The Best Two Years: The City of Enoch

June 15, 2015

Hello everybody!

Breaking News: The City of Enoch is on the Earth again and needs to be translated again. I'm on it.

Haha, just kidding. Different Enoch, obviously. This has been an interesting week. On Tuesday, I left Mt. Pleasant and went south to Enoch. Enoch is a town of about 6,000 people right next to Cedar City, which has around 35,000 or something in that ballpark. My area, Enoch West, actually takes in a piece of Cedar City. It is a nice place. I still don't really know anybody, but those who I've met have been nice. Cedar City is actually the first real city I've seen in over four months! Around Mt. Pleasant, the biggest "city" is probably Ephraim, which is probably no more than five or six thousand. Still not a real city by most places' standards. Cedar City is kind of refreshing in that there it is a real city, and that there are in fact more than five last names around here.

Elder Spencer and Elder Jones (I replaced Elder Jones in this area) who were here before me, covered two areas, Enoch and Enoch West. I guess most of the work was in the other area, which is now covered by sister missionaries. So here in Enoch West, Elder a Spencer and I only have a couple people we're teaching. It is almost like opening a new area, except that Elder Spencer does know a few people already. It's still pretty stressful not being familiar with the area, and I still really miss Mt. Pleasant. But I'm doing okay.

Well, that's all for today. Sorry it wasn't much. Hopefully we can get the ball rolling here in Enoch West, and hopefully I can get more used to the area, and I can have have more to write about next week.

Have a great week everybody.
