Love Others 

¡Hola mi familia y a mis amigos!


Well another week down here in the mission. The time like always is passing quickly and the work keeps going on. This week nothing too crazy has been happening with people progressing or new things happening but we keep trying to find new people and keep teaching. I have learned so much about patience and how everyone has their own agency and I can not force anyone to do anything. What I can do is give my all. Try my best and teach in the best way I know and then people can choose what they want to do with that.


Something really good that happened this week was that we had our zone conference. I always love zone conferences because I get to hear the council of our mission president. Everything he says is super inspired and he gets me so excited to work. I learned the importance of families and how as missionaries that is really our focus. It is to have families sealed the temples. Then I had my interview with him and he taught me an amazing lesson about the importance of loving others. He taught me that truly we are all children of a loving Heavenly Father which means we need to love everyone as a big family and I loved that.


Saturday I got super sick which sucked because getting sick on the mission is difficult. We took a rest day. Sunday we were able to go to church and that was great. We didn't have any friends come but that's fine because we had a lot of members come. I was also able to teach Sunday school and I had two minutes after the sacrament meeting to plan. Literally I left a meeting we had with people and the Sunday school class was waiting and our branch president said to me that I am teaching Sunday school haha. It turned out good and it was a really good topic about the sacrament.


Well that is pretty much it from this week! Super chill and super good to be here on the mission. Also if you are reading this and thinking about going on a mission you totally should!


¡Chau!

Love, Elder Acor

  Happy Tuesday morning!! ☀️☀️ it’s a lovely day so far:) Ok! So here’s an experience I have been feeling like I want to share with you all: Maybe a week ago? Ish? I was in the temple for to do initiatories. I can’t remember if I had an appointment or I was just walking in… I think I was just walking in.  The PCC temple has a really good system for helping people who walk in w/out an appointment be able to do initiatories. However after they got my name and all that jazz they asked me to sit in the front area where the desk is instead of in the back near the booths bc the benches back there were full. This was sorta upsetting to me, I had gone that day really hoping to be able to feel the spirit. But being up there near the desk meant I had to try and tune out all the happenings and chatting there. Recently I’ve discovered that when I’m anxious I can get pretty sound sensitive. So if there’s any noise going on it can completely overwhelm me with anxious thoughts.  I start...
