This Friday we celebrated the wedding of our newest female teacher, Gloria Mardi to Mr Sunil Sylvester Murmu.
The wedding was at Dhandjuri Church and the feast at Gloria’s home afterwards. There was music, traditional dancing, gifts and food.
The guests were invited to bless the couple by anointing their arms and faces with oil.
In the Santal culture the children will get the fathers last name, but the wife retains her family name even after marriage.
