We met our sophomore year at Franciscan University during Resident Assistant Training in the fall, since we were both hired to be RAs. Gus slyly got Sarah's number, but Sarah got put in quarantine with COVID. Sarah impatiently waited for Gus to ask her out. A few days after getting out of quarantine, Gus asked Sarah, at 2 in the morning, on their first date. 3 dates later, and we were dating! After fall & spring of our sophomore years, we were long distance for a summer (Sarah got to go visit the Free home in MA) and then so happy to be back on campus together for Junior year. We even got to go to Austria, for our spring semester abroad, together and traveled all across Europe. After another long distance summer, Gus came to visit Sarah in NC and asked for her dad's blessing. Finally, after half a semester of painting her nails twice a week in nervous anticipation, Sarah was overjoyed that Gus proposed during a fall break visit to NC. Sarah, of course, said yes...cutting him off before he even finished proposing! We are so excited to be getting married to pursue life and Heaven together! Please pray for us, especially through the intercessions of Our Lady Undoer of Knots, St. Joseph the Pillar of Families, and St. Thomas More (whose feast day we will be married on), as we prepare for the Sacrament of Marriage!
