On Friday afternoon the civil registrar arrived at our house to perform the civil wedding. That is the only one that has any legal standing in Bolivia. The immediate families and a few close friends were present for this ceremony. Afterwards there was a snack and people stayed until late visiting and getting to know each other.

Tonight the church wedding will be at the chapel in Montero. I will be heading into the city later to pick up the cake and get it back to Montero.
Along the way I pick up Fabian who will be spending the weekend with us. This will be the first time since he went into rehab that he will be back in Portachuelo.
Praying the time with Fabian goes well and that healing is taking place. Also praying for the newly married couple and those that will be of counsel to them in the coming days and years. I thank God for giving you the heart to serve.
ReplyDeleteWe know that this will be an extra special time of joy celebrating Christ's birth, the wedding, and a time of reunion for you and your family. We especially think of you at this time as well because we have recently found pictures to share with you of Oscar's quinceanera celebration. Check out our blog soon! :)
ReplyDeleteHugs to the both of you, everyone in your household, and friends in the church/school!
Your North American friends in Christ! :D L&D
