Gloria & Ronnies wedding

Gloria is Stella sister. She and Ronnie were married on Saturday at Kampala Pentecostal Church which seats 2000. We arrived on time at 11 with the bride. By 11:30 there were about 50 guests and so the service began. Amazing - not time to tell it here but if you get the opportunity to go to a wedding in Uganda take it. Two hours later by the end of the service there were over 500 people present. The 'smal'l reception for 400 on the shore of Lake Victoria was wonderful..... all the parents get to say something (interesteing idea) and it was a thrill to hear them speak and to share their delight at the marriage of thier offspring who both proudly told us all that they had "kept themselves pure" and that they wanted all their friends present to know how much Jesus loved them and cared for them..... get me to tell you about it sometime.
