My name is Katie West and I am from Tuscaloosa, AL but I live in Montgomery, AL now.  I moved to Montgomery to go to college at Huntingdon College where I played tennis all four years GO HAWKS!!!  I have a wonderful and supportive family that I love so much.  My mom is pretty much amazing, she is so supportive of all the things that I do and she knows that it will all work out in the end for me.  My sister is completely level headed, and I love that about her.  Clint, my stepdad but I am not crazy about that title because he has been like a dad to me, is so awesome and the coolest guy I know.  My aunt and uncle are like my second set of parents and they are so full of love. 

   I love kids!! My favorite color is green. I love my cat Margo. My favorite super hero is Super Man. I love to sing (although those who hear would rather I not). I LOVE MUSIC!!!  As soon as I hear music I begin to dance.  I love reading.   I have amazing friends and I love doing just about anything with them!  I love the beach and the lake, basically anything with water. I like to eat at Chick-fil-a.  And I am head over heels in love with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
   I grew up in a very loving home but not necessarily a Christian one.  But when I was a junior in college I realized that I needed a relationship with the Lord.  God showed me what a Christ-follower actually looked like through different ministries and people he perfectly placed in my life. I now am proud and glad to say that I am a D.O.R.K (Daughter Of the Risen King).  My faith has faultered at time but my God has been my rock and I can hold tight to his unfailing love and grace. It is through this saving grace that God has called me into a life of ministry. He has filled my life with such happiness that I can’t help but desire to pass on the good news that comes only through Christ Jesus. Matthew 28:19 “Go and make disciples of all nations…” pretty much sums up my call to and my excitement for the World Race!
