Just as a brief foreword, I want to say that this is probably going to be my most exciting Blog post. I can’t even imagine a more wonderful day. My life is changed so dramatically…
On Sunday June 29th with the Grace and Love of Christ Jesus I had the courage to make my faith public. I was Baptized at Passion City Church by an awesome mentor and brother in Christ. This is an amazing day in the life of any Christian, but for me it was especially epic…
Ever since I was seventeen I have been on my own, searching and longing for a Church that I actually belonged to. I’ve tried so many places and couldn’t help but feel that the majority of the time people are just looking for another head to build numbers. I’ve never had a group that would go to the heart of the matter and really yearn to walk with me through the joyous times as well as the tough growing moments.
I have been attending Passion City Church for almost a year. Over the course of the past year I have been blessed so dramatically by all of the amazing people here. At PCC our unfailing leaders have dedicated their entire lives to the work of Jesus Christ, our block pastors give up a whole day of every week just to spend time and deliver food to the less fortunate, the young men in the parish truly have zeal for what God is doing in this City and throughout the World, and the woman in the Church have shown me the true qualities of God fearing and gentle woman. I cannot imagine a better place to have been over the past year. This truly has been the best year of my entire life.
When I was at the front of the gathering on Sunday for my baptism I looked out at all the people; instead of seeing a bunch of people, I saw so many friends. I realized that I knew the stories of many of the people in this huge audience. To me I truly was looking out at my own family; such an amazing feeling!
God has blessed me so much through this church! I know that I will miss everyone here so very much over the next year. The beautiful thing about family is that no matter how long you have been gone they will always welcome you back with arms open wide in love.
Praise to God for all that He has done for me. I am so blessed! I pray that He will continue to pour out His blessings on my life.
