Jamil and Tatiana met on August 30th of 2016. Jamil had decided to go to Bahama Bucks with his friends after a long worship rehearsal practice for Sagebrush Church. Tatiana happened to be working a shift that night when he stopped by and they immediately recognized each other from the Young Adults ministry known as Rise, that they both had been attending. However at that time, they were in different stages of their lives and the timing wasn't right especially since they were not looking for a relationship. They reconnected later that year when their friend groups unexpectedly combined to form one large friend group. Opportunities to hangout became more frequent and the two became friends. What Tatiana didn't know was that Jamil had known for awhile that he wanted to ask her to be his girlfriend but he waited till he could plan the "perfect date" to ask her out. He knew Tatiana had never had a boyfriend before so he wanted to make sure he asked her in a special way. Jamil felt that God had brought the two of them together for a reason. On December 13th, Jamil took Tatiana to the River of lights and asked her to be his girlfriend. As for the rest of their story, as you already know, it is still being written.
