"You have been with me when I’ve been at my lowest and helped me understand myself to navigate my own darkness. You have also celebrated the highs, which have been so many, as, for the first time in my life, I’m happy with the man I’ve become. You came to church with me and joined the incredible community we have there without a question," before quoting Bible verses relevant to their love story.
