Jordan and Monet’s story

On January 2, 2024, Monet attended Journey Young Adults with a friend. While she was there, she spotted another friend, Ben Soyster, and went over to say hello. Ben introduced her to Jordan. At the time, she had no idea that five months later, on a random Tuesday, he would reach out. On June 18 at 6:21 a.m., Jordan sent Monet a simple Instagram message: “Hey!!! Hru!?” She replied, “Good, hru?” and from that moment, something just clicked. They texted all day and decided to meet up that evening at Alpenglow Park. What started as an easy conversation turned into hours of talking, followed by days of constant texting and spending time together. That Friday, they went to a movie, grabbed dinner, and ended the night at Drake Park. Sitting on a blanket and talking, Monet mentioned that they were not technically dating yet. After a brief pause, Jordan asked, “Monet?” She replied, “Yeah?” Jordan then said, “Will you be my girlfriend?” and she said yes. From that moment on, they have walked through life together, sharing both challenges and joyful adventures. What began with a simple message has, a year and a half later, led them here: engaged and preparing for marriage.
