Two Hearts, One Covenant, United for His glory.
From different corners of the world, Yai, born in Juba, South Sudan, and Areyanna, raised in Kansas City, Missouri, were destined to meet. Despite the distance and cultural differences, God's plan brought us together in Dallas, Texas, where our journey began. Overtime we realized our shared purpose: to honor God, love deeply, and serve each other faithfully. God led us to the moment we would unite in covenant, not just with each other, but with Him. After years four years and forever more to go of laughter, prayers, and growth, we stand together, two souls bound by His love. On June 14th, 2025, we will celebrate our love and God's faithfulness, as we begin a life together in marriage, filled with love, joy, and gratitude for His plan.
