Why

"Sister Abeling you are herby called TO SERVE as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the England London Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months. "
... The best three sentences one could here. To serve. To serve who? The people of England? Myself? The church? All of those are ones I will help in the process, but no, I will serve the Lord, and help bring his children home. I couldn't think of any bigger or most humbling responsibility. To leave everything behind, my family, my friends, my job, my school, my phone, my everyday life.  Why would I do such a thing? Because I love the Lord thy God above all else. Because this gospel of Christ is true. It's a gospel based on love and joy. What an amazing thing! All the Lord does is because of his Love. This is a gospel of love, you can feel it round about. The happiness I am so blessed to receive is do to my knowledge of the Lord and his teachings. I want more than anything to share that joy with the world to help all return home to be with him. This is the true gospel. The Book of Mormon is the keystone, reading the words upon those pages will bring the greatest joy you have yet to experience. Reading that book, affirms the truth. The Lord loves YOU. He wants YOU to come back to his presence. The book is so important.that a 15 year old boy dedicated his life to bringing the book and the gospel back to this earth. It is SO important that I will leave my family to share it with the world. This is it. This gospel is so true. I KNOW that. While I'm on the Lords errand, I will be able to bring families together for eternity so that they may feel the joy and love this gospel brings. This is the work of the Lord. And I'm more than excited to fulfill my calling TO SERVE. I will go and do.

Yours faithfully,

Sister Abeling
