Dear and lovely friends
this year was a year filled with magic and courage and faith and cooperation and love and new friends and accomplices. This gift that came to our lives, the gift of Mi Coraje Tu Coraje, blessed us with adventures and new encounters. We watched as links were miraculously made. We marvelled at the wonder of how a shared vision brings out the best in everyone. We were humbled at how beautiful and powerful are the women of this country - and how they don't recognize this.
In a year that saw us on the road for 8 months almost without stop, we might have expected to be exhausted at the end, but somehow, with the pure energy of all of you, with the beauty of each one's generous heart we find that we are well and enormously grateful.
Last weekend was the facilitator training here in Santiago where 30 women from around the country found themselves immersed in new friendships, learning and sisterhood. It was a powerful and grace-filled experience for us and for so many who participated. Ivonne, Myriam, Cristina and Lucia - thank you for your dedication and support.
Ceci you are a rock, so dependable and so joyous.
Bárbara you are incredible. Fran is not yet 2 weeks old and you and she were with us all the way...you arranging transport for everyone with so much joy, love and appreciation.
Simone you came all the way from Germany to be in the background, supporting, loving, organizing, doing any and every thing that needed doing. You are wonderful.
At our launch in Santiago on Sunday night, we were just over 300 and there was so much cooperation. The Brahma Kumaris families of Viña and Pocuro were unbelievably generous all afternoon and into the evening. Looking after our facilitators, feeding them, sending them on their bus trips overnight with home made bread and sandwiches for their journeys was just one of the special things that the Viña family came early to manage.
We launch the book the first week in January. It is beautiful, thanks to Quena Burgos, all the wonderful women who shared their stories, Olga from Uruguay who translated meticulously for Caroline, Paula Trivelli who pulled us together in record time and the magnificent Fran Toral and Marién Wood from Ediciones B.
We will keep you informed of the progress...of dates and times and places.
So thank you all so very much, deep from within our hearts for all that each one contributed in touching, uplifting and liberating the hope and strength of courage in almost 3000 women in Chile.
Blessings and gratitude always
Angélica, Caroline and Cecilia
