We went to the same high school, but we never spoke. In fact, Ryan would try to hide when she saw Danny walking down the hallway because she was too nervous to say hi. A couple years after high school, Ryan sent Danny a random direct message. Danny took the opportunity and asked her to go on a hike and the rest is history!
Danny and Ryan have recently started a photography and videography business together. Danny had someone send a fake email to Ryan asking her if she would take engagement photos of them. Little did she know that this was actually HER engagement session. Ryan showed up and there it was: a tree covered in pictures of her and Danny, a blanket with candles and lights, and then Danny on one knee with a ring in his hand. It was the sweetest day.
We seek to love each other in the same way that Jesus Christ showed His love for us... through serving. In Mark 10:45, it says "for even the Son of Man (Jesus) did not come to be served, but instead to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Love is action. It's sacrifice and it's servanthood. We believe that if we love Christ first and grow in our knowledge of who He is, then we can better love each other second.
