How We Got Here!

Wila and Alicia met at Kabwata Baptist Church. Wila was serving in the Media ministry while Alicia served in the campus outreach ministry. We knew each other for a couple years, but never had any deep conversation. Then, Wila was trying to catch up with a mutual friend and Alicia overheard they were going for coffee. If you know Alicia, you know she inserted herself in this meeting. She liked him then, but didn't want to admit it. He liked her then also, but couldn't tell her. A lot of time passed, on and off talking and dates and then finally Wila asks her on THE date! 13th December 2024, Wila asked Alicia to be his girlfriend. We both knew coming into the dating scene that they would and could not date long, although short dating and engagement periods are against the culture. So, Wila had many conversations as he stood firm and knew that Alicia was and is his Bride. 10 months into dating, Wila asked her on their final date as boyfriend and girlfriend. He shocked her in asking to be his wife; she knew it was coming but the way it came was unexpected! On 25th October 2025, around 2030 hours, we were engaged! If you want to know the cute details - text Alicia!
