Week #65

Hello One and All,

This week was a good one. I was able to visit Curacao, Aruba and finally arrived in Suriname on Tuesday and got right to work in one of the biggest biking area in the mission. We bike 30-40 miles a day and it's a blast. We are excited to start building up a long time struggling area. Training is going well. Elder Lunceford is awesome, he is such a stud and just so willing to learn. I am learning from him and am grateful for the chance I have to train him. 

We didn't get to work in our area too much due to my zone leader training and a lot of other stuff but I wanted to share a scripture 

Isaiah 25:18

He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces;  and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.

I love this. I am so extremely grateful for the Atonement of Christ. I am thankful that through Him "all tears" can be wiped away and all that is unfair about life can be made right through his perfect and infinite atonement. 

I love you all and Hope you all are having a good week!

-Elder Lewis

 

Week #64

Hello Everyone,

Well, my heart was ripped out this week as I was asked to go back to Suriname to be a zone leader and to train. I am extremely excited for the opportunity to serve in a new capacity. This last week we were able to go on an island tour with the Egberts and IT was a blast. I know this is super short but I hope the beautiful pictures will be sufficient for all of you!
