Maid of Honor
Faith and I met way back in 2007 during our freshmen year of high school and little did I know that it would be the start of a 14 year long friendship. Throughout high school, we would get in trouble during Spanish class for talking and laughing too much and had way too many inside jokes. We considered each other's homes as our second homes and had so many meaningful conversations during random drives and movie nights. Our pretty much co-dependent friendship continued into college where we would take turns riding that scary bus for 7 hours from Ithaca to Philadelphia just so we could see each other. Only for one year out of 12 have we lived in non-bordering states and I’m hoping it stays that way. Faith, I wish you and Jobin all the happiness and a long and prosperous marriage.
Best Man
Jobin and I first met freshman year of college. After being introduced by friends, Jobin was interested in coming out to a Sunday service at Renewal Church. Little did we know from this small exchange, we would be neighbors and housemates for the next seven years, growing a deep-rooted friendship in Jesus. One of my memories of Jobin is related to his deep-rooted character. While serving overseas, I remember an incident where I felt like my life was crumbling. Jobin said, “I just want to come over there and give you a hug.” Despite Jobin’s stoic exterior, he has demonstrated immense trust being “a friend [who] loves at all times, and a brother [who] is born for adversity.” You got time. You have days, months, years, decades to exercise unconditional love and to know each other deeply.

I can't believe how quickly time has flown by, but it's already been 10 years since I first met Faith during our freshman year of college through RCF. We grew closer through attending small group together, rooming together, serving together, and just living life together! After years of watching Jobin & Faith grow closer as friends and eventually more, I have to say I think there is no better fit for either of them! I've seen how they care for each other and love each other so genuinely and am so encouraged by their love. I pray they will continue to lift each other up and sharpen each other as their love deepens & matures through marriage. And I hope they will continue to live for & glorify God the most as they get a glimpse of His love through their faithful commitment to each other.

We met in our first year of college but I think our friendship really started second year when we moved into Osol with the guys. We lived near each other throughout school, and our days and nights hanging out on May Street were the best times. Loved being able to come over and just walk into your apartment and talk about anything. Jobin and Faith, I know God’s going to stretch and grow you both in His grace. Praying that you’ll both magnify Christ’s love towards each other and those in your communities.

Faith and I met in college. I can’t remember the exact day we met, but I remember her coming home with me during Labor Day weekend, only a week into school. Since then, she has become an extended part of my family and a constant buddy throughout school and life. One of my most memorable moments with Faith was in the last year of school when we partnered up for our immunization certification. She knew my fear of needles and the possibility of me fainting, but still stuck with me. Both of us got through it fine. Ironically, it was Jobin that fainted for a few seconds that day. I have known Faith and Jobin since the first year of school and I am excited that they are finally getting married. May you continue to bring the best out of each other and create more wonderful memories together.

I met Jobin in college where we trained to become highly professional legal drug dealers. We built our friendship through his signature banana bread, late night May Street all-in-one (purifying, glow-getter, anti-wrinkle, hydrating, detoxifying, renewing, organic, BPA-free packaging) face mask sessions and love for the Korean culture (where at times I would learn something new). One of my favorite memories with Jobin is our trip to Korea. We explored, ate amazing street food, and drank traditional korean rice wine Makgeolli. I am grateful for your friendship and am truly excited for your next chapter in life. Congratulations Jobin and dont mess it up 😉

Faith and I met in college/RCF in fall of 2011. She was a freshman at the time and I was a senior. In summer of 2012, we went on our first international mission trip to Taiwan. Over the years, Faith and I have shared a lot of memories together including being in an accountability group together, and spending quality time over food and bubble tea. One of my favorite memories with Faith was going to my first ever aquarium experience with our accountability group. Praying your marriage and home will be a place filled with love and laughter to one another and for others to shine Christ utmost in your lives. It's been a hard year in many ways, but even then I see so much of God's grace over your relationship.

I met Jobin, well, I guess whenever he first saw me after I was born. My favorite memory of us has to be the times growing up when dad would bring us to the park to ride bikes, and when we would try to play baseball. You loved pitching, especially really fast, and I guess you didn’t get that hand-eye coordination down back then because you would wind up hitting me more times in the face than the strike zone… Jobin, I’m proud to see you flourish consistently in life, in the kingdom of God, and now you are able to share that with a beautiful, loving companion. Faith, I’ve always wanted a sister and there’s nobody else who would make a perfect fit into our family better than you.
