Week 68 I think

This week was awesome! First, transfer news! Sister Blosch and I are both staying on Kent Island! We were both so grateful for that because the Harrisons are getting baptized in a couple weeks and we have some investigators that are really starting to progress! Neither of us wanted to leave when the work is picking up so much!

Well, I forgot my other planner at home because I started a new one today so I'll just have to go by memory of what happened this week!

We saw the Harrisons every day this past week until the Historic 2016 Blizzard of the Mid-Atlantic started. And yes, that's a made up name. We were inside from 3pm to the end of the evening on Friday and also stayed inside all day Saturday and after 6pm on Sunday to stay safe! But, we were still able to see Sherrie and her daughter Emily yesterday which was awesome! Emily loves the Bible and wants to learn more about God so we are going to teach her as often as we can with her busy schedule and visiting her dad every other weekend.

Speaking of Sherrie! We went by one night this week, and her boyfriend Drew was home! We asked if we could sit down and talk to them about the Restoration again, and Sherrie said, "Oo yeah! You should tell Drew about that!" So, we did! It was awesome to see how excited Sherrie was to share with Drew! He has a lot of questions because he attended a ton of churches as a teen, and it confused him about God...that sounds a lot like Joseph Smith! He was willing to read and pray about the Book of Mormon so we are excited for the next time we get to sit down with him. He was there yesterday but busy doing laundry and running errands. That was too bad, but we will have another chance!

With the Harrisons, this week we talked about the Restoration, the Book of Mormon, and the Plan of Salvation. It seemed like they liked talking about the Book of Mormon the most! They said they sometimes open the Book of Mormon to a random page and start reading, and it's always what they need to hear! Just before we came over to talk about the Plan of Salvation, they had done that, and they opened to a chapter in the Book of Mormon about the Plan of Salvation and baptism! How awesome! They love reading the Book of Mormon and are so excited to get baptized! They were supposed to go to NC this weekend but had to reschedule their trip because of the snow, but Sister Harrison was telling us that if they had gone her grandma would have spent money on them for food and wouldn't have been able to make it up here for their baptism! So, as far as Sarah is concerned, that storm was god-sent! What faith!

Well, I love you and thank you all for your love, support, and prayers!

Love,

Sister Lewis
