We started going to Faith Community Church in May. We have been every Sunday since we went the first time to this church. The pastor, Pastor Jeff, reminds me of my pastor from home. We have hymnals, and the Lord's prayer, and communion so it is more traditional than my church I grew up in which I like.
We picked our wedding day without talking to our pastor, but since we picked it about a year in advance, we prayed if he couldn't do it, someone from FCC would.
On Sunday when we were leaving service and giving hugs Pastor Jeff stopped us and told us a parishioner told him we were engaged. He told us "I want to be the one to marry you two! Can you come in to the office sometime this week to pick a date?". I felt awful telling him we already had a date. (In my head I also knew it was a Sunday and may be difficult for a Senior Pastor to get away from the congregation on a Sunday morning). He told us to write down the date and he would look at his schedule and email us this week about his availability.
He emailed us yesterday and he is available our wedding day!
One of amazing things about this is that we honestly didn't have to do any work for once. So far with wedding dress shopping and buying, save the dates being sent out, the venue being book and flower shows, we have coordinated almost everything. It was nice having our Pastor stop us while we were leaving church to tell us he wanted to be a part of our wedding.
With our spiritual selves growing upward and onward, we pray to have a healthy and happy marriage.
Having faith was the best for us.
