Dear Everyone, 

This week was kinda crazy we played tennis with our branch mission leader and another set of missionaries that are close to us. Tuesday we had zone conference where we learned a lot about how to work better in our areas and how to pick up our attitudes. Plus we had exchanges that same day it was so much fun being with Elder Allen. Wednesday we went and had dinner with a less active and that went really good but we don't think she will be coming to church anytime soon. Thursday we went and did some service for a family in the branch, then we had an appointment with an interested investigator but we are trying to get her over some things. Friday was just perfect because we went to set up an appointment with a family and they were about to call us because they just bought a gun safe and needed it brought into their house. Saturday we set up a baptismal date with an investigator and coordinated with our mission leader. Sunday we had an appointment with a members grandson that could have went better but it was alright he said that he is willing to read the Book of Mormon so we are really hoping he does. 

 

Romans 6:8

  And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with a sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

This scripture has always made me wonder of how much power the adversary has over us. Then I am always reminded that he has as much power as we allow him to have over us. So stay strong and don't allow him to have the power to kill us physically, spiritually, or mentally. 

Love always,

 

Elder Robert Pike
