Testimony:
How do I even attempt to paint the most beautiful thing I have ever seen?
How do I pen about the most fascinating person I have ever experienced? How do I speak my absolute infatuation for the One who not only changed my life, but gives me life eternally?
Jesus is my greatest passion. He is my absolute heart's desire. Everything in my life outside of Him is meaningless. Period. At nine years of age, I professed Him publicly as Savior of my soul. It was not until my early twenties however, that I professed Jesus as Lord of my heart and was baptized. It was at this juncture that I began to truly walk with the Son of God. He captivated me and became prominent in my life. I began to serve Jesus the Christ through my familiy, art, and teaching.
Now, Christ has brought me to this wonderful Gillionville Baptist family. I am compelled and completely committed to shepherding this student body. I am so eager to equip and encourage each of our young people to live out the Great Commission. Each of us are created to carry out this very purpose in our lives.
