How We Met

First comes Field Ministry, then comes Love, then comes Marriage

We met at the Hollywood French congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. I love hospitality so I invited him over for dinner with friends, he hardly spoke. I thought our Afro-beats, playing games loudly and our expressive French, African, and Haitian culture shocked the quiet Quebequoi. A few weeks later, I went out in the field ministry and my friend Allain asked me to join his group, Sylvain was there. For some reason Sylvain was usually part of my group, quiet, but there smiling. One day he opened up and really talked to me. "Why am I telling you all this?" he asked. "I don't know, maybe you feel comfortable with me" I replied smiling :) A week later, at my friend's baby shower, Sylvain walked in, came straight to me, kissed me on the cheek and said "You are the most beautiful girl here!" then walked away! We were inseparable the whole night. Before we parted he said "I want us to date, what do you think?" (Man of few words). "I'll think about it" I said. The next day, at the Kingdom Hall, I said "Remember that question you asked me yesterday? Well, I thought and prayed about it, so yes". He gave me a big hug and kissed me on the cheek. On March 27, 2020 while watching a beautiful sunset in Naples Florida, he proposed, I said yes!

For all the days along the way
