Today we made a Star Wars Cake.

We taught awesome lessons this week, in person is still better than video call, but video calls are still going good.

We went on 3 exchanges this week! We did them for one hour in different rooms with one sister so they could talk to us and do a study with another companion.

We got a Chromebook because we have so much facebook stuff to do on the computer and President doesn't want us spending half the day at the church so our mission got three computers - one for each Tech Squad companionship.

We also played 2 truths and a lie with a group of missionaries and I totally won. My answers were:

- I was an Assistant Director for an opera

- I had a pet snake

- I have read the Apocrypha.

Spoiler, I haven't read the Apocrypha. But all of them thought that was a totally practical thing for me to have read. To be fair, I want to read it when I get home and have more time. Anyway I thought that was funny.

Our Facebook pages have been going well, we have been doing a lot of work on them. We are getting missionaries to send in content and working on getting the pages out to people in those areas.

We have been studying the restoration of Christ's gospel a lot this week, in preparation for a lesson with someone who asks a lot of questions. We will see how it goes.

A lot of people have been going home early because of COVID-19 and it has been crazy. But it is great hearing about the peace they feel simply because of Christ. Put your focus on Him and you will be alright.

Penelope said these GIFs were chosen to depict her. I don't know if it was her companion or her mission. Mom's summary - Penelope loves to read and eat and she is very tall, hyper, and has big eyes.

This week was busy! As you can see from the picture below....

We had a lot of lessons, which was so great. We had one day where there was 5 lessons scheduled, along with a 40 minute meeting and a 90 minute meeting. One of the lessons canceled so we had more breathing time but we are full of stuff to do!

We also had MLC (meeting with President and all the bigshot missionaries) and 4 zone conferences. Cool news, our mission is getting 35 new missionaries next week! All will be reassigned missionaries who were serving in another country but got sent home because of Corona. We have some coming from Ghana and Madagascar and other places but I can't remember the others.
