Florence Mirabaye

Florence is Vanessa's long time friend. Florence met Vanessa when they were still college students in Cameroon.  Vanessa and Jason's story is one of these beautiful stories that convince you that love can be real and pure.  She admires their complicity and how naturally their love and respect for one another grows everyday. Like puzzle pieces, Vanessa and Jason complete each other. Florence is really  excited to see their union!

Julie Bwanka

Vanessa and Julie met the first month that Vanessa came to Canada. They soon became close friends as they talked about world views, hair and of course they ate delicious food together. It became evident that Vanessa's genuine passion was to help people through the love of Jesus. At the end of her first year in Canada Jason came into the picture and Vanessa was overwhelmed with joy and homemade gourmet food! Jason and Vanessa merged their giftings together to bring hope to people as they volunteered in soup kitchens. I'm so excited to see how God uses this gentile couple to change the world as they begin their new life together!

Brianna Andrews
Brianna admires Vanessa for her strength and relationship with God, and sees her as a beautiful woman, with amazing values, and a daily growing desire to be a voice for the voiceless. Brianna met Vanessa through her home church and grew to love Vanessa's heart and spirit. Brianna met Jason soon after and very much enjoyed coming over for a hot home-cooked meal! 
Kylah Heffernan

Kylah and Vanessa met last year in their small group where they became friends. Kylah is looking forward to seeing Vanessa on her special day with Jason!

Vanessa's Mom

“I know for certain that we never lose the people we love,  even to death.
They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make.
Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories.
We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.” (By Leo Buscaglia)

Even though you are not here with us today, we know that you're here in our hearts and you smile at us with tender and love. We love you and miss you Mom.

Grandpa Glenn
