It all began in the heart of Hokie Nation — Virginia Tech — where two unsuspecting college students kept crossing paths. Whether it was through CCF’s outreach team, vtONE, or sitting in the pews at Providence Presbyterian Church, we found ourselves constantly serving side-by-side. Somewhere between setting up events and sharing late-night conversations with each other and with friends, a deeper connection quietly began to grow. Now, it did take Mason a little time (and probably a pep talk or two) to finally ask Rebekah out. But when he did, their first date turned into a whole-day adventure — just the two of us at times, and then with the sweet friends who had walked with us through every chapter. It felt like something special... and it was. Since then, Rebekah has grown a deep affection for Mason’s drive, his dependability, and the way he dreams big — all while staying grounded and true to his word. On the other hand, Mason finds himself continuously drawn to Rebekah’s patience, her kind heart, and her delightfully quirky sense of humor (which still catches him off guard in the best way). She keeps life interesting and introduces him to worlds he never would’ve known. Fast forward to a sunny day in Blacksburg, where Mason brought Rebekah back to the place where it all began — Providence Presbyterian Church — and asked her the most important question of all. Spoiler alert: she said yes. We're so excited to start this next chapter, and we’re even more thrilled to celebrate it with you!
