Our Wedding

Abi and Rafe grew up in Central New York, both attending North Syracuse Baptist church. While they knew each other from youth group on Sunday nights it wasn’t until high-school when they started becoming good friends. On a missions trip in 2017 to the Dominican Republic Abi and Rafe, along with a whole team from NSBC went to share the Word and love of Christ. There they also realized the enjoyment they shared of being together. Abi and Rafe stayed friends throughout the rest of high school, even as Abi and her family moved to western New York to be part of a camp ministry opportunity. The two still became closer over that time, and it became evident that God was working in them both. 	In March of 2020, Rafe and Abi started dating and continued to do so through COVID-19, college, and many long-distance FaceTime calls. On August 31st, Abi came up to Syracuse from Pennsylvania to visit Rafe and was surprised to find Rafe proposing later that evening at Long Branch Park. Excited, Abi obviously said yes! Both Abi and Rafe are excited and looking forward to their wedding day!
