Howdy!

That's too bad to hear about Daisy, I had thought about her recently and wondered how she was doing, but all is well, all dogs go to heaven.

Happy 33rd anniversary mom and dad!  Thanks so much for the birthday package; it was everything I wanted and more.

As for this past week it was good stuff.  We taught Moses a couple times and he is beginning to pray on his own and recognize the Spirit he feels when he prays.  Then on Sunday he came to church and loved it.  In a month, Gladys Knight will be coming to Houston with her Saints Unified Voices Choir; it'll be an awesome concert/devotional deal that we are getting all of the members to invite their friends to.  Apparently whenever and wherever she does it the missionary work increases tenfold.  So it'll be good stuff.

This Friday Elder Holland is coming to speak to the 3 Houston missions which everyone is excited about.  We have a lot of great investigators now; the only hold up is getting them to church so we're trying to get more members out with us so that they can fellowship them.  When member missionary work is combined with that of the full-time missionaries the work moves a lot faster.  Anyways, things are going great here in Houston.  I ate a lot of pupusas this past week, they're delicious, and I would encourage you to make them.  The gospel is perfect, God loves His children, that's why I'm out here - to help people feel of His love and come to know of the fullness of His blessings.  

I hope you all have a great week!  I love you all very much,

Elder Cooley
