Our Wedding

Once upon a time....or well twice. A young man on Halloween night, 2020, swiped right on a young woman on Bumble, much how everyone in their generation had done before. As you know, on Bumble, the lady must message the gentleman first within 24 hours, but our BUSY young woman did not initiate contact with the gentleman. He thought the girl of his dreams was out of reach. The young man then decided to scroll on Facebook for the 4,000th time that evening, when he saw a notification to set up his Facebook Dating profile. The young man had seen this notification for quite some time, and this particular evening, he said to himself, "You know what, I'm tired of this stupid notification! I'm just going to go ahead and fill it out already!" The young man quickly filled out the monotonous questionnaire and to his reward, the first profile was that of our young heroine! He then knew that God was trying to tell him something, of which he would not yet understand until much later. And as every fairy tale says, "The rest is history."

Swipe Right....Twice

My best man is one of my best friends, Micah Mehl. Meeting my senior year in college, we were the Tenor 1's of the ETSU Swashbucklers, our colleges premier male a cappella group. Micah and I have shared many laughs, and shared many tears. I am pleased to call him a dear friend and brother in Christ.

Every child's journey in kindergarten is scary, unless you have a partner in crime. Amos was my first friend, and still continues to be a dear friend. I am thankful to have him as a Brother in Christ, and constant encouragement.
