Our story is one of God’s grace, redemption and of course, love. We first met at the gym — “If he thinks I’m cute when I’m sweaty then we’re gonna be allll right.” We were both nervous on our first date, but it felt natural and genuine. Of course there was going to be a second one! Alex knew after the first date Grace was the one. And Grace was right behind him <3. We enjoyed the first few dates which included lots of mountain biking and picnics at the Vulcan. It quickly became clear, this was the person God had for us. In our pasts, we both strayed from following the Lord. After He brought us back to himself, we wondered if there would ever be a Godly spouse. God gave us both such sweet gifts in each other. The time and way our lives connected is a testimony to God’s very amazing plan! Ephesians 2:8-9 explains our deep faith in Jesus for salvation, “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is a gift of God, not a result of works so that no one may boast.” It also captures the deep thankfulness for God’s good gifts to His children — one of the greatest is each other! We’re so excited to start this new chapter with Alex’s son, JR :) We’re holding firm to God’s promises that if this is what He has for us, He will give us everything we need to glorify and enjoy Him through our marriage. Thank you for being a part of the story God is writing through our lives. We love you!
