Report of Brother Hiram and Sister Monica’s Wedding
Let us rejoice and exult, and let us give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has
come, and His wife has made herself ready. ( Rev. 19:7)
21st July was really an unforgettable day, on this day we held the wedding ceremony for our
dear brother Hiram and dear sister Monica. More than 150 saints include their relatives joined this
ceremony with us, full of glory and rejoice.
Brother Hiram had the burden for the Lord’s move in this Country, he also had the wish
before that he can marry with one local sister here, so that his wife can be the helper to him for
the Lord’s work in this Country. It is because of this burden and lots of prayers, through the
burdened aged saints in the church, the Lord prepared this sister Monica for him. This sister and
her family were quite open to God, fear God and have the pure heart for the truth. Sister Monica
also had the service in their church, went out to contact the people with her companions through
door knocking, it is also by the door knocking she got to know one sister, and through this sister
the Lord arranged this marriage, Praise the Lord!
In another hand, their marriage was quite difficult, like the spiritual warfare. This is not
because of their languages and cultures are different, the main thing we discussed for quite a long
time is that how to hold this wedding ceremony. In this country, the wedding at least lasts for 3
days, there must be the Pastor who will hold the wedding, as well as lots of the traditional
functions, if anyone doesn’t do his marriage according to this traditional way, all their relatives will
not happy, it will be very shameful to their family also.
For preparing this wedding, all the serving ones had lots of fellowships and prayers. We were
not fighting with any person, but fighting against the tradition and religion in this country. We
determined that there will be no any space and ground for the tradition and religion, the marriage
must be the pure testimony of Christ and the Church. Because of this, there were lots of
fellowships with the sister’s parents and the saints who introduced this marriage, as well as their
pastor in their church. Finally, they agreed with it.
On the wedding day, there were no dancing, no special music, no anything was according to
what they did in the previous weddings’ functions, but there were full of the words of God, full of
the testimonies concerning Christ the church. More than 50 saints also came to support us and
strengthen the meeting (15 saints from Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore and Kasur, and more than
35 saints from Karachi). The wedding is simple but holy, full of the heavenly rejoice.
After the wedding we also contacted with sister’s family concerning their relatives’ response
toward the wedding. Her family testified that they are so blessed this time, most of their relatives
enjoyed such a wedding very much, some young sisters also had the desire that in the future they
also will have their wedding in this way. Even her father’s some Muslim friends also said that this is
the real Christian’s wedding, the Christian wedding should be held in this way. We praise and
thank the Lord that He preserved some people to stand with Him to against this corrupted religion
world, to become the testimony of Jesus, and to be the pattern to others. May the Lord gain this
new family for His move in this country.
