Before they connected on Christian Connection neither Ana or Nathan was looking for a long-distance relationship. But after making contact, Amolatina Success Stories they both felt the other was worth pursuing – and their lives changed forever! Here’s their story…

“The search was on”

Ana: Long before I met my husband, God had given me a vision that my future husband’s name would be Nathan. From then, the search was on for “The Nathan”.

Nathan: After swearing off online dating for a significant time, I found myself buying a six-month subscription to Christian Connection, determined that if there still wasn’t someone in my life after those six months, I wouldn’t worry about dating, or relationships of Amolatina Success Stories that nature, until I finished my studies.

“Then someone contacted me…”

I found many friendly women, but none Amolatina Success Stories  where I felt there was a connection. Then someone contacted me…

Ana: I found out that Nathan lived interstate and my heart sank. “Not another long-distance relationship”, I thought. But there was Amolatina Success Stories  something about this God-fearing man that gave me enough peace to keep the conversation going.

Ana: To my surprise (or, in God’s willing), Amolatina Success Stories. When we met up in person we hit it off straight away.
