The new Promise Lodge colony is doing well and welcoming more to its community. They are about to have their first wedding, proving that the community is building a foundation for the future. The Bishop delivers a somewhat narrow-minded wedding sermon. Town co-founder and widower, Mattie Schwarts, believes marriage and family are not the most important of God's gifts. Preacher Amos Troyer has feelings for Mattie and would love it if she would consider getting married again.
