Noelle and Ethan met in August of 2022 at their university's orientation retreat, not knowing that God was beginning to write one of their greatest stories yet. Drawn in by Ethan’s quiet strength and kind smile, Noelle felt an instant connection—one that only deepened as they spent time together. Through long conversations, group hangouts, and coffee “dates,” they discovered a shared love for faith, family, and the little things that make life beautiful. As they grew closer, it became clear that God had been gently guiding their paths toward one another all along. On Valentine’s Day of 2023, Ethan asked Noelle to be his girlfriend, marking the beginning of a new chapter that felt full of purpose and peace. Since then, their relationship has been built on love, trust, and a shared desire to keep Christ at the center of everything they do. They’ve prayed through decisions, encouraged each other through challenges, and celebrated countless moments of joy—always giving glory to the One who brought them together. Now, with grateful hearts and unwavering faith, they’re stepping into marriage, believing that the same God who brought them together will continue to lead them in love, every step of the way.
