Hey mom thanks so much for the email and I'm glad to hear updates from everyone about life and back home. You are right mom that my time here has been amazing and I've grown so many relationships with great people!

First of all congratulations to the boys and girls soccer for winning some close games and getting to state! That is so exciting! Let me know how they do. Also mom I'm glad you had some time to go to the temple. Our mission President promises us that if we get our recent converts to the temple they will be forever faithful and it's the same for us. When we go to the temple we grow closer to God so I'm so glad you went!
That's so good to hear that Reid did a good job and all the boys were there! They are so Awesome and he's gonna be such a good missionary. Thanks for reading those talks too and learning! The blessings of tithing and all the commandments are so real, it's just up to us to recognize them.
I sure do love you guys and pray every day that you all are safe and well. I'll be looking for that package mom and thanks for helping me out. Spencer texted me today so we are going to stay in touch for sure!
My Week
What a week it was I cant believe it already flew by and my time is coming to end here in Washington but I'll take everything I have learned and work hard in Mexico! This was transfers so we had some switch ups in the zone and we got Elder Fairholm and it's so much fun! We did a lot of getting things organized and planned. We are working with a couple of people right now but nothing too exciting.
What was exciting was in our Zone. On Wednesday some elders had a baptism and we were late because that was transfer day! But the Lord came through and helped Isaac get baptized. Then on Friday we had a meeting with the Pasco missionaries and it was an interesting evening. The sisters brought their friend who was getting baptized on Saturday to show her the font but she had some issues and was just acting really weird so we gave her a priesthood blessing and she felt better and it was a crazy miracle because she was baptized on Saturday and it was such a special experience for her and she was really happy!
Today we are going on my "mission tour" to say goodbye to people because it's my last p day here and we get to go to Basin City and see the Shaws so I'm hyped.
I love the gospel of Jesus Christ with my whole heart. I am sad to leave Washington but excited to see who the Lord has prepared for me in Mexico and I'll do what he wants me to do. I love you all and have a good week.
Love Elder Reiley
