Destiny.
🥿🎁He gave away a simple shoebox without imagining that years later it would lead him to the love of his life.
In 2000, Tyrel Wolfe, a 7-year-old boy from Idaho, participated in 'Operation Christmas Child,' a program that sends gifts to children in different countries packaged in shoeboxes. His box traveled thousands of miles to the Philippines, where it was received by Joana Marchan, also 7 years old. Inside were school supplies, a small gift, and a photo of Tyrel, which she treasured throughout her childhood.
More than a decade passed before Joana decided to look for the boy in the photo on Facebook in 2011. She sent him a friend request and they started talking. Soon the greeting turned into a deep friendship that grew stronger over the months.
Years later, in 2013, Tyrel traveled to Manila to meet her in person and spend time with her family. Then, in 2014, they reunited in Idaho, where they married in a simple outdoor ceremony.
As a special touch, they asked the guests to bring shoe boxes instead of gifts for the same program that had brought them together.
And it was love ❤️.
