A Very Special Wedding Party


This is a very special wedding party photograph. On the left, with the shawl, is Jenny. Her brother Jonathan is in the center with his brand new bride, Lauren. They have just been married at St. Mary's Church in New Haven. They are very special people these three. Every summer they volunteer at a camp for kids with cancer - Camp Rising Sun, "A place where kids with cancer can smile and have fun." they have been doing this for a number of years. So when they were getting maried they invited a bunch of kids from the camp to their wedding, and were thrilled when all these kids came! And the kids themselves are an extraordinary group of brave children. It was moving to see the excitement of these kids because they were at the wedding. What an amazing day!

Uncle Ken,
I love that you chose this as the photo for the day! It meant so much to the kids to be able to share in Jon & Lauren's day in some way!
Thank you for taking it!
Love, Jenny

A wonderful wedding day. I was most touched by the large group of campers who attended their wedding service at St. Mary's Church!
