Let's Celebrate !!!

We met on a Easter Sunday on 04/20/2014 at St Eugene Catholic Church. This particular day I was wondering if I would ever find my wife. I came to realize that this time around I will let God guide me in my choice. I was praying for God's help and I remember looking up towards the ceiling of the sanctuary, praying and surrendering.... It was in that moment that I was opening my heart that I looked over across the room of the sanctuary and saw her. Beautiful, radiant...my heart was enamored by her and then I quickly began to try to pull myself together with thoughts like.. "Shake yourself out of it man, you're in the church and it's Easter service!" But I was already captivated...my attention continued to be drawn to her. Until finally I wondered if there was more to this than met the eye...especially following my dialogue with the Lord in prayer just moments earlier. I prayed asking for a more direct sign... "Lord, if this woman is for me then let me meet her today." You see it was a very large church and there were many people between us. Further she was on the other side of the Sanctuary. Hardly likely that we would meet yet, I still prayed the prayer. After the service mom was walking with me and she told me that she did not want to walk to the car and to go get the car for her and bring it around to pick her up. As I went I found myself weaving through the mass of people to get to the car. In the midst of my efforts I almost got grazed by a car. I looked up and realized it was her! This was my first sign that she was my wife. We exchanged numbers and went on our first date the the following weekend, and the rest is history! To this day, we celebrate 10 years of marriage at the church where we met and the date we picked is also the date of our first date! Your presence will mean a lot to us and we will love for you to be part of this celebration and create memories together! Please join us on Sunday April 27th, 2025 as well for more fun! Agnela would love to share her tradition with us and celebrate our wedding the African way!
