Immediately after the Divine Liturgy, I usually put out the candles on the Iconostasis. However, another altar server took care of the candles. Father started "Give thanks to the Lord" which is a hymn we sing after Divine Lutrgy. This was perfect because my girlfriend helps sing with the cantors.

I went to the Icon of Christ and motioned for her to come of. Unfrotunately, we had been having trouble with the microphones today, so she thought I was motioning for her to fix the microphone she was using. Lol!

I motioned again and said kinda of quiet (cuze we were in church) "Come over here." Then, when she came over (kinda looking concerned and confused, lol) I said "You are the only woman for me." I got down on one knee and said, "Will you marry me?"

She said yes, but I thought she might pass out or cry. Lol. She was estatic.

Proposing in the Church is specifically special for me because we met in Church.[/quote]

my hubby and i were just discussing his friend who says that all the women he dates seem to all be the same. i'm like "duh, that's because you met them in a BAR! Hello!"

i told my hubby that he needs to tell his friend to go to church to meet a good woman. :hehe:
