My husband shared our love story a few years ago—how we found each other at  Christian Filipina. Here is my version, and for me, it’s worth sharing again and again. In my first few attempts on this site, I thought that on this Christian platform, men would be decent enough to be called “Christians.” Unfortunately, some of them were just using it to take advantage, and if you are not keen enough, you will indeed fall into a trap. I almost gave up on my love life. I had relationships in the past that failed and told myself, this time, “I’m gonna do me.” I would focus on my career as a public school teacher and just spend quality time with my daughter. I didn’t expect that this last try would end up in my “FOREVER.” When Marcellus (now my husband) reached out to me through the site, I was so hesitant. I thought that this would be the same old story. “Why not give it a try? This would be the last anyway.” I never thought that our first chats would turn into daily, long hours of conversations. I used to bring him to my class, just watching me while I taught. We talked for hours! We fell asleep together! This gave us the chance to know and learn from each other even more. We weren’t just dating—we were actually planning for the future. We asked the most uncomfortable questions, which helped us dig into the sincerity we have for each other. He is a Pastor, a minister. All I hear from him—if not prayers—are words of wisdom, affirmation, encouragement, and above all, the Love of God that resonates each and every day. This is what makes our love story special. We share the same beliefs and faith. We pray together, fast together, and study the Word together. He financed the ministries we had—feeding my students, Christmas gift distributions, and several feeding programs in my town. As I study him day by day, I see the Man of God that I once thought would be impossible to meet. It’s his consistency. His faith has never shaken. His actions show it all. Those hours of talking turned into years until we decided to finally meet. It was never easy. It was like needle after needle. There were challenges in every single attempt. First was his canceled flight because of a misspelled name on his ticket. That felt like a heartbreak! I had prepared everything—from the travel details to the flights and preparations for his arrival. I already decorated the porch for the welcome. It was a very emotional experience because I had to travel alone to Manila and use the tickets, hotel reservations, and even restaurants that were supposed to be enjoyed by both of us. Second was the eruption of Taal Volcano, which led to the cancellation of flights. He was waiting at the New York airport when that happened. As people of faith, we battled the situation through prayers, claiming that WE WILL SEE EACH OTHER SOON! Some of my friends even questioned if this was a legit relationship or if it might be a scam. It took a leap of faith to believe that this wouldn’t be the second time the devil interrupted our plans. I slept and trusted God that in the morning I would receive good news—and yes! I woke up with his video message inside the cabin waiting to take off! I jumped and cried like a little girl. Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord!!! I was also prepared to fly to Manila to pick him up at the airport. Mind you, I was there three hours before his arrival. That’s how excited I was! When I saw his flight’s arrival, I said to myself, “An angel has arrived!” Man!! He looked so good! He’s so pleasant and sooo tall! When I finally stood face to face with him, I grabbed his face and said, “You are so tall!” That day was one of the happiest days of my entire life! Almost two weeks of being with him felt so close to heaven! He is such a gentleman. He’s indeed a man of God, waking up so early to pray and worship. He finally met my daughter and my family and got the chance to have a glimpse of “province life.” We had our best days traveling around and outside the town. We enjoyed Boracay and Manila as well. Those talks, walks, and even the meals brought so many memories. I’ve never felt this good with a man. I’ve never been treated like this by a man. Those days went so fast. I was not ready to end those moments. By the time he went back to the US, I couldn’t help but wonder: Is he still gonna talk to me? Will he still pursue me? Will he still love me? He indeed was a man of his word. The pandemic delayed our K-1 process, but it was all worth it! The secret ingredients? Not new to us—FAITH and PRAYERS. We were victorious! In September 2022, we finally arrived in the US, got married, and started our journey as husband and wife. Did I ever feel homesickness? Absolutely! But my husband, as my best friend, made me feel so at home in his arms that it became such an easy and smooth transition. He never failed to encourage me and prayed for me in those lonely days. Did we have misunderstandings? Of course! There’s no such thing as a perfect marriage, and we always meet in prayer and love. He would always remind me that we are not enemies—the devil is the enemy! We are living the best days of our lives. It is so good to feel that you married your best friend. And one more thing—the fact that he is black? It makes it even more special! The romance, the surprises, the serenades, the gifts, the cuddles! Phew! All of the above! I could not ask for more! I believe in the saying, “Once you go black, you can never go back!” But seriously, black or white, red or brown, when you finally find true love—it is the closest thing to heaven! Now we are looking forward to going back to the Philippines to continue the ministry we started. We have our YouTube channel, M&M Favor, where we usually upload videos of our food and gift distributions as part of our ministry as a couple. I tell my single friends who long for a relationship worth living for that God authors every love story. You just have to ask, obey, and trust Him! I never thought I would have mine until I laid it all before God. He’s not done with you yet! His plans and timing are always perfect. ChristianFilipina, we don’t believe in coincidence. Your platform was used by God for me and my husband to meet. We ain’t looking back! No regrets! Just pure love and joy! Kudos to you and the whole team. God bless you, and may you be an instrument to others as well in finding their “happily ever after.”

We met on Christian Filipina on February 10, 2024. Through video calls and heartfelt conversations, we quickly felt God’s hand bringing us together, and we became a couple on February 14.

By God’s grace, our love has grown, and I will soon travel to the United States to marry him.
To everyone still waiting, keep praying and trusting in God’s perfect timing. Your love story will come.

Thank you, Christian Filipina, for being part of our story.

Hazel and I met in February 2024 on Christian Filipina. After a few days of exchanging messages, we began video chatting for three to four hours every day; we read the Bible together, prayed together, and sought God’s guidance for our future. We both felt as if He had brought us together, so I sold my house in August and moved to General Santos City in September 2024, where I rented a house in a subdivision. We spent every day together, and I quickly connected with her two teenage children. After a month, we got engaged, and we were married in December 2024. Since then, we have bought property and built a home in her province, where we have a beautiful view of Mt. Matutum. We’ve become deeply involved in our local church and community, and we truly love the opportunity to share our blessings and our home with others. I can honestly say this was one of the best decisions of my life; I truly love our life here in the Philippines.

I had been a widower for about 1 1/2 years when my two daughters said, “Dad, it’s time for you to find happiness again. Go on the internet and search.” I looked at hundreds of ladies until I found someone who’s interested in me. My youngest sister suggested I try a Christian dating site, so I joined Christian Filipina. I found a lady and sent her a wink; to my surprise, she called! We talked twice a day for over two months. I told Rhodora that I couldn’t commit over the phone, so I went to visit her and her family. I truly enjoyed those 28 days. On her birthday, I asked Rhodora to marry me, and she said yes! I returned to Minnesota on March 16. We still talk two or three times every day, and in October, I returned to Rhodora’s home for another 29 days. Our love has only grown stronger each day. Thank you, Christian Filipina, for helping me find the love of my life! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi, my name is Susie. I joined Christian Filipina in MAY 2024 because my friend I saw told me about her bf, so I asked her where she met him. She said it was on CF. It was also a long time before having a boyfriend—almost a year and a half. I prayed if He won’t bless me with a bf by the end of 2025, I would stop and leave. But God is good all the time. Eric messaged me 3 days ago, and then I noticed it was midnight here. I said wait, and I will reply to this first. Then the next day he replied. “We didn’t have a relationship right away,” he said. “He had lots of people to chat with, so there would be options. He said it was ok so you have a choice.” I didn’t expect us to have a relationship. After a week of chatting, I already have my eyes on him. But in the Philippines, we have to wait for the man to confess his love even if you already love him. I didn’t expect him to like me because he was chatting with a younger girl. than me, who has one child and is only his age. Until I woke up, he said he had decided that I have more qualities in common with him. I am grateful to CHRISTIAN FILIPINA, who was the way for me to meet the man I dream of being with forever with the help of the powerful God. Thank you, Christian Filipina, and more power. I hope you meet many more hearts. God bless.

I started using a dating website called Cupid Filipina when I began looking for a wife in the Philippines. However, I encountered many problems, including numerous scammers. When I learned about Christian Filipina, I decided to give it a try, especially since I was planning to go through them for a K-1 visa once I found the right woman.

I spent about a month on this website and met many beautiful and wonderful Filipinas, but I struggled to find a connection. It wasn’t their fault; I was simply hoping for something special. Just when I was about to give up, I came across Angelica’s profile. Her beauty captivated me, and even before I read her profile, I felt compelled to email her. Despite chatting with many lovely women, I was hoping to find that spark between us.

I’m so glad I didn’t give up because Angelica was the woman I had been searching for all along. We connected deeply, and our conversations felt like two lovers who had been apart for far too long. Meeting her in person was even more amazing. We spent all our time together, enjoying each other’s company, no matter what we were doing. Whether we were just lounging in bed watching movies or exploring together, we cherished every moment.

Initially, I worried about our age gap: I was 48, and Angelica was 29. I wasn’t sure if we had anything in common, but I was pleasantly surprised. We complement each other well and often know what the other is thinking. She makes my life easier, and I have loved sharing my passion for RVing.

What I appreciate about Christian Filipina is their effort to screen out problematic accounts. During my time on the website, fraudulent accounts were promptly removed. While the company does its best to maintain a safe environment, it’s ultimately up to each person to make the right choices when interacting with others on the site.

As of now, Angelica and I have had our wedding ceremony for her parents, which cost around 198,823.43 pesos, or about $3,400.00 USD. When you consider the expenses for food, a four-tier cake, music, venue rental, and staff, it really wasn’t much. Her mother even offered us land to build a house when she learned how much I loved the village where Angelica lived. We are also excited to be expecting our first child.

Leaving other websites and joining Christian Filipina was the best decision I made in my search for a Filipina wife.

At first, I wasn’t interested in joining dating apps because I was afraid of getting scammed and of men who would not be real with me. But because of my aunt, who recommended a dating app and advised me to try to find the right man for me, I joined. When I joined the Christian Filipina app, I didn’t know that this would change my life.

When I saw his message, I wasn’t interested in opening it yet. I opened his profile first. The funny thing is, I was looking into his eyes and his nose, and they were so attractive to my eyes that it made me interested in having a conversation with him. So after we started exchanging conversations, I never thought that he was such a funny man; he always makes me laugh and makes my day. After two years of being together with him, it is so beautiful. We make our relationship strong even though we are far away from each other. He always has time for me, even though he is so busy with work. And the one thing I love about our relationship is that we understand each other and we always make each other happy; that’s why our love is always strong.

Being in a long-distance relationship is not easy, but he gave me assurance that we are really meant for each other. He is an amazing man, and I’m so lucky that I met him and have him in my life.

And now, after two years, we met in person, and we had a ceremony, and it made me cry with happiness. He is the one who said that we should have a ceremony in the Philippines so my family could experience and witness us being together, because he knew that my mother and father couldn’t experience it if we were going to get married in America. That’s what made me fall more in love with him because he is thinking of my family, not only me. That’s why I’m so lucky to have a man like him. He is such an amazing man; he is the best gift that God gave to me.

So now we are engaged and planning to get married again. That’s why we are going to start processing my K1 visa and build a complete family.

So, to all Filipinas who are searching for the right one for them, I 100% recommend this Christian Filipina app because they are so kind, and they always have your back to help you.

I like to say that I am very happy that I joined the Christian Filipina app. The overwhelming contacts from women all over the world, especially the Philippines, were a wow factor. Many had my attention, but one stood out the most. Susie, aka Zosima, is her name, and she was very persistent. Every time we chatted, the more my heart grew for her. She’s a beautiful and wonderful woman. I believe she’s going to make me happy for the rest of my life. She’s very attentive to my feelings and what I wanted in a woman. Our love is growing daily. I am very pleased with this program for men like me. So thank you, Christian Filipina. You delivered on what your program stood for.

One Year of Love, Faith, and God’s Timing: I met my boyfriend through Christian Filipina, and it has been one of God’s greatest blessings in my life. Before joining, I prayed to God for a man who loves Him, respects me, and would walk with me in faith. I surrendered my heart and trusted that God would guide me to the right person in His perfect time. When I met my boyfriend, I immediately felt peace. Our conversations were full of kindness, prayer, and encouragement. Even though we live far from each other and haven’t met in person yet, our relationship has grown strong for one whole year. This journey taught me that love is not only about being together physically—it’s about trust, commitment, communication, and putting God at the center. We pray together, support each other, and continue to believe that God will open the right door for us to meet when the time is right. I truly believe God connected us for a purpose. What started online became a relationship built on faith, patience, and genuine love. I am thankful to God for my boyfriend and for Christian Filipina for being the bridge that brought us together. This testimony reminds me that God’s plans are always better than ours. To those still waiting—keep praying, keep trusting, and never lose hope. God is working even when you can’t see it yet.

On my part, I tried several apps over the course of a year, but nothing worked. I became curious about Christian Filipina after hearing that it was a legitimate site. In the middle of the night on December 24, 2024, I prayed: ‘Lord, if I don’t find the person meant for me, I will leave all the apps I joined.’

At about 1:00 AM, I received a message from Thomas, and we began talking. Thomas told me he tried Christian Filipina because he heard on YouTube that it was good and genuine. He had messaged three younger women before me, but it didn’t work out because they were materialistic. I was the fourth person he messaged. After two and a half months of talking, he decided to come to the Philippines to see me in person for 11 days. He returned in July of the same year for 28 days, and three months later, he came back again on November 6, 2025, and has been here ever since. By the way, we are already engaged!
