LOVE AND MARRIAGE.

One of the privileges of working with young people is that you get invited to their weddings, and that's especially exciting if you know them really well ( it can also make you realise you are getting on a bit!).

In recent years, the Ignite team have seen loads of people who have worked with us over the years, get married. John and Rachel Settatree, Dave Lyle, Maaike Van der Toorren, Paul Read, and Laura Picton (now Dernley). On Saturday, a bunch of us went to Broadhaven Baptist Church in Pembrokeshire, West Wales, to the wedding of Becky Williams. Becky met us through Flames of Fire, now New Wine Cymru, organised the Ignite programme there one year, and volunteered on and off with us throughout her university years in Cardiff. She's definitely been to more Ignite Christmas dinners and leaving parties than anyone except Gary, Anita and myself. A bunch of other Flames of Fire young people are getting married in the next couple of months, and it's fantastic to see them all flourishing in the purposes of God: Mark Nam, Lois Richards, Craig Wakeling, Ellen Griffith. Gill and I will be going to some of the weddings, so I'll be your wedding correspondent for a while.

Hey Nigel, Kayi and I are really looking forward to seeing you and Gill on Sunday : ) Hope you are both well.

I love it when christians get married - it is usually so focused on God and such a celebration.
(I went to a humanist wedding once - it was SO depressing)
Have a great time at all those weddings - I know you will!
