Let's start this off with a funny story that's not so funny....
So we just got back from writing and shopping a week ago on Pday. It was a hot day, and we were sweaty from walking all around with our groceries. We walk into the house, and immediately a man pulls up in a truck, and long story short, after lots of aurguing in spanish, we learned that we were going to lose our water. For at least 2 hours, or at the most 2 days. 
Because the mission office forgot to pay our water bill! 
Long story short, we went about a full 30 hours without water, and with lots of praying and nearly tears (from yours truly), we got our water back! 
After that fiasco, I realized just how important water is! We had lost our electricty a few weeks back to the same problem, and lets just say that I will never forget to pay my water bill!
Fast forward to Saturday, and we had too much water! 
We were filling up the font for a baptism this weekend, and another long story short, forgot to shut the water off! We ran around with whatever we could find to mop up the water that had overflowed into the font room and hallway! 
But all was well, we had our baptism and it was great. 
After the baptism, we got to watch the Disney movie, Coco. 
If you havent seen this movie, I would suggest that you do, as soon as possible! 
It's an awesome film, and has an even greater message. The topic of family history is such an important work that must be done, and it should be done as soon as possible! 
For those of you that haven't done family history work, get to it. It's a great oportunity to remember and get to know your fore family, and finish the saving ordanices that they need in the temple. 
I know that there are people waiting, in the spirit world, just waiting for their families to get their work done so they can fully enjoy all of the blessings that God has promised each one of us. 
I love you all, and really do thank you for all the love and support. You guys keep me rollin! 
I hope you all have a great week, and can do some family history work! 
Love you all, see ya next week!
love,
-Elder Lewis
