Man proposes to boyfriend in church - church responds perfectly

Love is love, and this congregation embraced that.

Trevor Harper and Davis Covin, who have been dating for nine years, are active members of the First United Methodist Church of Austin in Texas. Harper proposed to Covin at the church earlier this month in front of the congregation -- a moment which was captured in a video and shared on YouTube.

The congregation responded to the magical moment in the best way possible -- with a standing ovation. We must say, we'd totally be lying if we didn't tear up a bit ourselves while watching the proposal.

Harper told BuzzFeed News that the couple's church, which they've belonged to for two years, has been supportive of the pair's relationship and welcome people of all sexual orientations to attend. When Harper proposed, the pair had actually been sharing the story of their faith during the service, according to the video.
