The start of my week was slightly hectic. Moving in a little late, and rushing to buy food. Yet throughout the week, we have had great success!
There were a few memorable lessons, the first was with our friend Chewy. Chewy had many questions about our church, and many of which were not easy to answer. After a long and deep conversation, we bore testimony that the only way for him to find out if the Book of Mormon was true, was to find it for himself. This made him think for quite a while, after a considerable amount of time he responded, "Im scared of what I'll have to change if I find that book is true". I took this as a good sign, considering that he now held in his mind the possibility of truth from that book. However, he then said something very profound,
"Tell me how you are better than me, because that is where I want to be"
That made us think!
Are we willing to look at others examples and improve ourselves?
We are teaching Chewy again this week, and he has asked some good questions which we will prepare for.
Many miracles happened this week! My new zone is fantastic! I love this work!
We cover a bit of Wildomar and Lake Elsinore. There is a HUGE gated
community called "Canyon Lakes". My guess would be that it encloses roughly 5-10 square miles and literally has a private lake in the middle of it. Sadly we aren't allowed to walk around in there, but the stars and water are very beautiful at night (as we drove speedily by).

I will describe a bit of my new area:
There is a long dirt road called "lost road" that connects our 2 areas, it also is the fastest way between them and "Tiwi" doesn't register up there so we can go as fast as we want, so it really is THE FASTEST way! It is also very scary, so I don't actually drive that fast...

There is a Walmart here so, take that Preston.
