Wanji was an accomplished engineer in his 30s, searching for love but certain he hadn’t yet met her—the woman God had for him. Born and raised in Sierra Leone, he had moved to the United States for university and work, building a successful life but still waiting for the right person.
Meanwhile, across the ocean, his mother and her friend—Mire’s mother—were busy making connections neither of them saw coming. As they spoke about their children, they realized Wanji and Mire had uncanny similarities. Sensing a match, Wanji’s mother urged him to call Mire in London. He was hesitant—he was already dating someone—but to appease his mother, he made the call. Nothing came of it.
A year later, while visiting his mother in London, Wanji crossed paths with Mire in passing. Still, nothing.
Time passed, and while visiting his family in Sierra Leone for Christmas, Wanji’s mother made one more request: call Mire. Annoyed at the persistence, he finally gave in—at 11:45 p.m. on Christmas Eve.
He never expected her to answer.
What started as a reluctant phone call turned into something unexpected. A simple lunch invitation led to a revelation—this was her. The woman his heart had longed for, the one God was giving him as a gift.
This is a love story of faith, patience, and divine timing across three continents. In this second of a two-part episode, Wanji shares his side of the love story. Don’t miss Episode A to hear Mire’s incredible journey to the same moment.
