I have the pleasure of officiating the wedding ceremony for a couple of our friends tomorrow. Marc and Sara are part of our volunteer staff, working with this years’ senior class. They are tremendous leaders, and that group of seniors have grown in depth and number this year largely because of Marc and Sara’s hard work. They model what it means to love Jesus and others, and I am excited to see what God does through them in the years to come.
The wedding will take place in a lovely outdoor setting, near a little stream in the country outside of State College. We were out there this afternoon for the rehearsal. Tomorrow’s going to be a beautiful day.
I’ve done lots of weddings, and I am generally a “go with the flow” kind of guy. But when we arrived at the barn (General Potter’s Barn, no less) we were greeted by a wandering goat. A few seconds later, his friend the cat strolled in. I’m pretty sure that I’ve never done a wedding with a goat nibbling at the flowers and a cat rubbing up against my legs, but tomorrow just might be the day.
Whatever happens, I am blessed to be a part of the festivities, and blessed to call Marc and Sara my friends.
