Mi amada familia,

Thanks for all the love and support that you continue to offer.  Just to let you know I have been eating my vegetables as of lately, mainly just carrots as of now. Thank you for all the news, good and bad.

This past week has been pretty great. For our zone activity last week we had a nerf gun war and it was ridiculous how into it some people got, good times though. Then on Wednesday, we had interviews with President Saylin, good times. Some other great stuff that’s happened, this Saturday is Cindy's baptism and she has asked me to baptize her! Soo... that'll be awesome! Also, we haven't had much progress with Angel lately but we decided to give him a Proclamation to the Family and the next day he said he wanted to change for his son. Then Geraldo, we took him to an investigator fireside in League City and we were the only people that showed up so it was recent converts and President Del Aguila from the mission presidency who were basically telling him to get baptized, then after he said he wants to get baptized. It was one of Elder Jensen’s dreams to have an investigator get taught one on one by a member of the mission presidency and so moral of the story, dreams come true, but more so the Lord is awesome and miracles happen. Then this morning we got called to give a blessing by someone who had been given a restoracion pamphlet about 8 months ago and he had us come over to give him a blessing for peace and such, we encouraged him to meet with the missionaries so hopefully all goes well.

Next P-day Hna. Orellana is going to teach me and Elder Jensen how to cook food; she had already taught us how to make gorditas, which are delicious.

Entonces, todo esta bien aqui en Galveston. Este es la obra del Senor y debemos confiar en El si queremos ser guiados. Estoy siempre agredecido por mi familia y el conocimiento de este evangelio.

 "Spiritual guidance is direction, enlightenment, knowledge, and motivation you receive from Jesus Christ through the Holy Ghost. It is personalized instruction adapted to your individual needs by One who understands them perfectly. Spiritual guidance is a gift of incomparable worth bestowed upon those who seek it, live worthy of it, and express gratitude for it."

-Elder Richard G. Scott

Anyways, love y'all and have a great week!

Con gran amor, Elder Cooley
