OHIMAI'S STORY ~ How We Met
#OhimaisBlessing
They say love can happen anywhere — at school, at work, even online. Ours? It started at Chapel of Glory, Ajax — on a regular Sunday in March 2024.
She had just moved to Canada, and there she was, new, radiant, and quietly taking in her surroundings. I (being the friendly gentleman I am 😎) welcomed her after the service. That simple act of hospitality was the first chapter of something divine.
We became friends — good friends. We talked, laughed, and shared life every Sunday. As the months went by, I realized I wasn't just enjoying her company… I was falling for her.
By October, after fasting, prayer, and reflection, I knew this wasn't "just friendship" anymore — it was something deeper. So I sent the message on October 22. I wanted to use her birthday as our first date. She said no. 😅 But I wasn't discouraged — she's worth waiting for.
I tried again (and again 😅). Eventually she agreed to a date in November — and that day, everything changed. We laughed, talked, and connected like we had known each other for years.
On December 23, 2024, we made it official. The more I got to know her, the more I knew she was the one — beautiful, intelligent, hardworking, prayerful, and spiritually strong.
Then, on September 6, 2025, at the beautiful Oshawa Botanical Gardens, I got down on one knee and popped the question. She said YES! 💍
From a simple Sunday welcome to a lifetime of love, laughter, and purpose — we can truly say, God writes the best love stories. ❤
