Ndizeka, of Myhre fame , wed J, one of our teachers, last Saturday. J and N have had a long courtship with many twists and turns. We’re so thankful to finally see them joined in their hearts desire before God. The wedding was quite an event. Large, beautiful and quite western though with some unique aspects. I baked the wedding cake and Christ School girls helped us decorate the car for transporting teachers to the wedding. Quinn and his friend Gaby enjoyed a unique vantage point as they endured three plus hours in the church for the wedding itself before heading to hours more of reception. Naomi joined the wedding party as a flower girl alongside her team friends; Liana, Julia and Acacia and staff friends; Benjamin and Bethany. I cried watching Naomi walk down the aisle, not for any of the usual sentimental wedding reasons but because I am so proud of her courage to step into the culture. As they exited their arrival vehicle in Bundibugyo town, site of the wedding, African “street children” mobbed the car. As they entered the church all eyes were on the “buzungu” (white) children. Yet through all the attention, the hours and hours and hours of speeches and events, the staring, the touching, the laughing . . . . Naomi managed to delight in the day and the chance to share the beauty of J’s wedding. What an answer to many prayers for our children.
