Well this past week has been pretty bizarre. I can't believe I am back in Temecula. I never thought I would serve here again. It has been great to be back. It is realy weird because I alreadsy know the area. I feel like I am in a dream. none of this feels real. I am now serving in the Butterfieldstage ward and the Temecula Valley YSA branch. I served in the branch my very first transfer in the mission. It is pretty funny because there are people here that were here when I was her 18 months ago. Its crazy to get transferred and actually know people. Temecula is such a great place, the people here are awesome! It has been weird being back because I have seen families that were in my old area that we worked with a lot that I have seen here again. I thought I wouldn't see them untill after my mission but I guess I was proven wrong. All in all it is great to be here. I don't feel like any of this is real. I feel like a brand new missionary again. Every where we drive I have flash backs and all the good memories come back. It is really cool.
Last tuesday 31 missionaries came to the mission and 3 went home. It is so crazy. 10 areas were split. The zone I am now in is basically all new missionaries. Every companionship is training except for my companion and I and one other companionship. We have so many exchanges to go on. I believe that we will be going on 9 in the next 3 weeks. My companions is pretty awesome. He is from Rexburg, Idaho. He has been out about 16 months. It is pretty crazy, because he was supposed to be in my MTC district, but he tore his ACL and had to get surgery. So he came out after that.
There is so much going on right now. Temecula is exploding. We have a baptism coming up here the beginning of September with a super solid investigator. We are actually teaching a good amount of people right now. We had one lesson this week with 2 of our investigators. It was a pretty interesting lesson. We read a talk by Tad R. Calister with them about the Book of Mormon. After we read it and talked about it one of the investigators but up some anti. It was pretty random but I guess this is what happens often. She goes to a church that is really anti. But we were able to talk with her and talk about the anti. I love the things people bring up, because they are always the same things.
That is awesome that Christian and Dad had a good time. Did they go to the usual place? I can't believe that Austin is going to be a Sophmore. Time is just flying by! That is sweet that he made a kayak. He is going to have to teach me how to do that. That's good that you got the package. Was it hand delivered?
It is so great to be a missionary right now. So much is happening and it is really cool to be a part of it! Everyday is a great day. There are so many miracles happening right now. Everyday is a new miracle. Thanks for everything mom! I Love You!
Love, Elder RINDLISBACHER
