My 1st Cougar Companion


Hannah Corcoran's baptism



We're having a lot of fun.

Preach to every creature

I love the singles ward here. It's probably the best ward I've served in.
Right now we have Carolina and Doug both set to get baptized on the 13th.
They're awesome. Carolina was married to a less-active guy for 6 years and could always tell there was something special about the Church when she would go to his parents house or to church with them, but he never let her look into it.
She got divorced and now she loves reading the Book of Mormon and coming to church. it's awesome.






hope yall have a great week!love, -Elder Coffman

out with the old in with the new.....aka new companion

I apologize that it's been so long since I've had some time to write. If there was any audience left, I hope no one's feelings are hurt. We have been super busy. It's been a blast. My new companion is ElderMatsunaga. We're havin a lot of fun together already. He's really really good. We're continuing to see miracles everywhere.

Evelyn and her son Lazarus got baptized on Elder Diaz last Saturday here. That was an awesome experience. It was sad to see him go. All the missionaries that leave just talk about how it feels unreal. They looked so confused walking into the airport that morning. It feels awful leaving them there. I'm not looking forward to that at all. Luckily the new ones come just a few hours later and we just forget all about the ones that left. We got a good group this time. They seem ready and willing to work. Elder Pebley got to train again, it was fun to see him there.

Max and Hannah are getting baptized this Saturday. I love their family. We've had a lot of fun with them and it's been a lot of work,but we've seen incredible changes, especially in their dad. I love being a missionary.
Arizona is beautiful. I love it here. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
love,-Elder Coffman

Hey everyone,





We've been busy and that's a good thing. We've continued to be blessed to see people come to Jesus Christ and be baptized. Donaldo Cabezzas finally got baptized and Linda Price.
We were super excited to have a visit from my old companion Elder Keir who came from Wisconsin.
We still love to eat at Pete's fish n chips. They have the greatest hamburgers!
I get to travel quite a bit throughout the mission and I got to stand on the corner AGAIN!! The drive from Winslow to Payson is gorgeous. I love being an assistant, we get to see all of the mission.
Thanks for everything,
Love Elder Coffman
