A fond farewell

The year is 1981. Ronald Reagan is leading the country. Sandra Day has been appointed to serve as the first woman on the U.S. Supreme Court.

While she is approved as a pastor, we cannot officially refer to Reynolds as Rev. Reynolds until she is ordained by the Presbytery. This ceremony will happen in August. And then, it will be cool to say Rev. Reynolds. It just rolls off the tongue. PHOTO COURTESY OF MARY GRACE REYNOLDS

Head in the clouds

Mary Grace Reynolds’ cat’s name is Thomas Jefferson.

“He’s currently sleeping in the chair that is for other people to sit in, and I’m trying to find a way to discourage him from doing that,” Reynolds said during her first day as Madison Valley Presbyterian Church’s new pastor.
