I love you Favi!Posted by: David and Favi Velasquez on Feb 28, 2011 |

I still remember the first day that I saw her. I was 19 years old and I had gone down to Peru to prepare for the ministry. My Mom had been messing with me right before my departure. She said, "I bet you will find your future wife in Peru!" Of course, I was very "spiritual" I told her, "I am going to Peru to serve God and learn more about missions, and plus, all Peruvian women are ugly" (I can't believe I said that). Guess what, God had a wonderful plan for me. My first day in Peru, we went to a youth meeting and there she was. In that moment I took everything back that I had said about Peruvian women. You know what happened? I don't know how to explain it. The first moment that I laid eyes on her, it was as if I heard a small voice in my head, "you are going to marry that girl." It wasn't love at first sight but I knew that she would be my wife. I went to Peru without any intention to fall in love or marry but God brought her to me. I have known Favi for 7 years now and we are celebrating our 5 year anniversary tomorrow. I love you baby! Marrying you was the best thing (after my salvation) that could have ever happened to me.
