Where in the World is Sister Lewis?

Hello!

So, I'm sure you're all waiting on the edge of your seats to find out where I am!

Well, I'm in a little place called New Lebanon, Ohio. (It's part of the Eaton ward). It's a lot like Peru, Indiana. Except it's in Ohio. :) I like it here. There's lots of work to be done in this ward (it used to be a small branch, they just became a ward last year). I'm happy to be here! 

My new companion's name is Sister Hall, she was companion's with Sister Carlson in the MTC, so I knew of her before Tuesday. She's from Idaho Falls and she' super sweet! Oh, and she has red hair. That's my 4th companion with red hair. I'm noticing a trend... I'm just not sure what it means! (Heavenly Father must know that I've always wanted to be a redhead/that I like redheads! haha)

I've just been having a wonderful time out here, it's a beautiful place! We drive a lot because our area covers one and a half counties, which includes several little towns. :)

On Tuesday at transfer meeting sister Carlson told me that my investigator from Middletown, Brenden, would be getting baptized on Saturday. 

Tender mercy: because Eaton is close to Middletown (it takes 30 minutes to get there), I was able to attend Brenden's baptism. If I had stayed in Cherry Grove, or gone anywhere in Indiana or Kentucky, I wouldn't have been able to go. 

It was a wonderful baptism! After he was baptized, Brenden shared his testimony. It was one of the most powerful testimonies I have ever heard from a recent convert. :) I am so happy for him and for the leader he is becoming! :) I"ll attach a picture.

I hope you are all having a lovely day!

Love,
