FAREWELL SISTER PARSONS -- DECEMBER 2015
The mission has been so blessed with two wonderful Sisters who have been serving in the mission office; we have had to say goodbye to one of them, Sister Parsons, who has served so faithfully with the most beautiful smile and always with so much love. Her visa has expired and so she will leave before her companion.
SISTER PARSONS....YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!
THANK YOU!
...FOR YOUR FAITHFUL, DEDICATED SERVICE TO US AND THE AUSTRALIA BRISBANE MISSION.
We Love You!

INNISFAIL MIRACLE -- JANUARY 2016
These beautiful twins have a wonderful story as they discovered the JOY of the Gospel in their life.
- It was an amazing week for them as they were baptized on Saturday, January 9th @ the waters of Mormon.
- They packed their bags and joined 1,400 youth from all around Queensland at FSY (For the Strength of Youth) on Tuesday.
- They shared their testimony with this incredible gathering of youth and inspired all of us on Thursday.
- Had the opportunity to do baptisms for the dead in the Brisbane Temple on Saturday.
- Departed for home to end their first week as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Beautiful!
"All we can say is that the Lord prepares His people and when they listen to the Spirit, their lives will change forever." Elder Narramore & Elder Lomuntad: missionaries who helped teach the lessons.

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!

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!
