Hello all,
I hope you all had a great Halloween. I know we did. This last week we had an awesome Zone Conference where they talked a lot about the Book of Mormon and how it leads to our conversion. It was such a spiritual experience to learn and grow from our leaders and from a member who was converted by purchasing a copy of the Book of Mormon from Goodwill for 50 cents. It was awesome to hear the testimonies of the missionaries and him. I am challenging you all to send me in a separate email of your testimony, for those of you that read my blog my email is robert.pike@myldsmail.net Hopefully I will be able to hear from you too. Then we had a scary lesson with Amada and the Browns where she told she might be get kicked out and and other things and we were scared but now we are going to be meeting with her everyday so we can help her even more. But everything seamed normal on Sunday so we are praying that everything still goes well. Saturday was awesome and we were able to help 3 members of the ward with work around their houses, raking leaves and stuff like that. It was awesome we are getting to know the members even better. I love service! And Sunday was awesome I loved it. Testimony meeting was weird and full of random 5 minuet pauses, but it was great but the best part of yesterday was the CES devotional by Donald L Hallstrom that was amassing! He talked a lot about how we can sure up our foundation of our testimony, it was amassing. I really like the part about how he related our testimonies to the foundation of a mighty and majestic temple. It is a great talk and I would like it if you would watch it.

So to preface this picture and why it was a great Halloween we pulled a prank on the sisters. The sisters are in charge of our dinner calendar and we asked what day we had a dinner with the Elkins family. They told us the day and said that it would cost us an arm and a leg so we go them an arm and leg. But we didn't make it that simple we told them to leave their trunk of their car open but they didn't so we took their keys and tied the arm to the trunk so when they opened it the arm would pop out at them. It worked out better than we had planned. The Sister holding the arm and leg is Sister Johnson and she was scared really good. She oppened it and screamed and ran while her companion for the day dropped her coat and ran away fast. The best part of the prank we had the members that we had dinner with involved and they watched. Brother Elkins said "it worked perfectly" it was awesome and sister Johnson being such a good sport took a picture with the arm and leg.
Love you all,
Elder Robert Pike
