On Friday April 24 we had the opportunity to go to the Johannesburg temple to attend the wedding and sealing of our branch president. When we arrived at the temple we went to the distribution center and found that a zone of elders who had just gone through the temple. Most zones near the temple get to go once a transfer. Most of the Vaal Zone goes except for our district which seems to be too far away.

Elders Beer and Stilgoe – thumbs up from elder Stilgoe. Elders Holmquist and Adjin.

Elders Nonumwar and Arthur. We also met the group from the Potchefstroom branch. Mary is with sisters Williams, Mogapi, Thulo and brother David Rampai.

Another couple looking forward to being married in the temple – Bryan and Meise. The Johannesburg temple celebrates the 30th anniversary this year.

No one told me that it was red tie day…Bryan and president Kwaikwai got the message. It is official – the new Mr and Mrs Kwaikwai.

After the sealing we went to a local chapel for the reception. Our dear friend sister Taylor was kind enough to make a delicious and beautiful cake for the occasion. The top layer was a to kill for banana, the middle layer was strawberry, the bottom layer was chocolate with Oreos. She used real flowers to add to the beauty.
