Week 64: Island Fever!

I don't really know if "island fever" means that you are stir crazy and want to get off the island or you never want to leave...but in this case it means I never want to leave haha!

This week was amazing! We got to visit with Billy three times, and a member of the branch even came with us one of those times! He is amazing! He really understands and recognizes the Spirit! This week we asked him something about Joseph Smith (I can't remember the exact question), and he answered saying, "Well, I'm going to know if Joseph Smith is a prophet by looking into your eyes, because if you believe it, I'll believe it!" He always tells us that he can see it in our eyes and that he feels it in his heart. He knows that everything we tell him is true! He is still excited and committed to read from the Book of Mormon and pray to receive a personal answer from God to know if the Book of Mormon is true. We are going to start reading with him because he is super popular and everyone interrupts him when he reads haha!

We also had a chance to visit the Harrison girls on Christmas Eve! We talked to them, and I finally met their mom! We have been practicing for our next lesson with them since I got here to the island so whenever we are able to teach them what we have been planning and what the Spirit has told us to share, we are going to be SUPER prepared haha! Just keep sending your prayers their way! They are going to need an extra boost of spiritual strength to get to church and prepare to be baptized! The girls are still on fire and want to be baptized more than ever! We love them!

I also met our investigator Deirdre on Saturday! She is such an interesting woman, and I don't mean that in a derogatory way haha! Everything she shares is super interesting and just captures my attention! We're going to teach her tonight!

Well I am out of time! I love you all and thank you for your love, prayers, and suport!

Love,

Sister Lewis
