Andrew responded to an ad at their church about needing help at the Ganci house. A week later bright and early at 2 in the afternoon, Jessica rolled out of bed cranky as ever and asked him to keep it down while he was hammering something in the other room. In that moment God told Andrew, she would be his wife. After a beautiful, God ordained, very patient courtship that built an amazing friendship over the next several months; Jessica began to pray if Andrew was to be her husband. Faithfully God answered with a big YES! He knew meshing these two souls together would point each of them to Him in a new way that would lead to a lifetime of glorifying His Name.
Like any normal Saturday, the two went to ministry in the morning and then out to the barn to ride. Upon arrival Andrew stopped at the feed barn saying there was a gift left for them. There was two bibles with a sweet note "from" friends Terry and Julie with bible verses for each of them to read. Jessica read hers first, 1 Peter 4:7-10. Andrew opened his bible up to the verse written on the note, but instead of reading Proverbs 19:14 he began to tell Jessica that he loved her and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. Andrew then proceeded to get on one knee and turned the bible towards her so she could see the beautiful ring tied up in the bible ribbon. Jessica said YES! Then they rode horses and enjoyed the rest of the beautiful afternoon before the surprises continued later that night with a wonderful engagement party planned for the two of them to celebrate!
