Cell Wedding

I attended the wedding of a cell member on Saturday. Most of us were roped in to help out - Brenda, Kevin, Lizzie, Thoo and I were part of reception. Andrew was the guitarist, Perrine the MC and Alvin the sound guy! We had a lot of fun doing what we did, and the weather was beautiful too. We were worried that we'd all be sunburnt as it was a garden wedding and it had been about 33 deg. Celcius the past week - heatwave!

A wedding like this is what makes cell group really fun. Its not just about meeting on Fridays to do worship and read the bible together, its having a sense of belonging and trust, knowing that there's a group of people you can always count on.... inspite of our differences and weaknesses.

Brenda, Lizzie & myself having a drink before our reception duty. It was really hot!
Our cell group occupied 1 table... we squeezed in an extra person at our table. Everyone having less to eat is better than having 1 cell member sitting somewhere else!
Everyone grabbed the dessert real quick. To our embarrassment, one of my cell members 'ta pau-ed' (doggie bagged) some from other tables.. in a transparent plastic bag!
The whole cell group. Chelsea looked radiant and Alistair... charming!
I now pronounce you husband and wife....*music plays*

Feels like deja vu for Andrew and Lizzie. Hehe.

That's a great thing about cell. Sharing life together. :)
