Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the father: Ye shall have eternal life. -2 Nephi 31:20

Farewell Elder Reeves!

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the father: Ye shall have eternal life. -2 Nephi 31:20

Parker Marsden and Ryan spoke together in the Mueller Park ward in Bountiful. 

Both Ryan and Parker gave an awesome farewell. It was a powerful sacrament meeting.
These two will be incredible missionaries!

The Marsdens were so nice to open their home to our own family and friends following the farewell(s). 
Brothers-in-law Nyall and Reid with babies Connor and Max
(Can't wait to see how much they'll change during Ryan's mission!)

Ryan and Brian Reeves - they won't see each other for 4 years!
Ryan was able to give a farewell in California as well since Mom and Dad are serving as Mission Presidents over the Riverside Mission. He gave a great talk in both wards.
