Our Story

It was a warm March evening in 2022, and the city of Accra buzzed with life. Raheema and her cousins had decided to spend the night at a popular lounge, a place known for its music and vibrant atmosphere. Those who know Raheema know her love for music. From the moment she stepped inside, the rhythm of the evening seemed to pull her in. The DJ, who is properly known as DJ Filter was positioned confidently at his booth. He had a presence that was impossible to ignore. As the night went on, Raheema found herself gravitating toward the booth. She approached him, her voice soft but sure, and asked if he could play Slow Down by King Promise. He looked at her, a glint of intrigue in his eyes, and smiled. “Anything for you,” he said, and moments later, the smooth, soulful melody filled the room. Raheema stayed close to the booth, vibing with her cousins as the DJ seamlessly played every song she requested. He seemed to know exactly what she needed to hear, and with each track, an unspoken connection began to grow between them. His confidence and energy were magnetic, and she found herself laughing and dancing as if the rest of the lounge had disappeared. When the night began to wind down, Raheema prepared to leave, certain this magical encounter would soon be a memory. But before she could walk away, DJ Filter approached her. With a boldness that caught her off guard, he looked straight into her eyes and said, “You know you’re my soulmate, right?” For a moment, she was speechless, butterflies taking flight in her stomach. A shy smile spread across her face as his words settled over her. There was no hesitation as they exchanged contacts, and though she couldn’t have known it then, their story was just beginning. Nearly three years later, Raheema and Derick stand as proof of a love divinely orchestrated. What began as a chance meeting at a lounge became a beautiful journey marked by faith, connection, and the fulfillment of God’s promises. From that unforgettable night in Accra to the life they now share, their story is a testament to destiny and the beauty of trusting God’s plan.
