Yes, another wedding!

That's right! Two weddings in one week. This time it was Débora and Gil who had a religious ceremony. They were married over a year ago in a civil ceremony, like Sandra and Humberto's at the beginning of the week. Débora had hoped to have the religious ceremony at her family's church in Brazil, but they saw that they could not afford the trip, so they took advantage of some of Gil's family being here on vacation from France and had the ceremony now.

The ceremony was held under a tent outside a hotel, part of the strategy being that if the service had been held at the church, many of Gil's family, who are staunch Catholics, would not have attended. As it was, Gil and Débora had some misgivings about how his family would react to an evangelical service. As we were leaving, Gil said that his family were all very impressed with the service. One lady told me this was the first time she had ever been in an evangelical service, and she really appreciated the message I gave. Pray for the continued witness of the Word among these people through the lives of Débora and Gil.

Music was provided by a violinist.
