Wedding Fever

Let me tell you, if there was a river running down the middle of Marghita right now the 'Love Boat' would be on it. A few months ago a lot of people on our team here, or those who have been on our team a lot serving, were getting engaged. So we started joking around about "the fever" that was passing around the team. The joke isn't so much of a joke anymore as this fever is continuing like crazy. Today news of another happy couple hit the missionary streets here and I just have to laugh because it just keeps going. You have to understand that engagements, marriages and the such don't really happen so often on our team - at least since I've been here. But now, it's going crazy. And, you have to know that our team isn't that big at the moment. We're looking at the numbers below in perspective with a group of about 30 people, that itself including 6 kids. Here's the run-down of the past couple of months through now :

2 Weddings
3 Engagements
3 Seriously Dating Types

In the words of seasoned Marghita missionary Helena (she's been here longer than almost all of us), "We've never had this before!"

I'll try to get some more quotes to you all later on as I continue to tally the reactions of the rest of the team!

And no, Mom, none of those above include me. : )
