One exciting event in the life of Kingsway’s leadership is that Milly’s daughter Comfort got married to one of Kingsway’s teachers, Ivan.
Comfort is 32 and has taught at Kingsway for many years, and has served as school headmaster too. Ivan is a graduate of Kingsway who now teaches Physics, Math and Computer along with coaching sports. You can hear his story here.
During the September school break, their families celebrated a traditional Lugbara wedding and over 2000 guests came! Below Comfort is kneeling before her elders and introducing them to Ivan.
In December they had a Christian ceremony at St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Okuvu, near Kampala, where Milly and Sam Erema served as priests. After this Comfort and Ivan were officially considered “married.”
.
Once again, over a thousand people came! Sam ministered to several small congregations of the Lugbara people group. Because of this, many parishioners wanted to attend his daughter’s wedding.
About 50 Kingsway students attended. The students provided the live wedding music by singing and playing instruments, with Comfort’s brother Dan in the lead. Comfort herself sometimes led the students in song.
Congratulations again, Comfort and Ivan!
