Our Story
From a Christmas Eve hello to a lifetime together
A love story rooted in faith, family, and a small country church in East Texas.
How we met
Jonathan and Maggie first met at the Christmas Eve service at Mt Vernon Global Methodist Church of Pert — a place filled with memories, family roots, and the steady faith that shaped both of their lives.
What began as a meaningful connection in a familiar place slowly grew into something deeper: long conversations, shared laughter, quiet prayers, and the unmistakable sense that God was weaving their stories together with tenderness and purpose.
Growing together
Their relationship has been built on faith, joy, and a love for simple beautiful things — open skies, family gatherings, heartfelt worship, and the kind of home that welcomes people in.
Now, they are overjoyed to begin this next chapter surrounded by the people they love most.
A Faith-Filled Beginning
“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”
We are so grateful that the same church where we first crossed paths is also the church where we will say I do. We can hardly wait.
