The Bishop, and the Bishop's Wife


You wait 6 months for a wedding, and the two come along together!
 
 
This week we were thrice ‘Graced’.

Another couple from the hospital, Paul and Grace, got married at the local Cathedral. Malcolm went to the service which was conducted by his Grace the Bishop of Luweero.
 
The reception, as is usual, was held outdoors under tents.
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 

On the same day Irene was off to see his Grace the Bishop’s wife. As the Bishop retires this year the Mother’s Union held a special event to thank his wife for being their President.

Everyone was expected to wear the tribal dress – a ‘Gomez’. Even better if it was in the colours of the Mothers’ Union – blue and white
 
  
 
  

 

This week’s proverb from the BBC Africa web-site is from Nigeria: “When an old woman falls down twice, people should check what is in her basket”.
