Wedding

We had another wedding at the church. A couple who has come to our Monday night ministry asked if I would marry them. I was, of course, pleased to do so. They have been together about 5 years and wanted to make it right. It's awesome how when you minister to people who have not had a pastor, they freak out and feel blessed by things like getting married with no one in the chapel but me, them, John, Joe and Jessie and Sara as witnesses.

Roy and Bethany recite their vows.





First kiss!



And, of course, we had to celebrate! Roy and Bethany have been having some landlord trouble (all too common on the Northside, where it is easy to victimize the poor). They had walked a long way to get to the church. And they were just going to go home. Well, we could not do that! I had just reminded them in the service that Jesus had "adorned" a wedding at Cana. And if I remember right, there was a party, a party that His first miracle kept rocking! So it was off to Golden Corral!




The Happy Couple!
