Andria and her family attended Hawthorne Gospel Church. After the service was over Natalie got to meet Andria’s mom and dad, and her 2 brothers Matt and Gabe. While talking with Andria’s mom, Gabe stood shy behind her. Later that evening Gabe attended youth group and after youth group is when Natalie and Gabe started talking more.

After months of talking and growing a friendship together, Natalie and Gabe started to date. Sadly after around a month and a half of dating Natalie decided to part ways with Gabe.

Throughout this entire span of time, a lot happened. Many tears were shed, arguments happened left and right, and also some reconciliation at parts. Even through all of the mess that occurred, Gabe continued to have feelings for Natalie, and eventually decided to start pursuing her at the end of the summer in 2018.

This day started as a normal hangout for Natalie and Gabe, but then turned into Gabe asking Natalie to be his girlfriend. The two decided to take it seriously this time and let God lead in every step. Through so many ups and downs and everything in between God has been the glue that has kept them together and has been the road to lead them to where they are now!
