LAUREN WAS BAPTIZED!!

Buenos Dias!

Family and friends, HELLO!!!! I sure do love you all! It has been a super good week and there have been many miracles and b

lessings that i have seen here in Washington! For one, LAUREN GOT BAPTIZED!! I am SOOOO happy for her! She was beaming when she came out of the water. The spirit was so strong in that room! She bore her testimony at her baptism and told everyone how she came to know about the gospel and the missionaries. She said a little something like this, "So I started sitting in with my sisters lessons with one set of missionaries. Then the elders in Skyway found me. Then I went to my friends farewell talk in this YSA ward and the sisters said that they were stealing me from the elders." Everyone got a laugh out of that and i guess it is pretty much true! haha! :D I love her and I am grateful that we were able to 'steal her'. It truly is a privilege to help someone better understand the gospel and how it can influence their lives for the better.

 We had the chance to do lots of service this past week. We helped at the Bishops store house and the food bank. We also helped Brother Carter, our neighbor and owner of the cottage, with some yard work. It felt weird to be in Jeans so many times in a week! I might never want to wear anything but a dress/ skirt when I get home! (That isn't the whole truth... ;) 

 So Washington is doing some weird stuff with its weather. Some days, it’s raining and then the next day it is sunny! Today it started out sunny and now it is snowing. Help me please. I don’t understand how I should dress in the morning, for sun snow or rain. I basically keep a change of clothes in the car for anything that might happen! It’s crazy! It almost makes me miss the constant heat of Arizona... Almost.

 Nothing else really happened this week that needs to be mentioned really. We tracted, taught lessons and got rained on. That’s pretty much the usual but it still was a good week! I'll try to remember what happened throughout the week so i can give you better updates! i love you all and I hope that you’re week is amazing! Never forget that god loves you and that our Savior and Brother are there for us each and every day!

Love Sister Reynolds

Just a few pictures of us and Lauren! The group one is missing two of the missionaries who had taught her! She had quite a few!
