Week 77!!! Last P-day Email!!

I`ll go where you want me to go


Dear Everyone,

I need to start off explaining that the computer I`m using does not
work very well, and these are the only exclamation points that I can
make ¡¡¡ so hopefully my lack of punctuation won`t convey lack of
emotion.

During this last transfer in the mission, it was kind of hard, I was
stressed that my time was coming to an end, I didn`t want to face it.
And even though this last week I`ve had even less time in the mission,
I have felt more at peace. I`ll tell you why...

So this week we had our last conference with our mission president and
I was a little anxious because I was going to teach a lesson to the
zone since I am a Sister Training Leader and also because since it was
my last conference, they were going to call me up in front of the 4
zones to share my testimonio de fiel. I didn`t feel ready to accept
that I was going to be finishing the mission, I just couldn`t believe
it. During the conference we sung I`ll Go Where You Want Me To Go, and
it was really an answer to my prayers. This hymn was always one of my
favorites, I figuratively sung it coming here to Uruguay and every time
I changed areas, and as I sung it again in my last zone conference the
Spirit testified to me a comforting truth. Right now, it`s the Lord`s
will that I return home. It`s His will that I take off my name tag,
symbolizing the end of my full-time service in order to become a
full-time member missionary. So there`s no need to be sad, Happily, I
Will Do His Will. I am so content with how hard I have worked, how
much of myself that I have given to the Lord. I gave him all, and in
return, He has helped me become a better person. I am so grateful for
all the people that I have met, they have all left footprints in my
heart. I am so grateful for all the experiences, the hard ones and the
happy ones, because I have learned from every single one of them.

We`re closing Juan Lacaze, only the elders are going to stay here and
there aren`t going to be any more sisters here. All of my areas have
been closed for sisters now, but I know that the Lord has a wise
purpose. And now I`m going to my next area, So I'll go where you want
me to go, dear Lord,
Over mountain or plain or sea;
I'll say what you want me to say, dear Lord;
I'll be what you want me to be.

I love you all¡¡ Thank you so much for everything, all the support and
love and messages. See you soon,

Hermana Autery
