We had a great chat with Syster Page last night. She sounded happy and content. She is working hard and looking forward to Eddies baptism in a couple of weeks. She loves teaching the gospel and is doing well in the language. She said she understood church and most everything but the teenager lingo. She love the ward they are assigned too. They are good friendly saints that have put their arms around the investigators. She rides a bike and had some funny tales about skirts flying over her head and such. It was so comforting to hear her laugh! Rachel asked her what she was seeing artound her as we were on the phone with her and she said "...me, I am looking in a mirror that is right in front of me." That is also a familar image (no pun intended). She said her day was 6:30 up and running for 20 minutes, shower dress. Then 1 hour personal study, 1 hour companion study, then lunch bvefore they head out the door at 12:00 returning home at 8 pm for dinner etc and in bed at 10:30. Of coursr sometimes the teaching goes later than 8 but that is about the schedule. She just had Zone Conference which is a 2 hour train ride to Stockholm from Orebro. She sang a couple of hymns in Swedish for us and it was nice to hear the language as well as her voice. We are so grateful for her wonderful opportunity to be a missionary and for her love and joy in the work.
