They married shortly before the pandemic, and during the lockdown, engaged with their church's Pursue Oneness class, a nine-hour skills-based course focusing on conflict resolution, servant leadership, and communication. Their commitment to a small group and engaging in fun-focused events organized by the church’s marriage ministry further strengthened their bond and friendships with other Christ-centered couples.

In the face of Lauren’s battle with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, their faith, learned skills, and support from their church community has been crucial.
