Christian marriage and a contextual priest

When I met Sherwin for the first time, I thought he was already married.

Recently he did get married to the love of her life. Now we can truly say- Sherwin ko koi Mili.....hehehe (By my immediate previous joke, my blog reaches a new low.)

I will never forget the father who presided over his wedding. He tried too hard to be contextual. He had this exceptional ability to take unrelated things with his flawed logic and relate it to the present occasion.

He opined since Sherwin was orginally from Middle East, he would bring international standards in SBI. He also said since Sherwin had specialised in Engineering, knowing computers helps a man think logical and therefore Sherwin would be a good husband.

Nevertheless, he also said, since Mili professionally worked with the Deaf and the Dumb, she could help Sherwin communicate with her better.

Sherwin had one complain with the priest. During the marriage Father did not ask him to kiss the bride. He approached me to get them remmaried. I did not agree-

"But for that I would either need to buy a ship or take a vow of celibacy"

I would rather have him kiss her in his own personal time.

May God bless their happy ending :)
