Sister Simon’s Saints

WELCOME!
I’m Sister Simon.
Hi! I’m Ramón.
Hello. I’m Cathlyn.
I’m Mei Lin.
Hi! I’m David.
And I’m Joshua.

Thanks for coming with me, Mei Lin. I really needed to visit Timmy’s grave, but it makes me so sad.
I don’t know how it feels to lose a little brother, Marcia, but it must be awful. I’m glad I can help a little.

Oh, Mei Lin, he’s gone forever! How will I stand it?

He is not gone forever—he’s with Heavenly Father. He’s safe and happy, and he still loves you.
You’re just saying that to make me feel better. You don’t really believe it.

I do! I know that Jesus died for us and was resurrected. Timmy’s spirit is still alive, and someday it will be joined with his body again. It’s the truth! I feel it in my heart.

I—I think I feel something, too, Mei Lin. Something peaceful. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking.
Not wishful—hopeful. Because of Jesus we can all have hope.
