On a blizzard filled night in February, Jesse and Courtney’s lives were about to change forever. Courtney had accepted a calling to be a counselor at the Lost Willows Youth Camp where Jesse had been a youth leader for many years. Courtney pulled up to the snow-dusted youth camp for the first time. Innocently, she parked her car in an area meant only for busses, grabbed her bags, and headed off to unpack. Jesse arrived on the scene to find tour buses full of rowdy excited teens backed up as far as the eye could see. Pandemonium ensued. With the entrance blocked by cars the buses were unable to unload. So Jessie went in search of the owner of the Ford Escape which seemed to be the most offending culprit. After fifty minutes of frantic searching he finally had the identity of the Escape owner, Courtney Jones, and was off to find her. Jesse’s persistence brought him to the base of a snow encrusted staircase. His eyes rested on Courtney standing at the top. Giggling in embarrassment she descended in her six-inch stiletto knee high boots with Jesse’s eyes never leaving her. Later Jesse confessed, “When she reached the bottom I wanted to grab her left hand to see if she was married.” He secretly said to God, “I want to marry this girl one day.”
Happily for Jesse and Courtney “one day” turned out to be March 31 2012 (also his birthday). What an amazing gift.
