Take me back!! (10/14/24)

 Hello, hello! How are y'all? Good?! I sure hope so!! My week was good but my weekend was better! So let's get started!!


The goodness:
☆The cutie Book of Mormon class we had with our friends on Tuesday night!
☆Interviews with President Rasmussen! They were so good! 
☆SERVICE!!! I'M IN AN AREA WITH SERVICE!!! AND IT'S WITH THE TIPP CITY SISTERS!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳❤️❤️❤️❤️🥹🥹🥹 We do service on a farm! We'll get to work with animals!! Literally like cows, pigs, horses, goats, turkeys, donkeys, etc... I know I'm from the "farm land" and this is a regular occurance for me to see them daily im Idaho, but I'm literally so stoked!!
☆The stake had a culture night! In the Dayton North stake there's the Marshallese group, a Spanish branch and as of a few week ago, a Haitian branch!!🥳🥳🥹🥹 It was so fun!! And the Haitian branch president remembered me from when I served in Springfield!😭🥹🥹🥳🥳❤️❤️ He and his wide also preformed a cute dance they do in Haiti! They looked so happy! It made my heart swell!
☆JACOB GOT BAPTIZED!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️  Guys this guy is going to go places and I'm so excited for him!! 
(Hence the name of this email, was for those last 2) 
☆Church was good! We had 3 friends come!!
☆We're getting to know some members! Whoop whoop! 

The part you've been waiting for:
10/7-10/15
Peep my face while I look at my calendar - Sister Brewer to her phone 
This smells like a man... can I take this home with me? Sister Brewer talking about candles
I don't have a man, so I smell candles - Sister Brewer still talking about candles

Friends; Liberty:
☆Jacob got baptized on Saturday!!! I got to zoom in for a little bit of it and he looked so happy!! 🥳🥳🥹🥹❤️❤️
☆Cameron hasn't had coffee in a week!🤯🤯🥳🥳 So hopefully soon!! 
Huber Heights:
☆Debbie is reading the Book of Mormon and coming to church! (She sadly couldn't make it yesterday) She's pretty cool!
☆Kathy also reads and comes to church! She also comes to the Come Follow Me: Book of Mormon class we have on Tuesdays! 
☆Kiryn (pronounced Corin) is cool! She's a senior in high school and has been coming to church and stuff for like a year!🤯 
More on everyone as we get to know them!

Spiritual thought:
What's next? This is the question Jacob asked Sister LeSueur after he was baptized. And I so love that he did! Baptism is not the end, but merely the first step. Our Heavenly Father has so many blessings in store for us, we just have to do what he asks! It's pretty simple, but sometimes it's hard. Sometimes it's hard to take that next step. 
But that's why we have faith in Jesus Christ, repent daily, renew our covenants by taking the sacrament each week, and listen to the holy ghost! So we can have that amazing mindset of: What's next?


Well friends that's all for this week! I hope that you all have an amazing week! I love you all! Thanks for the continued love and support! Write again next week! 
Love Sister Alex Hersom!

From babies to mamas (7/15/24)

  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...
