Couples Night

It's couples night for 2nd Branch. This is Praveen and Sangeetha and there 2 month old baby. We teach a family and marriage class and because of where we are we feel this is one of the most important things we do. We do a lot of praying and have a lot of concern for how we teach this class. We could write a book on the problems that are caused by parents picking out their sons marriage partner. Also kids getting married and living with their parents forever!!! These young people
never make their own decisions, their parents do it for them.


As part of our class we decided it was important to teach them how to continue the courtship so we planned a date night and we danced and we played games and we ate. I'll bet you will never guess what we ate????
CHICKEN BERINJI of course!!! It's a given. If you go to someones home you will have rice and curry or rice, curry and chicken berinji. I took banana bread (their favorite) and some muffins. The power went off about 45 minutes into our party. So we stopped dancing and played a fun song game, men against women. The women sing a song and the last letter of the song (like Moon River would be r...the last letter of river) the men have to think of a song that starts with that letter in so many seconds. Then back to the women. It was fun to see the personalities come out as they sang in Telegu!! They often switch modes and speak or play in telegu! We could tell they were having fun but that's about it.
