Wedding Party
Joanna Miranda
Bride
Joanna Rebeka Miranda was born and raised in Buford, Georgia and is 24 years old. She is a recent graduate of Bible school, carrying a deep passion and clear calling for evangelism and sharing the love of Jesus wherever she goes. Joanna is known for her vibrant personality, soft heart, and love for beauty in both life and ministry. Her favorite color is pink, and her favorite food is a perfectly cooked steak. In her free time, she enjoys going on runs, nature walks, and taking in the peace of creation—especially when flowers are involved, one of her absolute favorite things in the world. She is very much a beach-over-mountains girl, always drawn to the ocean and the calm it brings. Joanna also enjoys doing her makeup and streaming, her life reflects a balance of joy, purpose, and passion for both people and God’s presence.
Abraham Ankamah
Groom
Abraham Lincoln Ankamah is from Kumasi, Ghana, and moved to the United States to pursue his studies at Oral Roberts University and later Rhema Bible Training College. He carries a strong sense of purpose, discipline, and excellence in everything he does, both in life and in ministry. Known for his sharp sense of style, Abraham takes his dressing seriously—his signature favorite look being a double-breasted three-piece suit. He has a natural attention to detail and presence that reflects his personality well beyond just fashion. One of his favorite drinks is a Golden Eagle from Dutch Bros made with white coffee, and when it comes to food, nothing beats a perfectly cooked medium-rare steak with sweet potato fries. Among his most “prized possessions” are his well-kept beard and his second bedroom, which he proudly converted into a spacious walk-in closet. Abraham is intentional, driven, and deeply grounded in faith, and he brings strength, humor, and steadiness into every room he enters.
Zoe Du Val
Maid of Honor
Zoe, my Maid of Honor, is truly a gift from God in my life. We met in Zambia on a crusade trip, and from that moment on, we’ve been inseparable. Though she’s from the UK and now serves as the Media Director for The River Church in the Netherlands, distance has never changed the depth of our friendship. She is like a sister to me—someone I can laugh with, pray with, and grow with in every season. Zoe is wise beyond her years, always offering godly counsel and perspective, and she shares the same heart and calling for ministry that I do. Being so equally yoked, we’ve walked side by side in purpose, and I’m endlessly grateful to have her standing with me on this special day.
Wisdom Dafeamekpo
Best Man
Wisdom is more than a friend—he is truly a brother. We met at Rhema and quickly formed a bond that has carried through seasons of life, ministry, and growth. Often mistaken for lookalikes during our school days, our connection only deepened as we walked through ministry together and consistently supported one another. Wisdom now serves alongside his wife, LaMyra, as pastors at Grace Chapel International in Accra, Ghana. Together, they are raising their two children, Heaven and Makari, while faithfully leading and serving their community. Having him stand as my Best man is an honor rooted in brotherhood, shared purpose, and enduring friendship.
Trinity Nguyen
Bridesmaid
Trinity, my bridesmaid, has been one of my greatest joys since we met in 2021 during my time signed to a record label in Atlanta. From the very beginning, we clicked instantly—truly like two peas in a pod. Our friendship is filled with nonstop laughter, endless inside jokes, and memes that only we understand, constantly bouncing them back and forth like it’s our own language. She’s my go-to karaoke partner and someone who can turn any moment into a memory. Trinity is the sister I never had, and I’m so grateful to have her standing by my side on such a special day.
Joseph Gigunito
Groomsman
I met Joseph at ORU, and he was the very first friend I made when I came to America. From that moment on, we’ve stayed close, and he’s someone who truly knows my story better than almost anyone else. I used to jokingly call him my “gangster preacher” because of his tattoos, but behind that is one of the most genuine and compassionate hearts I know. He’s more than a friend—he’s a true brother—and I’m grateful to have him standing with me as a groomsman on this special day.
Skye Melendez
Bridesmaid
Skye, my bridesmaid, is my Bible school best friend and one of the sweetest gifts from that season of my life. From every class, midterm, and final, we’ve always been side by side studying, encouraging each other, and pushing through together. Outside of class, we’ve made the best memories—going out for sweet treats and coffee runs, and watching movies. We can pray together in one moment and be planning a cute brunch or dinner the next. Skye has such a genuine heart for worship and is truly a giver in every sense of the word. I’m so thankful for her friendship and even more grateful to have her standing with me on my wedding day.
Danny Eapen
Groomsman
I met Danny at Rhema, and our friendship continued as we both attended ORU and Rhema together. Over time, we built a strong bond through school, faith, and shared experiences that shaped a lot of our journey. Danny serves in the Army Reserve, something that speaks to his discipline and commitment to service. Beyond that, we’ve always shared a love for soccer, and he is a devoted Real Madrid fan—something we’ve definitely had plenty of friendly conversations about over the years. In his walk with God, Danny deeply admires Brother Kenneth E. Hagin, whose teachings have played an important role in his faith. I’m grateful for his friendship and honored to have him stand with me as a groomsman.
Emily Prado
Bridesmaid
Emily, my bridesmaid, is someone I met during a camp meeting at my home church in Georgia, and we instantly connected through a shared love for God’s presence. She has been my revival buddy ever since—traveling together to different meetings, worship nights, and moments of ministry that have deeply shaped my life. Emily is a worship leader with the sweetest heart, carrying both humility and fire for God in everything she does. She is incredibly generous and not only speaks life over the call on my life, but actively supports it through her actions. In our church circles, we’re so often mistaken for each other that people regularly call her me and me her. That alone says everything about how close our bond is. I’m so grateful to have her standing with me on this journey.
