Welcome!

We are so grateful that you’re here to celebrate this unforgettable chapter of our lives.

By God’s grace, our paths crossed, our friendship grew, and our love became part of His perfect plan. Today, we joyfully prepare to begin a new journey together as husband and wife, trusting that Christ will always remain at the center of our marriage.

This celebration is more than a wedding—it is a testimony of God’s faithfulness, love, and purpose. Having you with us makes this day even more meaningful, and we are truly thankful that you are part of our story.

Thank you for your love, prayers, and support. We look forward to celebrating with you and creating beautiful memories together.

With love and gratitude,

Mercia & Arnaldo

Every love story is unique, and ours is a beautiful reminder that God works in His perfect time.

Long before we knew what the future held, our paths crossed several times. I first noticed her at a bus stop while I was with a friend. Later, I saw her again through another friend who happened to be her classmate. We even crossed paths at school, yet we remained strangers, unaware that God was quietly preparing our hearts for something special.

The first time I finally gathered the courage to speak to her was at work. Our conversation didn't begin the way I had imagined. She honestly told me that she wasn't interested in Africans. Though it was discouraging, I respected her honesty and trusted that if our paths were meant to come together, they would.

Not long afterward, God gave us another opportunity. I invited her to a conference at my church, JARME. She accepted the invitation, and what seemed like a simple invitation became the beginning of something extraordinary. Through shared conversations, laughter, friendship, and our growing faith, we discovered that God had been writing our story all along.

What began with chance encounters became a journey of love, trust, and God's unfailing grace. Today, we stand together, grateful for every step that brought us here. We believe our love is a testimony that God's plans are always greater than our own, and His timing is always perfect.

With thankful hearts, we invite you to celebrate the beginning of our next chapter as we join our lives together in love and before God.

We are so excited to celebrate our special day with you!
