I guess one of the great blessings of teaching the career workshops is the enduring connections that we make with the people here in Brazil. Just this last week, José one of our younger students invited us to his wedding and baptism. I'd love to be able to claim that our amazing teaching skills and wonderful class convinced José to get baptized and married! However, the marriage and baptism were a long time coming and we were absolutely thrilled to be able to be a small part of it! The ceremony happened Saturday night at the chapel. It was a simple ceremony, not many people came (not even the family of the groom, neither of the families were of the church) but it was clear that José and his fiance were definitely having the time of their lives! Right afterwards the two were baptized, something they had been waiting for for a long time.
