As Mike previously mentioned, our purpose for traveling to Oregon was to attend Stephanie's wedding. This whole weekend, I kept thinking what a blessing it is to invest your time, life, and love in someone by discipling them and one of the joys in doing so is witnessing their growth in Christ and sharing in their life's milestones. Stephanie marrying John was an answer to many years of praying. And to see her and John make their vows, brought tears to my eyes.
The ceremony was held at the First Baptist Church,
downtown Portland.
downtown Portland.
One of the highlights during the ceremony happened while Stephanie and John took communion; John's parents sang "How Beautiful"- in English and in Korean (John's nationality). Both his parents' voice were heavenly; matter-of-fact, we found out that his father is a music prodigy.
Off they go!
Now it's time to party. The reception was held at the Tiffany Center (also in downtown Portland - a few blocks away from the church.)
After a week in Maui for their honeymoon, Stephanie will return to Vallejo next week for her graduation and then jet off to Minnesota where she will do her residency for 4 years. I will definitely miss her but looking forward to visiting her in the Midwest.
Congratulations! Mr. & Mrs. Lee
