Request :)

"We are truly so blessed to be living in a time when we have the Restored Gospel on the earth. I have an ever stronger desire to make sure that my own roots are deep. That my conversion story is strong enough to guide my actions in the way that my Heavenly Father wants me to live and be. I genuinley hope that one day, those who have strayed will see the light. Before they meet their maker. Oh how I love this Gospel! I say that a lot, but it's because it's so so true. :)

Before I go, I wanted to ask all who read this if you will send me a letter stating how you have come to know that this Gospel is true. For I realized just the other day, that I've never asked about your conversion stories before. And I know we all have conversion stories. No matter the fact that we've been in the church all our lives. We all have one. Even I do. Mine is simple really. And if you want to know it, just write to me and ask me! :D

Thank you all for being fantastic! I hope that you enjoy your week and I pray that it's full of blessings and miracles".

Missionary Moments

"The intensity of our desire to share the gospel is a great indicator of the extent of our personal conversion." - Elder Dallin H. Oaks

"Oh how I love this Gospel! I'm so grateful for the love of my Savior and His tender mercy upon my soul. And for the love that I know He has for all of you. I can't tell you what a joy it is to be able to live the Gospel, engulfed by the spirit and the Lord's powerful love. It's definitely not something that can be described easily. I'm so grateful to be here and to be learning all these things. I know that this is where I'm supposed to be. And how lucky I feel that I get to serve my Savior in the best way possible and know that my family will be taken care of!" -Sister Kierstan Babbel

Kiersti Got Transferred Again!

Kierstan is now in Altrincham England, her new area! I know she would love to hear from everyone so I will post her new address for you. She says to "send letters in the post!"

TRANSFERRED!

Kierstan was transferred this week and is now, once again, in LIVERPOOL! She is also part of a Trio companionship with Sister Hulet and Sister Maughn. She said President Bullock called her to tell her she would be returning to liverpool and would be part of the Trio and that he didn't know why, but the Lord needed her there for a specific purpose. It will be interesting to find out how things go and if she is ment to once again work with Marie, the investigator that she had to leave behind last time. Good Times!! :)

Bitter Sweet Times

Last week we sent Kierstan's grandmother (my mother) back to her Heavenly Father. Kierstan was so sad to receive this news and wrote a song that I would like to share with you. It is a tribute to her grandmother and an expression of her faith in Our Savior Jesus Christ.

HOLD ON TO HIS LIGHT

Born in this world, with troubles and strife.
From a place full of love and the Lord's glorious light.

The Gospel you heard, a tune so familiar.
You followed your heart, becoming peculiar.

CHORUS:
Hold on to His light, hold on to His love
Hold on because He knows you, He is always there.

A treasure you held, the warmth burning bright.
A gift full of love, you are always in His sight.

From gthe years came your strength, you standard never changed.
You taught the Gospel well, and the whispering spirit sang.

CHORUS:



You fought a good fight, you faith weas strong.
Though you left your body here, I know you still live on.

Into Heaven you have gone, clothed magnificently in white
The mediator stands, Your Savior, you never lost sight.

CHORUS:

Merry Christmas! :)

After this last transfer Kierstan is still in Oldham with Sister Jones as her companion. They have had snow and cold weather and a wonderful baptism to go along with it. She sends her love and Christmas Wishes to all her friends and family. Kierstan will be calling at 11:00am on Christmas so we are looking forward to hearing her voice (probably with an accent) for the first time since she left in May! Merry Christmas to Everyone!!
