Ben’s & Kate’s Friend

Last night I went to our church and worked the sound for a wedding rehearsal.  And by sound I mean I plugged my MacBook Pro into the sound system and ripped the MP3’s of the songs needed onto it and used the remote control to start, stop, adjust the volume and switch tracks.  Wee!  But this post isn’t about how the Apple has made my life easier, its about a new life that’s about to start as two lives become one.

Ben & Kate have been going to the Tuesday night study that I’m part of.  Kate is the siter of the hosting family and as she started dating Ben he showed up.  In the shorter time that I’ve known Ben it has become apparent that he’s just a neat, neat guy and in the longer time I’ve known Kate it has been apparent that she’s a really awesome bride-to-be.

I’m looking forward to their wedding almost as much as they are.  I’m pretty sure that they’ve had a sleepless night, they’re probably about ready to jump out of their skin about now.  But rought 11:30 or so they should officially be married and beginning their amazing life together.  Sure, there’ll be sickness and health, richer times and poorer times, Denver Post and maybe New York Times, but wherever they live, whatever they do I’l be praying for them and joining many, many folks in holding them up.

My name tag said, “Randy, Ben’s and Kate’s Friend: Sound”, I’m not sure about being sound (though I’ve been called noisy), but I’m thrilled to be their friend.  Congratulations Ben & Kate!
