I officiated a renewal of vows tonight for a couple in our church that’s been married for 20 years. I told them during the ceremony that they got married when I was 12.
I sat in my office trying to figure out what to say to them. Here’s what I came up with: Thank you! Marriages aren’t doing so well these days and I was so encouraged to see a couple stick it out for 20 years. It’s awesome.
The highlight of the evening was during the reception when some of the decorations caught on fire and the fire alarm went off, but the music was so loud and everyone was dancing so they didn’t even notice.
So who came to the rescue? Yours truly. I put it out with the bottled water I was drinking! “Thank you Aquaman!”
