How did your love story begin?

2021, David took a leap of faith, inviting Cynethia on their first date—a full day of fun like no other! Blossoming a love, a beacon of resilience, weathering the storms of life with unwavering devotion. Through the trials of a global pandemic and the somber echoes of loss, including Cynethia’s mama, Cynthia, who thankfully was able to meet David before passing, they found solace in each other, their bond fortified by the gentle rhythm of shared laughter and faithfulness in God.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our dating anniversary trip to Toronto. It was our first overnight trip and to maintain our purity in our Christian relationship we decided we wouldn’t spend the night together before marriage. So it was such a beautiful adventure together staying with our church families and exploring what Canada had to offer! It was also David’s first time back since he left at the age of 10. So getting see where he grew up was amazing! We even went to his old preschool and met his teachers!

What would you do with $20,000?

As newlyweds and homeowners, we would use the money to renovate and cultivate our beautiful home. Creating a sweet beacon to share with others! “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬
