Short Testimony:
I grew up in Christian home with absolutely the best parents in the world who love Jesus. At a time both my parents were diagnosed with cancer and I had no idea what to do or think. This was a huge moment when I turned to God and knew he needed to be real. Through God's grace he used his hand of healing in my life. God really showed me what true faith is. My faith has grown so much and I know that my life was paid at a price and I need to live as a living sacrifice for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Why do you serve in MSM?
I love students and working in ministry. I feel God is calling me to do full time ministry in youth. I love it!

When I was a kid I wanted to...
Well when I was in my prime, i wanted a pro soccer player and move to Europe to make the big bucks. Then when I believed that would never happen I wanted to be a firefighter and drive the big red fire truck (especially through all the red lights)!


How I came to know Jesus:
I was in 5th grade and my teacher's husband spoke in a chapel. God really spoke through him and hit my heart. That day I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior! November 12, 2000

They are crazy and way fun to hang out with. It never gets old.

What was your first word as a baby?
Blah

What is your life verse?
2 Timothy 4:7-8- I have fought the good fight, i have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.

These verses really spur me on to push through life even when times are really hard. Finish the race and fighting for the name of Jesus Christ. Heaven is what we have to look forward to because our God gave himself up for us so that we may be with him. This powerful love shown to us is something that needs to be shown to others in this world.

Africa

What's you're most embarrassing moment?
I don't have any

What's currently you're favorite attribute of God?
My current attribute of God that I adore is his Grace over us. We do not deserve anything from God. He is all powerful and does not need us. But even though we are sinful he loves us still and works in our lives everyday. His grace covers all the sin that we may commit in the future, right now, and everything in the past. God loves us and he has shown us grace like no other.
