How We Met

A Prayer, A Facebook Status, and A Phone Conversation

Keith and Candace both were seeking God for their next step in life. Keith was hustling starting his business and just got his first check! Everything he was working hard for was all happening. Candace was ready for a new life....to be with the man who would be her partner in divine purpose. They have a mutual friend named Nicole who just recently connected with Keith about his next chapter in life and she encouraged him to start dating again. Keith wasn't having it. But Nicole, being the bold & loving friend she is, decided to start the process. She posted a Facebook status which stated along the lines of, "I have a great friend, he's 6'5'', loves Jesus, and is dating to marry. I just need to know which one of my friends are single." This particular day, Candace felt led to put herself out there having just prayed for her partner to come into her life the day before. After a few message exchanges and sending of profiles, Keith shared that he was interested and Nicole shared her phone number. They talked that evening on Friday, June 15, 2018 and had a special feeling about each other. Six months later they were engaged! And now a new life together begins....

The Proposal

The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Keith is very non-traditional so during the Christmas holiday, he wasn't a fan of waiting to put some fancy gift-wrapped presents under the tree. He sent Candace gifts in the mail several weeks before the official holiday and he expressed his sentiments to just go ahead and open them as they arrive. One particular day after Candace finished her last official business day of the year, Keith mentioned that he had another gift arriving that evening via Amazon. Candace didn't have much to do that night so she patiently waited at home for the next gift to arrive. A few hours later, Keith calls and says the gift is finally here! It was HIM! He had flew in early from Los Angeles to started the holiday with his beloved. Well, what Candace didn't know was that night Keith had secretly taken her family out to dinner to ask for her hand in marriage. He was planning to pop the question on New Years Eve, but couldn't stand to wait much longer. On Christmas Eve during an intimate moment reflecting on the miracle it was for the couple being introduced to each other and finding their soulmate in one another, Keith got up and went in his bag where he was hiding the ring the entire time. He then exclaimed, "Candace will you marry me?"......It was a huge surprise but of course, Candace said YES!
