[H]eart

Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. I love hosting and having a place where people feel safe and comfortable coming and sharing their lives.

2. I enjoy helping others find confidence and to trust that God made them who they are and to walk confidently in that.

3. I love to sing and worship God in song. Music speaks strongly to my soul and I find myself lost in His presence and my surroundings fading when I give myself to Him in praise and worship.

Who I love to work with most, and the age or type of people:

I love working with teenagers the most (15-19). I tend to work better with a more dominate personality that will take the lead and that I can assist.

Church issues, ministries, or possible needs that excite or concern me the most:

I’m excited to see personal growth in church, (people’s response, posture, and excitement toward Christ). I love the teen and young adult ministries.

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I’ve always felt a nearness to Christ for as long as I can remember. The actual point of when I asked Him into my life was at 10 years old when I saw an Easter play about the crucifixion of Christ. I knew in a moment that I wanted Him to be the most important part of my life.
