Dear Sister Herman,

Praying all is well with you. 

We had all the missionaries fill out a getting to know you form.  Elder Herman's answers were touching to me.  I thought you might enjoy reading a few.

Why did you decide to come on a mission?  I decided to come on a mission because it is one of our responsibilities as Priesthood holders. Also, it is like a tithing on my life, I’m giving 10% of what God has blessed me with in my life, 2 years. I love serving the lord! There’s more also :) 

Who is one of your heroes? My father has been. He has raised me to be who I am today; although I have a lot to improve I am who I am because of him and my mother. He is my hero. Words can’t describe what he has done for me.

Something that your mom would be proud of:  Before my mission I always took my mom out on dates. That was so fun;  I miss those times a lot. Me and my mom and dad got really close before I went to college, I was the last one in the house so we did everything together.                                                                                                         

 

What are some of your best attributes:  I care about everyone, my P. Blessing says that I have been blessed with the ability to seek out people who don’t feel like they fit in and make them feel good. I try to do this! I’m usually happy ha only when I’m not being selfish!

Elder Herman has grown tremendously.  His attitude is so positive and his faith is incredible.  We feel blessed to know the Herman family.  Thank you for your examples.  May God bless and lift you through the difficult times.  May He increase and magnify the happy times for you and all those dear to you.

Sincerely, Hermana Glazier
