Our friend Luis got married last week. There were about 50 guests that attended the simple civil ceremony. We were honored to be invited and had a great time at the reception, with food, lots of dancing and good conversation with new friends. 
The kids here are family of the bride and groom. The little girl is Mel, she is Alex and Zoraida's daughter. She is such a sweetie.
Luis is Zoraida's younger brother. Zoraida and her husband Alex are friends of ours, they were some of the first we met when we arrived to Cusco in January. Zoraida and Luis are Christians, or at least have come from a Christian family. They both walked away from the Lord many years ago, but in the last several months have decided to return and walk with God. Alex isn't a believer yet, but he comes over for Bible study sometimes, and askes really good questions. He wants a change in his life, but so far the pull of the world has been stronger than his desire to follow God. Luis' new wife Sheyla isn't a believer either, she has never come over to our house, but we are praying for her. And if Luis really wants to follow Christ, I know he will be a good influence on his wife.
