Down below is a picture of Christian letting his light shine. Hahahahaha he's one of my favorites in Belleview. He always knows how to lift my spirits. I love him dearly.

Be sure to read/ watch that General conference talk down below and start know on your ponderizeing. I know that it will give you great blessings if you ponderize each week.

Soooooo..... Yep a lot has changed in Florida. But we're keepin our heads up and I'm just gonna love everyone I see. I think that's the best advice I could give myself. I love missionary work although it's really tough at times. But we haft to look for the good in everything. Always follow the right and seek what's righteous and  love one another. Never lose faith. Never lose hope. Never give up. Although you may feel insignificant or small or sad. Always know. Always know that there is Always someone who knows you. Someone who loves. Someone who cares. You always have a friend in Heavenly Father. He loves you. And I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. 

I hope that you all have terrific week. I love you guys and I really do appreciate the love that you show me. Through prayers. Through emails. Though letters. Everything. thank you. I'm so grateful for such spectacular friends and family. I love you all sooo soooooo much. Your words of encouragement have really helped me during this tough week. Thank you. And I love you guys.

Love,

—Elder Coley

Bennie!!!!!!

There's this man named Bennie. He's 88 years old and his wife passed away about a month ago. I love him so much. He is a recent convert of about a year now and he loves the missionaries. And he loves the church. He feeds us once a week and I love him dearly. This past weekend I had the privilege of watching conference with Bennie. He was so much fun to sit next to you while we watch general conference. It was hilarious. On the Saturday afternoon conference (the one where all the little kids sang) he was most lively. His favorite part of conference was watching the little kids sing. He would comment saying " oh wow, aren't they just precious!" Or " that's so cute!" He could really feel the spirit as they sang. Bennie loves it when we sing. He really liked it when the choir sang the song "there is sunshine in my soul today" as I was watching them sing, I looked over and saw him singing along with the Mormon tabernacle choir. It touched my heart as I saw the spirit of song touch his heart. That is a experience that I won't forget any time soon. I love Bennie. And although it doesn't look like he has a whole lot of time left on this earth. I'm glad to say that he is my best friend out here in Florida. 

Sorry this email hast to be short we have to shake more hands and kiss more baby's. Hahahaha no but we need to say goodbye to some more members before the day is over sooo...
