What an amazing story!  Check this out!

“BRIDGEPORT, Conn. —  A Connecticut newlywed in her wedding gown is being credited with helping save a family from a Bridgeport house fire.

Officials say that Georgette Clemons had just left her wedding reception Sunday evening when she spotted smoke coming from a home on West McKinley Avenue.  Clemons got out of the car she was riding in and ran into the home. She says a woman was yelling about her animals and didn’t want to get out so she had to pull her out.

As firefighters arrived and battled the blaze after members of the Eitelberg family were rescued, Clemons was nearby folding her blackened wedding dress.  Clemons says she messed up her shoes, but says that’s no big deal because the people inside the burning home are safe.”

My favorite part is “she says she messed up her shoes, but says that’s no big deal because the people inside the burning home are safe.”  Wow.  What kinds of “stuff” are we putting in front of people, or in front of our marriage?  Take some time to prioritize the things, and more importantly the people, in your life.  Surely, if a bride can take time on her wedding day to help someone become safe, we can take time to make our marriage safe.
