Week somethin' or other number two!

Time is getting by me so quickly here on the island! It's really true when missionaries say the days feel really slow but the weeks feel super fast!

As for this week, we started teaching two new people! Their names are Ashley and Sherrie. They aren't related...separate people...

We met Sherrie on my first night in the area and she set up an appointment for after the holidays because she was sick and things were crazy with Christmas coming up! So, we went back this week twice and taught her about the Restoration and the Word of Wisdom. (That's the guide to our health, a.k.a. do's and dont's of eating and intake.) She is awesome and has a nine year-old daughter who loves the Bible! That made teaching about Joseph Smith amazing! She loved it!

Okay, not a lot of time, in fact only a couple seconds!

Big news of the week! We started teaching the Harrison girls again and they are planning to be baptized on February 13!! They and their mom came to church on Sunday! That was huge!!!! Their mom, Sarah, hasn't been to church in NINETEEN years! She said it felt like coming home! They are so awesome and committed! They may face challenges in the coming weeks, but Heavenly Father is aware of them, and He is going to help them because they are so ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love you all!!! Thank you SO MUCH for your prayers, love, and support! I mean that!! MIRACLES ARE HAPPENING, PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,

Sister Lewis
