All through my childhood my family and I were what Miles would call Chreasters, attending church on Christmas and Easter. We would attend the Methodist Church that my grandparents went to, where about 80% of the congregation was over 60. One year my mom decided that my sister and I should go through the confirmation class offered by the church. It was there that I began to know the Lord. I then started attending the youth group (with all five other kids), bible study, worked in the nursery on Sundays and got involved in the church services. I had finally found the constant in my life that I had been searching for and felt more at home then I had ever felt before. I knew that God was always going to be there, and that he would always make a way.
I have been following the Lord ever since, and for the past seven years have attended the ROCK Church. I didn’t know where I would fit in, and began to try out different ministries. When I attended the first group meeting with the Cancer Care Ministry, I realized how amazing it was and was hooked. I have had many friends whose loved ones have had battles with cancer, some winning, and some losing. I realize the incredible stress it puts on a family, and made a commitment to try and help families in any way I can. I know God has brought me to this ministry for a reason, and am so excited to see what he has in store for me, and for this ministry! |
