Rachel has been worshiping the Lord with us on Sunday at our church in Waynesboro. She always had a smile on her face and you could tell that she had Jesus in her heart. She left here serving God and what a testimony to her family and friends. She will be missed greatly. LOVE FROM WAYNESBORO MENNONITE CHURCH: Ronnie & Debbie Baber
