March 27, 2012 Good Week

Hey Everyone,

      First of all congrats Spencer on the mission call!  Atlanta Georgia, that will be way sweet!  I've heard only good things about Georgia from the people I've talked to here.  You will definitely gain weight there.  I hope everyone else had a great week too.  I had a pretty good one here.  It's been pretty hot though and really humid already.  Of course it's only the beginning too.  But yeah,  so I'm staying here another transfer in New Orleans East with Elder Gauthier, which we pretty much knew what was going to happen.  I'm excited though.  We are starting to get some more stuff going and Elder Gauthier is really cool.  This last week I didn't really feel like a missionary though.  We had to move apartments, so that took two days, and then we had to stay inside for a day too because of the storm that passed through.  It wasn't really that bad just a lot of rain.  And then yesterday we helped a member put up rain gutters on their house, so that took a while.  We were able to still have some lessons though.  Were teaching a former investigator named Gary.  He is a really interesting guy and is the only white person that probably lives here in the East.  He is baptist and tries to teach us more then let us teach him.  Hopefully though he will just humble himself and read and pray to know that the Book of Mormon is true.  I think he is trying more to disprove it right now.  He does have potential though so we're going to keep working with him.  Not too much else happened this week.  I hope you all have a great week and enjoy General Conference.

Love,

Elder Cooper
