Why I am a Youth Minister
|
| |
God called me to this life. He persued my heart in this way. He sent His only Son into this world, so that we might know Him. love Him, reconcile ourselves to Him and so that he may be a model for holiness. I know that with every ounce of my being, I am called to help teens fall in love with Jesus Christ! Teens will come to transform the world and to set it on fire. St. John Bosco, patron saint of youth said: "That you are young enough for me to love you". I love teens because they're exactly who God wants them to be. I am a youth minister to help facilitate teens relationship with Christ, the way that I had so many amazing people, help me along the way. |
About Me
|
| |
I'm the only girl out of five kids. My brothers are pretty protective, but pretty amazing. I've lived in Virginia my whole life, except for when I went to graduate school in Ohio. I went to Christopher Newport University for undergrad and Franciscan University of Steubenville for grad school. I love Jesus and him momma a lot! I pretty much guzzle water ALL DAY LONG! I love a good cry, reading a great book, and of course singing into my hairbrush at the top of my lungs. I'm pretty much the loudest and most energetic person you'll ever meet. PERIOD! |
