The dream of Mina Johnbull to walk down the aisle some day and say “I do” to her hubby came to fruition last Saturday, April 25, 2021, at the Winners Chapel, Amadi in Port Harcourt City Local Government Area of Rivers State. It was indeed double blessings as the joyous event came amidst the dedication of their son, Master Frankly Tamunoemi Franklyn Itelima to God for fulfilling His word in the life of the couple who waited patiently to be blessed.
Speaking at the solemnization of holy matrimony, the officiating minister, Pastor Raphael Victory charged the couple to jealously guide their marriage against destruction.
Pastor Victory admonished the couple to see themselves as one, anchoring on their love that brought them together and not to let the passion for each other deplete.
The clergyman said marriage is supposed to be enjoyed and not to be endured, urging the couple to tolerate each other and draw from each other’s strength and not take advantage of each other’s weaknesses.
He urged the couple to discharge their parental responsibilities to train up their children in the way of the Lord, so that when the children grow up they would not depart from the path.
Expressing his joy for the marriage consummation, the bridegroom said he first saw the picture of his spouse without meeting her and thanked God for giving him such a woman that cherishes him so much and promised never to let her down.
Mina on her part, expressed joy and happiness to God for His grace and favour, noting that she was not better than those whose story in the journey of looking for the fruit of the womb went soar, saying she was optimistic that a day like this would come because she was focused and surrendered her problems to God in prayers.
She advised those that are yet to have their own husband to be steadfast, focused and believe that a day would come when God would show himself no matter how long it tarries.
She said that courtship is ideal for couples, because it creates room for understanding between friends and enables both to study and cherish each other. She thanked her friends and supporters for making the event a huge success.
