An Indian Wedding: A Brief Photo Journey

Jeevan and Paulina Gorantla

Many Peoples, Yet One People

One of my desires for the use of this blog is to bring at least two worlds together. Though we are one body in Christ, believers all across the world are still very much separated from each other both geographically and culturally.

While our unity is in Christ, His word and the truth it contains, (things we hopefully have come to terms with) we could all do better to understand the contexts in which Christian ethnic groups all around the world live the Christian life.

In a small way I will contribute by utilizing this blog for that purpose. It should also be fun and exciting while informing us and bringing about a better understanding of God's world.

Today I am posting some photos from a good friend's wedding which took place last month.

Brief Background Bios

Jeevan has been based in Sweden working for ST-Ericsson for the last few years and has a strong desire to support ministries back in India. He is a really fun guy who loves the Lord, and it has been my privilege to be his friend. Paulina comes from a strong Christian family that has been involved in gospel ministry for several years. She also has a desire for ministry.

Come, rejoice with me in the glorious truth that death died in the death of Jesus Christ! Everyone is now welcome to come and freely take the water of life. (Rev 22:17)
