Last Thanksgiving, I got the random urge to join ChristianMingle despite the fact I was pretty skeptical of online dating. I was tired of dating just to date, so I thought that I might as well give the website a shot. That night, I asked God to give me the man I was supposed to marry, via ChristianMingle.

My friends and family thought it was strange and I honestly thought it was going to take me months and months to find him. Two days after joining, on November 27, 2011, Justin contacted me. We met on December 2nd, and although I had the worst pasta ever on our first date, he amused me enough to go on a second. It didn’t take long for me to realize he fit every single oddly specific item I had on my unwritten checklist! I told everyone after only a couple of months that I was going to marry him, no matter how crazy it sounded. He was perfect for me, and there is no way we would have ever found each other if God hadn’t brought us together through ChristianMingle. On September 15, 2012 on the beach at sunset, he proposed and I said yes!

Our wedding is set for July 20, 2013 and I could not be happier! I feel so lucky and so blessed to have him in my life forever. Thank you, ChristianMingle!
