She wasn’t ready, but I was!
We met at a church connect group, but it actually started way before that! Shanice was invited to visit Christ Place while in college, while looking for a new church. Colby was invited to Christ Place by his best man when he really needed faith. A mutual friend, invited Colby to connect group, while Shanice had just recently signed up. They had a few interactions, but nothing really sparked off. Through Facebook they actually became friends and got to know each other on a personal level, but that wasn’t God’s timing and there were things they both needed to grow in. A year later, Colby realized he might have missed an amazing opportunity. Through some mutual connections, Colby's neighbor at the time, invited Shanice and Jordynn to a Fourth of July Block party. That’s what it all began, with a spark. After a few conversations and a” Just go for it!” from his best man, Colby asked Shanice out for froyo! Shanice only had one question, “Do I need a sitter?” Which Colby replied “Yes” and thought to himself “I'm not missing this opportunity again!”
