The Best Comeback Scene

Image
 This week was really good and we had a lot of lessons. Let me tell you, one of my favorite things is watching people struggle. . . but not that part actually. The part I love is watching how they are able to use Jesus Christ to get up and out of their struggle. It's like the best comeback scene you've ever seen and as a missionary you get to see it over and over and over again. We meet people who are broken, wife cheated on him, or husband abused her, or parents are divorced, or they don't have enough money to feed their family or whatever it may be. Everyone has different problems but what's so amazing is there's always the same solution for eternal happiness. . . .JESUS CHRIST. I've seen time and time again either broken people become great or great people become outstanding through the atoning power of Jesus Christ. I think most of us believe that Christ works miracles in people's lives but do we truly believe He's working them in our own lives? I ca...

Doubling Down

Image
 Hey quick weekly y'all. I'm still in Cambodia and I'm doubling down on my dedication. My MTC group left back to America and I miss them. It was super hard saying goodbye to them, especially the Australians becaus I know I might not see them again for a very long time. Though, that's nothing compared to what I will feel when I leave Cambodia in its whole. Just in 1.5 months more too. I love my mission and I'm so glad I'm still here kickin it. I can't wait till the temple open house and I'm just overall so excited for this transfer 🙌 I have Elder Francis as my comp and we gonna absolutely preach it up!!!! Also look at the photos to get more updated haha I love all y'all and see you sooner than I'd like. Hahah jk but I am super sad to leave. Elder Acton

God is Good

Well, this week was super busy and super fun too, I had a lot of exchanges which were really good. I think one of the coolest things was when I was on exchanges in Tuk Laak, we met with a Toul Kork member who lives in the Tuk Laak area. As we were visiting it was brought up that their nephew had just passed away on Wednesday. They were doing their 7 days since he passed funeral in Kompong Chhnang, which was so cool because that's the day we set to do exchanges up there anyway. So Wednesday I was able to go to their funeral and introduce their family to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I'm hoping Elder Hansen and Elder Tut will be able to keep teaching them. It was quite the special experience!!! God is good and is aware of His children. I'll maybe explain more with pictures because as of now I'm out of time. Please be aware that God loves you and wants you on His team fighting for good! Love,  Elder Acton P.S. I'm still doing great but dreading the end of my mission. Che...
