So
Barbara is Lacy's mom and Lacy has a son named Dakota. One day Sister
Sirrine and I were knocking doors and we only had a half hour before we
had to leave so we decided to stop and do some inspired knocking. We
looked at Barbara's door and said, "That's one we need to knock." So we
knocked on a door two down from hers (I know, it doesn't make sense but
we figured we knock some extra before leaving her street) and just
before we knocked on her neighbors door, Barbara came to her door and
looked out the window! She said hello to us and we were amazed! We asked
her why she came to the door and she said there are always drugs deals
on the corner across from her house so she wanted to see if she could
catch one. Haha, she is an interesting lady. We ended up talking to her
about religion and found out she is looking for a church and is friends
with a member of the Jones Falls ward named Tito. He is super awesome
and a wonderful example for her to have in her life! We came back two
times and taught her, Lacy, and Dakota. She is going to be taught by the
sisters in the Jones Falls ward now 
So,
Emily is a former investigator who analyzes everything! If you know me,
you know I am the same way so it was such a blessing to meet with her.
Her dad passed away four years ago and her mom has been struggling
pretty badly. Emily is training to become an EMT and is going to school
at the same time. We stopped by her house one day and she was about to
head out to go to karate! It was a miracle we caught her because we have
never been able to in the past. We set up a return appointment, prayed,
and left. When we went back we talked about why she likes being an EMT
and made a super sweet analogy about spiritual wounds and how we are
healed from them. She didn't quite get it at first but she ended up
understanding and opening up to us. The Spirit was so strong and she
made another return appointment. We had to cancel because it was on the
day of transfers and we got back too late and had tons to do with a new
sister in the area but we will visit her again soon.
Sorry
this is so long. Anyway, Sister Newhouse is the new sister in the
Baltimore YSA and she is so awesome! She has been through a lot and is
super strong! I love her a ton and we grew very close to each other.
I
am out of time but I wanted to let everyone know before I go that I was
emergency transferred from BYSA to Mt Airy, MD. I am safe, nothing
crazy happened. We are not entirely sure why President made the switch.
Love,
Sister Lewis
