Ariya and Eliot met at Word of life Bible Institute,where they related to each other through music, night walks, picnics, jumping into lakes, and many many Bible studies. where a sweet friendship, and a deep devotion for God, evolved into a deep love for each other. From climbing trees, to sharing testimonies, fighting through long distance, to moving across state lines for each other, their love for Christ, and each other, grew all the more, in the midst of sacrifice and hard conversations.
