unwilling to commit to Christ until he was a senior in high school. He attended
an FCA event and heard the gospel as he had countless times before. This time it gripped his heart. He met with the speaker from the FCA event after the meeting and he acknowledged he was a sinner and in need of a savior. He placed his trust in the work of Christ and became a child of God.

for the last 6 years, and became a member 5 years ago.
