Things are going way cool here. Right now we have 6 practically 7 people with baptismal dates. Pretty awesome huh. In the past 4 weeks there have been 6 baptisms. Before that...there hadn't been any in a little over a year. :--0

Crazy huh?!

But yea, I’m in an area that was part of the Carlsbad mission before it got switched. So members were showing me some pictures of previous missionaries. I saw a picture of the companion of Elder Alan Brown. So that was neat. Also I saw a few pictures of Daniel Zarate. Thomas' little brother. And some of the members know him. Oh, and besides that I’m going over to The Zarates' grandmas/aunt and uncles house in like an hour. And Thomas is going to be there! Ha-ha cool huh? Well this will be a fun p-day. I think we might all go on a hike. That's what I’d like to do. We'd be able to talk and catch up on things too. He's getting married in like a couple weeks.

But yea, the work here has just multiplied. All the hard work the elders did before is finally paying off. There could be a ton of baptisms before I go home.

Things are going well. Elder Ballard is coming down Saturday. Sister Clayton, the wife of our Mission president is the daughter of Elder Ballard.

But Elder Ballard comes down here every year I think. Cause he has family and I think maybe a house on Coronado Island. Which is like one of the richest areas in the United States! So that's Saturday.

I love you all and keep praying for our investigators. I pray for all of you every day

Love, Elder Lewis
