So... it all started when I decided to take a job at LabCorp Drug Development and moved to Madison, Wisconsin. My goal was to live my single happy life with my new job in a new city with my plants. I have been on many dates in Iowa City and Madison and decided that men these days just were not what I needed. I was finally moving on with my adult life and I was very excited to see what was next in my scientific industry life.-- Aimee

We all know America is the place where all big dreams becomes reality. When l decided to move from Tanzania to DC and later to Wisconsin, my thought was to make a successful career and start a family with an America wife. The problem was that none of the women I went on dates with could meet my expectations for a wife. During this struggling time in my life, I was invited to go for marriage and single conference. I went to the conference so I could learn some tips for being a good husband and father. That same day I brought a painting that said " Praying until something happen'. I kept that painting in my apartment and continue pray for future wife. --Pius

Before I could move on with my single happy life I had to finish going on the dates I had set up. The only person I had left to go on a date with was Pius. I said before the date that this would be my last. I planned a morning date on a Thursday before work, so if it went poorly, I could leave. My plan was to make it a quick easy date and move on with my life. However, God had other plans for me. I ended up being late to work because I couldn't stop talking to him. He was the kindest and sweetest man I had every met. Talking to him felt like I had always known him. I called my sister Molli on my way back to work and said "I think I just met my husband?!" -- Aimee

Around May 2023, I put less time into dating so I could focus on my business. I matched with Aimee and started talking to her for three weeks. On Jun 1, she set me up for morning date (kind of weird for me like why morning?) and I had to agree because she was too cute to say no and I needed to meet her. We went to Starbucks for coffee, this girl was so pretty I dropped my coffee all over the patio (wasn't mad about the coffee because back in the day black people didn't even drink coffee lol). Meeting Aimee is the best thing in my world, she is so pretty, smart, has a great sense of humor, and a great personality. Talking to her felt so natural and I found out she was going to the same church I was in Madison. After that date, I went home and felt like I ruined the date because I dropped the coffee in front for her and we all know how much white people like their coffee! And here we are getting married!-- Pius

Since meeting Pius God has shown me that His plans are greater than mine. I have always know that conceptually but never felt it in my heart. Taking my new job and moving to Wisconsin was not my choice, but it was where God sent me. I had no idea how beautiful WI was but it is now my new favorite state to live in (don't tell my dad)! Going on that last date with Pius was not something I wanted to do (not because he didn't seem great but because I wanted to live my happy single life how I wanted) but God knew I needed him to complete me and make me the woman I am today. I am so thankful that God lead me according to his plans and helped me follow Him even when His plans didn't make sense to me. This experience with moving to WI and meeting Pius has taught me that God knows me better than I know myself and that we should trust his ways more than our own. --Aimee

With all that being said... we are excited to get married! God has blessed us so much and we can't wait to be Mr. and Mrs. Kanemba ❤️
