RETURN MISSIONARY VISIT DECEMBER 2015

We always see why a missionary is so great when we meet his/her family!   It was a treat having Elder Lunt and his family come and visit in Brisbane.....good to catch up, talk about the good 'ol days in the mission, share some updates on members, investigators and friends, and remember the wonderful feelings only felt when serving with all your 
HEART, MIGHT, MIND & STRENGTH!  
 You are great, Elder Lunt, and your family is great too! 

WELCOME to our NEW OFFICE SISTER MISSIONARIES

We feel that angels have come to bless the Australia Brisbane Mission:   
Sister Dever, Sister Vande Merwe, Sister Denton 
We are blessed to have these 3 wonderful Senior Sisters join the Mission Office.  They are settling into their respective areas of emphasis after being trained by their predecessors  and they will be GREAT!

WELCOME ELDER: MID TRANSFER ARRIVAL DEC 2015

We love getting missionaries anytime of the month....even if it is in the middle of a transfer.  We welcomed this Elder from Tonga via the New Zealand MTC after waiting for his visa longer than expected.  
He is going to be great!

MISSION MIRACLES December 2015~~

There have been so many wonderful convert baptisms taking place in the Australia Brisbane Mission.  We wish we had pictures and stories of all of them, but we post what we get from the Elders & Sisters when they come.  It is such a beautiful thing to see the smiles on the faces of these brand, new converts 
(the smiles on the missionary's faces are pretty great too!)

RM VISIT: ELDER PORUTU FROM FIJI

We had a ABM mission legend tell us that "RM" stands for "REORGANIZED MAGNIFICENTS"  They are magnificant and we love to see them when they come to Brisbane to visit! 
We welcomed an Elder who served well and he was able to come and spend an evening at the mission home while we had a celebration dinner for the Cleveland Zone.  It is powerful for the missionaries to hear from these MAGNIFICENT missionaries and Elder Porutu bore a fervent testimony to the Elders & Sisters that evening.

We are so proud of Elder Porutu and his commitment to the Lord.....even stronger than when he left!
