Elder Kasper and I went to a wedding last night. We arrived at 5:30, which is the time it was suppose to start but it didn't start until 6. When we arrived Smetta, a cute 17 year old girl in 2nd branch ran to me and said, "Sister you are suppose to play the piano. Your name is on the program so come quickly." Then Pres Rao (District Pres.) came up and shook our hands and told us we are on the program to speak. Please take 10 minutes each! Lyerly's told us that is how it would be. You speak at the weddings and they never ask you ahead of time. I'll be a bit more prepared next time. (carry a 5-10 minute talk with me to every wedding I go to!)
Reggie is from Hyderabad 4th branch.....Metilda is from Chennai. (on the East coast)
After the wedding the bride went to change into her sari that you see here! When they came back everyone just sat there! Finally Pres. Monaharram came to tell us that everyone was waiting for us to greet the bride & groom before they got up. So we walked up to greet them and they wanted pictures. Then we were asked to go have dinner (on the basketball court outside the church). They told us if we would go, everyone would follow. So we did. I caught a few pictures of the man making the cooked bread.
Elder Kasper and I danced 1 dance alone. All the youth wanted to dance and asked us to start it.....but they didn't join in! Typical!!
