[02:18:21]>> Hello.

[02:18:25]I learn words to express my joy.

[02:18:31]>> I think today is my happiest day and this is all what a parent, a mother will love to see.

[02:18:47]Send your daughter to make her own life. Is your pride is my pride. It's our pride.

[02:18:59][cheering] To say a word is more than words can express and you don't know what to say.

[02:19:23]I wish if my mother who just passed away was here to witness this because she was actually longing to see this baby.

[02:19:38]And the day Claudia presented the husband, my mother turned and said, "I can die now."

[02:19:48]>> And she did.

[02:19:52]And she did. But before going, I think the purpose of her living was fulfilled. Amen.

[02:20:05][applause] >> Not only a husband but a beria [cheering] which we have been praying for.

[02:20:20]Which we have been praying for. Cla is not our daughter but is our sister.

[02:20:27]>> We share together.

[02:20:30]We don't even have secrets.

[02:20:33]>> So it's a woman. I don't know how I'm going to go without her by name.

[02:20:43]>> She was warning and she has been warning. I never knew this day will come and it has finally come.

[02:20:50]>> But I pray I'll have Gloria substitute by me.

[02:20:57]>> Yes.

[02:21:00]is there to [cheering] n as I can see as a mother if there's nothing I can say more about rather than the mother I'm just nanny the mother is sitting right there.

[02:21:30]>> Victory.

[02:21:32]>> Can you come and talk more about your daughter?

[02:21:40][music] >> [music] >> I [music] forget you on my way back.

[02:21:58][singing] I never forget you. [music] >> My dear brothers, my dear sisters, these are tears of joy. These are tears.

[02:22:12]My mother died in your dream. So please don't worry. We cry a lot. We laugh a lot.

[02:22:24]>> Hello.

[02:22:25]>> Hi.

[02:22:27]>> Hello.

[02:22:28]>> Hi.

[02:22:29]>> Good evening everybody.

[02:22:32]And thank you all for coming to celebrate my incredible daughter with me.

[02:22:52]It's so difficult to hold the tears without those who don't know this is mommy number two.

[02:23:08]This is mommy in such a location some years ago.

[02:23:19]She was sent off to me.

[02:23:22]Sent off with me as my first daughter, as my little helper.

[02:23:31]I am standing here today witnessing her in the same occasion.

[02:23:40]makes me so proud to see the little girl that I've raised and she has grown up to be a wonderful woman.

[02:24:00]She is finally called in my family mom.

[02:24:06]Not just because she bears my mom's name, but just because she is the mother indeed.

[02:24:14]She takes care of all of us.

[02:24:17]She takes care of all her siblings.

[02:24:24]I can travel the world and have confidence that the younger ones will stay in good condition just because she is there.

[02:24:40]She is a wonderful daughter.

[02:24:44]As my sister rightly said, any mother longs to see her child get married to a God-chosen husband.

[02:24:58]The day she came to me and told me, because she doesn't keep anything away from me, the day she came to me and told me she has found a partner, a future husband, I was happy, deeply happy.

[02:25:18]But I did not express it because there was a hidden emotion in me. Fear, fear of losing her.

[02:25:36]But if someone courage to let her go, because you're supposed to allow them to grow to experience it as well.

[02:25:55]And so let's take that courage.

[02:26:00]When my mom came to the US, when my mom came to the US 3 years ago, each time my daughter enters her room, she will ask her, "Siru, oh, you are which means when are you going to get married?

[02:26:26]So we always laugh but she actually wanted to see her married and happy. So the day she brought this handsome Bal [applause and cheering] my newly gained son my newly gained brother.

[02:26:49]>> When she brought her you could see the joy in my mother's face. She was so happy.

[02:26:58]And when he said he was going back to Texas, my mom said, "I hope he will not go and ruin.

[02:27:07][laughter] I hope you're coming back." The second time they came again, my mom said, "Why are they only coming and going? When are they coming to take you?"

[02:27:20]But she gave them her blessings and she longed for this day.

[02:27:27]What is consoling us is that she took part in the introduction of mom to the husband and she actually blessed it and we know that she's with us there watching from her and blessing this union as she had wanted it to be.

[02:27:57]uh to my nearly son as I've said thank you for loving my daughter the woman love her you see that a woman is loved when she giggles all the time that the husband is there and that is what she does she can't hide it and I see that in her and I so much appreciate you for loving her the way you were the We love her.

[02:28:29]My daughter, as I've said, she takes care of us. She loves to cook.

[02:28:35]She she [laughter] she loves to try things.

[02:28:40]She's our model.

[02:28:43]She cooks anything that she thinks about.

[02:28:47]Every time she brings us food, we say, "Mom, please." And she doesn't take away. She goes, she goes to the kitchen one minute, she's out.

[02:28:56]When she brings something, we say, "Mom, please, please take time to cook this thing." She will say, "Mommy, I'll not bring it. I'll not even bring it. You don't pay me." The next day, she will bring it back. The next day, she will invent something and bring back. So, this is what I'm telling you.

[02:29:15]You see, you have to be careful because she will feed you fat.

[02:29:20]If you if you are not careful, she will feed you fat. So you just need to mind the way you're eating it because she will do it. She will cook it. As I've said, she doesn't listen.

[02:29:35]My daughter, marriage is a journey and you've just begun it.

[02:29:44]You've listened to so many people talk.

[02:29:48]It's a journey that you learn every day.

[02:29:52]You never stop learning.

[02:29:56]I pray that the good Lord that brought you guys together will keep you together will multiply your people and I'll come for so many.

[02:30:16]>> Thank you all. Thank you my family. I'm well pleased and comforted because I know she has joined very she has entered a very good family.

[02:30:30]I want to [music] give special thanks to TB.

[02:40:06]I don't always advise people and say go any occasion they invite you to go especially if you're not married when you understand why there is a story behind this union. It started as a sad story but culminated into this beautiful union.

[02:40:28]I would like to invite a friend to the couple Mr. Clovis >> to please come and say a word.

[02:40:40]>> And Mr. Clovis, Mr. Clovis is known for his gravity.

[02:40:48]>> So, Mr. Clovis, you have two minutes to do your magic.

[02:40:56][music] Hello.

[02:41:06]>> Hello.

[02:41:08]>> Thank you.

[02:41:10]>> So from today I'm officially taking the post of matchmaking.

[02:41:16][cheering] >> All right. I will speak in a language I'm very comfortable with which is teaching.

[02:41:24]>> So what happened on this day? They said something is boy fixed some another one right >> so we were something happened sometime again it was not something um good a sister a friend lost the brother and we kind of had a wicked and then this this my brother my friend in fact we grew up together in we used to steal pills and at the same time we go and self mask together the mom and the dad will confirm again he's my brother he's my friend So we went for the wake he was to come and play again. All of us know he's an organist and he sings as well. We were there we were enjoying and I know he was just from a a very very hard self breakfast that they had given to him. So while he was singing the hand was also singing. [laughter] At some point I look at my brother I was like guy have fun.

[02:42:20]He said I don't see some small pass again. The target was not we saw a target. It was one small nice again. Let me let me go a little bit. Claudia's mother was seriously dancing. She was putting on a white a white shaw. I can remember very well dancing until Victoria was shaking. And then this guy knew exactly what to do. He was playing the songs that would take them away. So they were enjoying while we were playing at the background. They don't know this was what was happening.

[02:42:51]So while while the occasion was going on, there was this very beautiful girl that came in. I was like, "Guy, we don't see her." I know say come off from this situation, but let's let's let's target this one. We went there just sitting there. He was still playing. He was playing. I was the one doing the, you know, idling and looking from the background like a big brother. I was looking from the background. And when I saw the first girl, I was like after a few moves, you know, when you see, you have to see Beyonce.

[02:43:21]>> So I looked at that first girl, she was.

[02:43:23]And then a few minutes after I discovered that she was not. I was like, guy, you were not to try this one. We just come up for another one. You go into another one. And that was not our prayer. So the occasion continued. Now everybody left and then the liquidation committee stayed. I was part of the I was the chairman of the liquidation committee. Right.

[02:43:45]>> [cheering] >> You guys are with me today. In fact, I have without you, you guys would not be here today.

[02:43:53][cheering] >> So, who is the most important person now?

[02:43:57]>> That's why they call me Papa. Thank you so much.

[02:44:02]>> So, at some point um while everybody left, we sat there for was singing.

[02:44:08]Claudia was sitting on one couch at one corner. And again as somebody I go I go to their house every day again. So now she's my friend. I am always in their house. We play card watch movies again.

[02:44:20]I never look at her beyond you know small sister kind of vibes. But on this day wife of me was singing again like I said this is a wake. That's why I'm saying that when you are here this is celebration. Don't only see look in fact I'm taking I don't think.

[02:44:37]So at some point for me was singing.

[02:44:40]>> Sure. Sure.

[02:44:41]>> I discovered that was somewhere like just growing. She was going, "This is a girl I always see every day." But at this point, she was mesmerized. Is that an English word?

[02:44:53]>> Okay. She was mesmerized at that point.

[02:44:55]>> She was overtaken and emotions were overflowing.

[02:44:59]>> So I saw in her eyes and I was like, "Guy, we don't meet us on small team." I don't know why, but we try this one again. Like I said, I always do the matchmaking. From today, I'm starting my matchmaking app. Okay. So you can join if you are single.

[02:45:12]>> We got to this point the crew that did this matchmaking are like five of us. One of those pass consent time. So when I noticed that was like I wish my man can sing. I okay why are we why are we why are we here?

[02:45:26][laughter] God brought us here for a reason and we have to meet our purpose for coming here.

[02:45:31]>> So while they were singing for me was playing the organ. I was like guy at this point for you this organ. Oh god, you do Constantine then you take over.

[02:45:41]So we deceived Constantine with something and then he took over the the piano and and started singing and then for me moved from where he was sitting and then came to the right to the right ministry where the issue had to take place again. Let me not let me not tell you guys something at this point until Victoria and Claudia's mother they were seriously dancing. They didn't know what was happening, but the guys at the background knew exactly what was happening.

[02:46:12]>> We got to that point wherein um for me came and s I was like I don't try my best. He don't come up from place for your corner.

[02:46:23]Good luck. So I left them there. They started talking. While they were talking, we were watching a movie. Some other people were dancing. I mean liquidation committee know what happens there.

[02:46:33]>> So we left them they discussed for a few minutes and then I saw for the first time my brother became happy. So I knew that something had clicked at that point. He was like I was like guy he said all that number I said I will give you number for your corner. [laughter] So they discussed they had their conversation and finally the numbers were exchanged. Now we were already one step ahead. We don't for once as that number is in your phone. If you are now it means you are not serious. So at that point I knew that for me he had seen something. I knew that my brother was happy. The next day he called I heard that I wanted to go and visit somebody is coming to vis.

[02:47:14]So I discovered became serious now was flying used to be home 24/7. Now I am flying to I am catching flight. I'm not catching feelings.

[02:47:27][cheering] At that point I told that you have seen a man who is funny with money.

[02:47:36][cheering] >> So my brother finally found the apple of his eye. So I at that point I decided that officially I'm a matchmaker. So [cheering] um Mr. and Mrs. I want to thank you guys for giving me this opportunity and for maybe answering the call of God through me. I want to wish you guys the best that will not end here. I think in 9 months we should be coming for something.

[03:05:20]Let's see how this thing go. You know, I get 2 minutes. I'm going to make sure we dance. I'll be DJ. So, I like to dance.

[03:05:29]>> So, I'm going to make it short. So, I'm just why I'm saying these things is because I'm trying to show you guys the signs, the things that made me knew this was a want.

[03:05:40]Every other girl would jump into the opportunity and say, "Yeah, come. You know, I want this. I They'll tell you the list of the things they won't want."

[03:05:47]She was like, "No, no, don't come." And she was getting pissed. She was really angry like, "Don't come." So, I paid the flight and I cancelled it. And I was like, "Okay, I won't do it. if want sporting them leave at all. So, I left it and one thing to the other, we're here. But again, just like I said, it didn't take me long to know that she was born. She is. Ever since she came to my life, they always say woman for your life. The right woman just the right woman brings a lot of stuff into your life. And ever since you came, there's been one blessing to the next.

[03:06:28][applause and cheering] There are things I came into the US and I prayed for and those things wouldn't materialize when she came into my life.

[03:06:38]And I knew >> and I knew those things didn't just happen by chance. It happened because she was there. The times have been down and she'll call me and say, "Baby, you need to do this." And I'm like, "Uh, and before I wake up the next morning, she's taking care of me. She's done it all.

[03:06:59]knowing that where's I said no experience and there was a day I had to score her I was like you don't have to solve any problem I was like you cannot solve it all like let me take care of some things this is the first time in my life I've had to tell the woman again it was another sign it was another sign that I need to appreciate her I need to love this woman And so be I made the decision [music] and I told myself if all these years I've prayed for this and it's coming on life, [music] I'm not going to take what has happened in the past and bring it into something that's beautiful.

[03:08:03]And so I made the decision that I'm going to love her with everybody.

[03:08:14][music] I was nobody. [music] Nobody has influence over us. Okay?

[03:08:27]Nobody. Not my mom, not my dad, nobody.
