Story

Melbourne was a strange and lonely time for Kevin as he just arrived to start his university journey. Little did he know that he would go back home with more than just a degree. Elyssa was in Melbourne earlier pursuing her degree at the same school, where they met.

Kevin was searching for an on-campus christian group when he met the campus chaplain Pete who gave Kevin's contact number to Elyssa. That mean't that Elyssa was Kevin's first friend in Melbourne :) aww so sweet, and this was the start of something new.

Kevin and Elyssa continued to build each other up in Christ and grew in the friendship. Elyssa was scheduled to head home to Singapore for the holidays when she found out that Kevin's 21st birthday was coming up and that he was going to sit in his room and watch shows while eating indomie to celebrate the occasion. She gathered their friends to plan a birthday surprise which left Kevin with a warm feeling in his heart.

And this is how Kevin met Elyssa.

What's the best meal you have eaten together?

Kevin - When we try something new and Elyssa enjoys it so much that she has this look on her face that makes miso happy.

Elyssa - Barbecues in my mom's place in Melbourne. Chilling on the patio, cooking up a feast. good food, good company.

The most spontaneous thing we’ve done

Random explorations to different places

A life goal of ours

To know Christ, to love others, and to help others know Christ :)

We’re on the same page about

Our Faith in Christ -

We believe that marriage is not just about having lovey dovey feelings for each other, but a commitment that we make before God. We believe that our marriage should be a reflection of God's marriage to the church full of sacrificial and unconditional love. As flawed human beings, we are bound to fall short of this standard, which is why we need Christ at the center of our marriage.

We are regulars at

Fairprice
Chicha San chen
MingFa fishball noodles
Toa Payoh market Lorong 8
Kaisendon
PLQ
If not, we are usually home :P

The dorkiest thing about us is

Kevin: Makes random noises to communicate like a secret language
Elyssa: Random bursts of energy that result in jumping around at times
