It was New Year’s Eve 2022, and High Calling Ministries was buzzing with excitement for the Watch Night Service. But little did Marcus and Jayda know, this night would be the beginning of something beautiful, something they’d remember forever. Jayda had actually noticed Marcus a few days earlier, at the Christmas Day service. There he was, standing worshipping in the crowd, wearing a bright yellow hoodie that seemed to glow even in the dim church lights. She couldn’t help but be drawn to him. Curious, she asked a friend who he was—but all she got in return was a mysterious smile and no name. But something inside told her: I need to meet the guy in the yellow hoodie. So she prayed: Lord if He's the one and it's in your will, please let us cross paths again. Fast forward to Watch Night Service, where the church was alive with worship and anticipation for the New Year. As the night went on, Jayda's thoughts kept drifting back to that hoodie, that mystery, and the undeniable pull she felt. Then, right after the ball had dropped and service winded down, fate stepped in. That same friend, who had kept the mystery going, called Marcus over to introduce them. Jayda's heart skipped a beat as the moment she had been waiting for finally arrived. When they started talking, it was as if the entire room disappeared. The New Year celebration, the music, the voices around them—they all faded into the background. It was just the two of them, laughing and sharing stories, getting to know each other as if they'd known each other for years. Time flew by, and before they knew it, the sanctuary was almost empty, but they hadn’t stopped talking once. From that night on, they didn’t just share conversations—they shared their days, their thoughts, their dreams. One night turned into countless others, and somehow, what started as a simple introduction blossomed into something deep, something real. Every day since, Marcus and Jayda have been inseparable. Their connection was undeniable, their bond unbreakable. What started with curiosity over a yellow hoodie had grown into a love they couldn’t have predicted—but one they wouldn’t trade for anything in the world. Now, as they stand together, looking forward to forever, they can’t help but laugh and marvel at how something so simple, like a yellow hoodie, could lead to a love that will last a lifetime. From Watch Night Service to forever, they know that this love was meant to be. And they wouldn’t have it any other way.
