Last weekend, the 14th class of the Bible School for Single Brothers graduated with much rejoicing. Many traveled to Maputo for the joyous occasion, including family members of the graduates from all over the country as well as missionaries and those in the traveling work. On this special day, it would be the first time that each graduate would receive an assignment during the graduation program. The graduates were anxiously anticipating their new assignments as revealed by their serious faces.
The graduation program was quite moving and was followed by a reception staged in the branch's garage. Hors d'ouvres were served and the graduates treated the guests to more spirited singing of two kingdom songs (video at the end). All of the brothers and sisters were filled with such joy on this special occasion--they were laughing non-stop, they were posing for pictures, passing babies around and playing with children.

WONDERFUL! Thanks so much for your awesome posts! Such an encouragement to us here in the US.
I love the video! I always wish I had recordings of the singing at special events, because it's hard to really enjoy hearing it while you are participating.
So, did you have the babies brought in for the passing around specifically, or did they belong to people there? Lol.
