8/3/2015 Surreal

Dear family and friends,

Life is so surreal right now. This week is life changing. Okay I may
be a little dramatic right now, but really, this week are some major
changes. I'm turning 21! Woohoo! The day I'm turning 21 is transfers
so I'm going to be in Wichita! They have some training on how to be a
trainer...
I'm going to be a trainer... I'm so shocked. We were inside the car
when we got a call from the AP's. We had a member with us and we were
just about to pray then go to a members house for an appointment. I
could barely muster up a "He..lll..oo." I normally say who I am but I
was speechless. I thought something went wrong, because why else would
the AP's be calling us? "Who is this?"
"Sister Webb."
"Sister Webb, you've been called by the Lord to be a trainer."
"What?!"
I couldn't believe it!
"Are you excited?"
"Yes!"
I was literally feeling mixed emotions but I don't know if excited was
the dominant one. Actually maybe deep deep deep down I was
emotionada...
Then he wanted to talk to Sister Rosell. She was also called as a
trainer. It's so crazy. We are both fresh out of training, we have
served the exact same time - about 7 months. Wow when you look at it
that way 7 months is a long time. And we're just finishing training
them we're only 1 transfer instead if 2... So technically it's not as
impossible as it seems. But I'm not ready to be a mom. (you're called
a mom when you're a trainer and when your trainee trains someone then
you become a grandma)
Even though I'm super scared and unprepared, I know that God knows me
more than I know myself. I know he's trying to stretch me. I know I'll
be out of my comfort zone but "there's no comfort in the growth zone
and there's no growth in the comfort zone". I didn't make that up...
Some clever missionary did.
I'm so grateful for all the cards and emails and packages you've given
me. I'm so lucky:)
I'm so lucky to have an amazing support system!
Love,
Hermana Webb
