What's up, everyone? 

I hope you all had a happy Halloween! We carved some mini pumpkins on Saturday evening which was pretty fun, haha! It's been awhile since I've done that. Lockdown has been going okay so far. We are allowed more time to exercise and do meditation exercises to help keep up sane, so that's good! We also have the Calm app on our phones which is super helpful! I would definitely recommend it if you want to start doing meditation, haha! Some members in our ward also held two Zoom workouts for us this past week. It was super fun! The father of the family used to do karate competitions, so he taught us some karate moves. It was so fun, haha! Then a few days later, his son, Finn, ran us through another exercise. He's only 17, but he is so ripped! He's a beast!

We've been teaching our friend, Casey, nearly everyday this past week. He's progressing quite well. He said that he believes that the Book of Mormon contains the words of Christ, so that's been awesome to see him develop his testimony of the Book of Mormon. We talked to him about baptism. He said he was baptised when he lived in Africa, but he is willing to consider being baptised into our church. He is a cool guy!

We watched a missionary devotional this past week. The speaker talked about a few things that Jesus Christ said in His life that we can try to implement into our lives. The sayings were "Here am I. Send me.", "Thy will be done.", and "It is finished." In summary he basically said that we can always do our best to be willing to step up to the plate and be willing to serve, submit to God's will and not our own, and work until the work is finished. I really liked it! I thought it was good!
