What a wonderful day as Chris and I were able to celebrate the blessing of Zacarias and Yolanda's marriage in San Vicente. Weddings are such a communal event in Mexico especially in small towns. Costs for the couple and their families are keep down as friends volunteer to provide a variety of items for the festive event like food, drinks, flowers. cake, decorations, even table coverings. Yolanda asked me to sew 24 fabric squares in "her color", burgundy, that were used in enhancing the tables. A breezy day resulted in the outdoor reception being moved indoors, a little cozy!
When I asked her two days after the ceremony how things had changed, she expressed how she felt closer to God now that His umbrella was over them as a couple.
