what a week! So to start it off, we left early monday morning to go down to Málaga for concilio- which was amazing! I got to see Hermana Read my old comp again, and see lots of people I love for the last time. It was an amazing experience.


Then right after concilio, we did intercambios, and I was out of my area and worked in Sevilla with an Hermana Ashby from Washington! It was fun because I´ve been around her area a few times in the mission but had never worked with her, so it was fun getting to know her! Then on Wednesday afternoon we got back, and Friday morning we had zone meeting and I had to give my ´´dying testimony´´ so that was surreal. In January, when Hermana Bangerter died I was bawling and dreaded that moment of the dying testimony, because I knew it would come fast for me. And it did, way to fast. But in the moment I didn´t have tears, and I didn´t really cry tons saying goodbye to people. Until I said goodbye to Hermana Garcia, my hija in the mission. That was sad, haha but I still think i´ll be seeing her before I leave, just the thought of leaving her makes me sad, I love that girl! 

But then right after that I went to go do an intercambio in Huelva with an Hermana Rodriguez and that was fun! Except for that I have really bad allergies and have been coughing and being gross since Thursday night so that was kind of sad haha. 

But ah, we saw so many miracles! Well, so anyway, I´ve been pretty stressed out this week. I don´t know why, well, i kind of do, I mean...I just have lots of emotions inside of me about the upcoming weeks. But yeah, so on Tuesday we needed to catch a train to go do intercambios, (it´s one that comes like every half hour), but anyway, so we were running late and we had to sprint to catch it, and right as we walked into the station, and it was there (and we could´ve caught it), a woman in a wheelchair asked my companion to help her, and so she did, and we ended up missing the train. It was fine because another was going to come thirty minutes later, but I felt like such a fail. Even though I was so so grateful my companion helped her, and I wouldn´t have changed that, I was just sad because the other Hermanas were waiting for us and I had forgotten to bring a few other things and I just felt like I was letting everyone down. So I started crying and my companion was talking to the woman. I called the hermanas to tell them we´d be late, tried to pull myself together and then went to go talk with them. It turns out this woman has some really awesome questions about the atonement and we had a really great conversation with her. Then a few minutes later the husband of one of our investigators came and talked to us (and normally he avoids us), and then another woman talked to us and we ended up getting her information and ah, it was just so cool to see how the lord works with our weaknesses, and He is involved in every aspect of our lives! He lives! Have a great week!

Love, Hermana Miller
