Hola Familia,
This week has been short since I wrote to all of you guys this past
Wednesday but I am glad for the time and how fast it goes by. This life just flies by and sometimes I feel
like I don’t have enough time in my life ha ha.

Well this week was great and everything went really well and I am
really enjoying the mission. We are
finally seeing some success in the Zone. The Zone is working really hard. I am always trying to figure out what we can
do to help the missionaries in our Zone out and to make their mission a little
better. But generally everything is going
great. This week we were lucky enough to
find three new investigators that we will be teaching. Hopefully we can put a baptism date on them
soon so they can prepare to be baptized. We also are going to have another baptism this
Friday if everything goes well. Overall
I love the mission.

Nothing too exciting happened this week but I just love the work. I have gotten re-motivated and am just working
like crazy. At night I am tired but I
know that the Lord is giving me the extra strength (Spanish version) that I need to be able to
work in his vineyard. I love the power of prayer (Spanish version) that I know my prayers are being answered. This week my companion and I have been talking
a ton about faith (Spanish version) and how crucial faith is I really loved Ether 12 (Spanish version). It is a great chapter about the importance of
faith.
Well this week I was able to cook some pretty epic pizzas and then
some tacos yesterday ha ha. I can just
whip out pizza and tacos like nobodies business ha ha. But I love the mission. I have learned so much in my time here and
just working on being the best person that I can be.

I love you all. Try to renew your testimony of the Book of Mormon and gain a deeper understanding of the
book that will bring us eternal life (Spanish version) I know that it is true and is the best
guide we can have in our life.
Les amo,
Elder Cooley
