I was first baptised
I aksed my mother to be baptized when I was about 9 or 10
I remember feeling I was ready to live by the word of God. I felt that I was ready to commit to the standards of whch a christian had to adhere by. I had a water baptism and all of my family was there to bear witness to the event. -

Up Club
My frends and I plus a lot of neighborhood kids would go to Up Club. Up Club was ran by a religious organization that promoted christianity. They would come and pick us up on Thursday evenings, teach up about God, the Bible, they would feed us dinner, and then take us back home. This was a major part of my adolesent life and understanding God. Also, the introduction of starting a relationship with God. -

Friday Madness
After Up Club loss funding. My friends and I started attending a church event that was held every friday. It was called Friday Madness, It kept us out of a lot of trouble. We still managed to find a little but not a whole lot. Friday Madness was like a bible study party on Friday night. -

Birth of My Son
The birth of my son was amazing. Bringing life into this world has a spiritual enlighntenment that is unexplainable. What the body goes through while pregnant and what you personally experience when delivering is unimainable and unexplanable. -
