Saying Goodbye.

Elder Reynolds left for the MTC on November 20th, 2013. He will be English speaking, and will only be in Provo for about a week and a half. Saying goodbye was extremely difficult for all of us, but we know he will be a great missionary and can't wait to hear how he's doing. We'll be praying for him every day!
