My Weekend-Part 2
This afternoon I went to The Well to attend the wedding of another young gal I know there. It is so exciting to see these young people start anew with a desire to follow Jesus. This wedding was small and simple yet profound because of the earnestness of this young couple in their focus on God.
The attendees all fit inside the house.:)
Pastor Jim gave a very practical message in Thai. I like listening to farangs speak Thai because it is easier for me to understand.:) When he told the couple they could kiss, they grinned self consciously and refrained. Public display of affection is not generally part of Thai culture, though that seems to be changing some in urban areas.
Sao and Ping (I am not positive about Ping's name--will correct it if I find I am wrong:)
Jim and Judy with the bride and groom
Yours truly with the couple:)
After a simple meal and, of course, feeding each other cake, the couple headed off to go to work.:)
And one more thing, boys will be boys. A couple little guys were trying--rather unsuccessfully while I videoed them, to pop the heart balloon decorations with darts at the end of the wedding celebration.
