Christ's Infinite Understanding

I hope that all of you had an amazing week! My week was a bit weird for sure. I Sure still saw some miracles like always!


The mission up until it's very last moment, continues to surprise me. Big news is that my companion will be heading home and finishing his mission as a service missionary. It has been crazy this whole week figuring that out and dealing with the situation. It was just a little crazy all week. I've learned lots of patience and understanding and had some good experiences this week still.


Saturday we were able to have a good day because we headed to Paso Yobai! I truly love going and working there. It is so much fun. Every time we go it's an adventure and we get a super good lunch as well so it's all pretty great. We were able to do a bit of service which was really fun. We helped building a house. We had the job of cleaning off old used bricks so that they could be used again. It was hot and dirty so we got really messy but I enjoyed it. After we were able to have a really cool lesson with the people building the house. It was so cool.


Sunday was very rainy. That meant that we had nine people come to church. Sadly we didn't have our friend Nelida come because she was sick. It was a fun little Sunday though. We took a selfie with everyone that came to church which was funny. I also got to call my Dad because it was Father's Day so that was awesome!


So, this week wasn't what I was expecting at all. Really the end of my mission isn't anything that I was expecting. I'll be finishing my mission and I may not even finish in my area or maybe yesterday was the last time I went to church here in Villarrica. Who knows, it's all kind of up in the air. All I know is that God understands everything that is happening. He knows how I feel, my companion, our friends, our members, everyone! That brings me so much comfort. I have two weeks left so I'm not too worried with everything that will happen but it's going to be very different than I thought. Also I'm going to give my last testimony tonight on our big mission call with the whole mission which is going to be so weird!


Well that's everything for this week! I'm so thankful for all of you! I hope you all have a fantastic week!


¡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...
