大家好,
Hellooo everybody! Hope you all had an awesome week!
This week went by pretty well for us! We moved again this
morning! Woohoo! We are moved to the building right next door to us! Since we
will be in a trio the last week of this transfer and there will be three elders
here after I leave, they wanted to give us an apartment with two bathrooms!
We're just waiting for the office elders to come and bring all of our new
furniture! So right now everything is sitting in a pile in our living room!
This week we had some really good days at the UCR campus! We
talked to a lot of people and found some investigators that have a lot of good
potential!
Last week we had called a former investigator and she was super
excited to have us come back and visit her! We drove 25 minutes over to her
house in Corona and when she knocked on the door she looked really surprised!
She told us "Oh, I thought you were Christian missionaries that were
calling me.. Not Mormons!" We tried to explain that we are Christians, but
she was not taking it! Haha so she gave us some water and then asked us to
leave. She said we could try coming back in a few years because their opinions
might have changed by then!
We also met this super cool family in the park and went to go
see them on Saturday! The husband's younger sister went to school at USU
and was baptized there! They said she's married now and is working/living in
Salt Lake City! Small world! It's crazy to see how the Lord prepares His
children to receive His gospel.
Things at UCR are going pretty well! We just walk on the campus
and talk with people all day! It can get pretty monotonous, so we have to find
ways to make it interesting! We're teaching two English classes now! We have
one at UCR and one in Eastvale! The one at UCR is only on Fridays, so we have
to split with other missionaries in order to teach both classes! It's pretty
crazy! We have a couple students that come to the UCR class, but
hopefully we'll get more coming! I like the UCR English class a lot more! The
students there already speak pretty good English, so we'll play games with them
and find ways to
help them practice speaking. At Eastvale it's a lot of memorizing vocabulary
which can be pretty boring at times! Last Friday we played Apples to Apples
with our class and it was a lot of fun! Two of our students are a couple in
their 70's from Taiwan! They are soooo funny! The husband worked as a professor
at a bunch of different universities all around the world! So he speaks fluent
Portugese, English, Chinese, and Taiwanese! The wife is still working on
English, but she's doing very well!
Well that was the majority of our week! Love and miss all of
you!
Love,
Elder Warren
