This is our heart! You see, for us the math is easy, one+one+one=one this means that Paul, Lourdes, & the Holy Spirit are coming together to make one new unit that reflects the relationship that Christ has with His Church (AKA the bride of Christ). We believe deeply that what the Lord has brought together, so let no man take us apart. We are performing a covenant on June 2nd and that is till death do us part. So we ask that you, as our family, admonish us towards this and celebrate with us in our union!
It would be a long 6 months after our friends Stephen & Ruby introduced us before we met again in the parking lot of Courts of Praise. I was really taken by her! She was so beautiful and the way she talked about her love for the Lord & her calling, I had to know more. After asking her out we quickly got to know one another and watched the hand of God bring both of us together. We can both say confidently that God really leads you when you ask Him to.
Exactly one year to the day after we met, with the blessing of her family, I asked Lu to be my bride! She played nice, but she knew that our photography session at the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens was going to culminate in a grand question! To which she said YES!
Little did we know that our plans for a June 2nd, 2020 marriage celebration were about to be rudely interrupted! The real threat was that the courthouses were all just about to go into quarantine and if we didn't act fast we wouldn't have been able to get married before Lu's visa ran out. Now, the threat of loosing Lu was real, we prayed, sought council with our parents and decided to tie the knot with 7 of our closest friends on March 24th, 2020 in spite of all of the odds facing us! And now, were glad to say that God has opened the doors for our friends and family to come together on January 24th, 2021 to celebrate an already flourishing marriage!
