Wedding Bells Ringing

Being in Guatemala 20 years has allowed us to watch children grow into adults. One of our greatest joys has been to attend many of their weddings. Some of them grew up in the Children’s Bible Study while others were in the Boy’s Club we had years ago. Featured in the recent weddings below is one of the members from the Boy’s Club and separately, one of the girls that grew up in the Children’s Bible Study. This month, we were also present at an engagement event. Roxana grew up in the Children’s Bible Study. She is now a teacher at a private school and comes back to teach the Children’s Bible Study from time to time. We look forward to her upcoming wedding.
