Did you really just say 'please'? 🤦‍♀️ (10/21/24)

 What's up y'all!?!?! I hope you had a good week! Mine was pretty good! Eventful when I talk about it! So let's dive in!


Deep diving: 
☆District activity on Monday! We played card games and such and it was just so fun! This district is hilarious!  
☆Book of Mormon class was so good! Kathy, (our friend) loves to come and always has great insights!
☆Service!! We learned how to feed the animals!! It's gonna be so good!! 
☆District council! Again this district is hilarious! So district council is so fun!
☆Impromptu district lunch!! We went to Buffalo wild wings! Yum! Also fun!
☆Excahnges! Our STL is training a new missionary, so I GOT TO BE WITH A 'BABY'!! I've literally wanted to train my whole mission, but have yet to... so it was cool to be with a trainee for a day! 
☆Church was so good!! We had 4 friends come! (🤯🤩❤️) and we had a young man speak who started the MTC today! (So his no-longer-called-a-farewell-talk talk) He's going to Brazil! His talk was amazing!! 
☆Member meals!😋
☆The Cindrics!! They're a cutie couple in the ward! They have us for dinner once a week, and every Sunday she makes us a pack lunch to have!! Love them!! 
☆Title of this email reason: We were eating lunch in the kitchen talking to the Elders on Sunday, when a member came in to talk to us and show us a magic trick. He did it on me and he asked me my favorite magic word. You know what I said? I said please! Like who does that!?!?🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ He even looked and me and asked: Please? I just nodded my head! (Can you tell I work with kids? Lol 🤦‍♀️😭😂)

You just sit on your butt and look cute! - Sister Cindric (she was talking to her husband) 

Friends:
☆Kathy comes to the Book of Mormon class every Tuesday night and she set reoccurring lessons for herself! She's an active 7th Day Adventist tho, so we've been clarifying some doctrine. But if you don't know that she's not a member, if you met her you would think she is, cause she totally talks and acts like a member, so, yeah! She's going to make chili for the ward chili cook-off/harvest party on Wednesday! 
☆Debbie had family over this last week and is crazy busy this week, but hopefully she'll be able to come to the ward party on Wednesday!
☆Rusia (Rue-see-a) and Kiryn (Ka-rin) are teens were teaching. We haven't met with them lately, but hopefully soon. And hopefully they come to the ward party too! 

Spiritual thought:
Nothing is impossible with Christ. Nothing at all. He literally is the reason for everything. Song lyrics to prove my point:
"I'll praise the God who's proven He can do impossible things..." That's who I praise - Brandon Lake
"I will sing Hallelujah to the One! Who can do what the world says can't be done..." Worship through it - Tasha Layton ft. Chris Brown
Last night as I was literally almost asleep, my brain freaked me out with the fact that I'm going to school in a few months. That's scary! But so was coming on a mission... at first. Christ made everything possible, through Him, we can literally do anything! So we're all good! (I'm good now, I reasoned this thought in my head last night and went to sleep) 

Ok my friends and family, that's all for this email! We have Zone conference this week! Elder Daines of the 70 and his wife are coming! So exciting!! I'll let you know how that goes! I hope you all have a great week! Love y'all!
Love Sisters Alex Hersom!

  Howdy all! I hope you had an exciting week! I know I did, so let's get started!! Highlights: ☆Tuesday we had district council because transfers are on Thursdays now instead of Fridays. So fun! We had a good quickish council and then Elder Reynolds had a surprise for us. Sister Lilya was getting ready to go home, and apparently when a missionary goes home he does this. We played Jepordy! Yep! It was actually really fun! Sadly I can't remember who won and who lost, but I do remember it was really, really close.  ☆After that we had district lunch!! We went to El Toro, which is a Mexican place, and it was good!  ☆Sadly after that I got sick. Not from the restaurant, I just did. Monday I went to bed with a small scratch in my throat and when I woke up Tuesday morning, it was worse. Sad day. So I spent some sick time.  ☆We did however get to go to a member meal with the Andersons! I love them! They're so fun!!  ☆Tuesday evening we got a call from the APs. And Sister...

 Hey-ho people-o!! (There's a new one for ya!!) Hope that you've all been well, and that it hasn't been to overwhelmingly hot for ya! My week was good, honestly pretty uneventful as of big things so. All good, all good! So let's see what happened: Highlights:  ☆It poured rain on Tuesday and I absolutely loved it!! ☆The weather has cooled down since it's been raining, so that's been nice! ☆It's also been windy lately which is nice when we're outside! ☆Sister Roberts thought it would be funny to scare me, so she did. And I let out this really delayed, really dramatic scream. She didn't even scare me that bad, yet here we are. (You better watch out Sister Roberts, payback is coming) ☆We had District council this week! Yay! (We didn't have it last week because of Zone conference) ☆We had some good lessons with friends this week!  ☆The circus came to town!!! It's cool to see! ☆Sister Roberts loves to take pictures of me wearing my sunglasses, it...

Trio life in Beavercreek (3/11/24)

  Hello! Hello! How was the week? Was it good? Or hard? Or in between? I'd love to hear about it!! Anyway my week was good, from my title toy can honestly probably guess what it's about, so here's the full story! Highlights: ☆Tuesday I hit 9 months!! And that was fun! Honestly the day was kinda rough as Facebook kicked everyone off and I couldn't remember my password and ultimately Sister Hopes had to get a new Facebook. But aside from that we got a ton of balloons from it, and Chick-fil-A! So, ya know, good! ☆Wednesday we waited alllllllllll day(!) For transfer news that wouldn't come til after 9pm. So when we finally forgot that they were coming, transfer news came! So Sister Hopes and I stayed and we also got another companion! And I'm senior comp now! (😁😱)  ☆District council!!! It was so good!! And fun!! And the testimonies were fire, and so was Sister Tolman getting her spirit animal! (Which we got to help with, as elder Stevenson asked us for suggestions...
