Our story is truly a testament to the invisible string theory. Living right under each other’s noses but never crossing paths.
We would like to thank you for supporting The Pichler's in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
Elijah and I met right after I left a six-year toxic relationship and fully surrendered my future to God. We connected on a Christian app and quickly realized we shared the same values, upbringing, even the same church background—down to both attending the same school and church all our lives. It felt too aligned to be coincidence. From the start, it was easy, deep, and joy-filled—clearly God-ordained and full of “meant to be” moments that confirmed His perfect timing.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?One of our favorite memories is saying “I love you” just two weeks into dating. We were sitting on a lifeguard tower at night, looking out at the ocean in our hometown. It was peaceful, simple, and perfect—and we both just knew. From that moment on, it’s felt like we’ve been in the honeymoon phase ever since.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use the $20,000 to set up our future for success. We’re hoping to start a family soon and currently don’t have a place to call our own. This prize would help us take steps toward creating a stable, loving home to grow our family and build a future together.
