Hola Familia,
This week has been great. So right now my companion is Elder Rossano
from South Carolina. He is 23 years old
and is awesome. We get along great and
we have been able to work super hard.
Moquegua is super hot ha ha. But
is great. So we are super high in the
mountains and we really meet some great people.
This week we have had a ton of success and were able
to teach a ton of people. We went to
Arequipa on Wednesday and Thursday to the monthly leadership conference and it
was great. I learned a ton and am so
excited to apply it to our Zone and see what we can do to help out the
missionaries to accomplish their goals.
I have learned a ton this week I would really love to
talk about the plan of salvation today.
I have learned to love and admire this perfect plan that our Heavenly
Father made for us. I would like to
challenge each of you guys to learn this plan and I can promise you that if you
truly understand it you will change, for the better. It has changed me and I know that if we understand
the simple truths of God we can become better and more blessed. Honestly from my personal experience, a
person is scared to change because they 1) don’t know how to leave behind their
bad habits or 2) they try to stop bad habits and don’t have anything good to
fill in the new empty space or 3) they don’t understand the purpose of this
life.
I love to help people learn how to have
self-mastery. When we can become masters
of our self we really can do anything. I
know that this Gospel is true and that our Father loves us, his son atoned for
our sins, we can repent and become clean again.
This is the only time in our pre-mortal, mortal, and post-mortal
existence that we will be able to do the sacred ordinances for our eternal
happiness. We need to take advantage of
it and follow the teachings of Jesus and do things before it becomes too late.
I love you all and think of the personal progress and
the kind of life you would like to achieve in the next life.
Les amo,
Elder Cooley
