Parachute stories
1. "
O
ne year I needed a ride to Parachute Festival. I wanted to go up on the Friday night and come back early Sunday morning, so I could go to work Monday. So, I got a ride with a guy called Trevor who I had known all my life but not really been friends with. I was nervous about spending three hours in a car with a guy that I didn’t really know. It turns out I didn’t have anything to worry about. Trev was great to talk to. What stood out most for me was that he knew what he liked and didn’t. Over the weekend we saw a bit of each other and he was easy to talk to. We left after the main act on Sunday night and we still found things to talk about, even though it was late. I climbed into bed at 3am; as my head hit the pillow I asked God if I could marry someone like Trevor. Three year later I did and we are about to celebrate our first anniversary. It’s amazing how God brings people together, if I didn’t need that ride I probably wouldn’t have got to talk to Trev and our relationship would be very different.”
