I’m Scott , I was born in Kingsport, Tennessee. I lived in Tennessee until eight years ago when my parents moved to Georgia. I still visit Tennessee often because that is where I grew up and I still consider it home because that is where all of family still lives. I enjoy going back because it brings back memories of my childhood . I started going to church right after I was born, it was a small Freewill Baptist Church that my Dad attended when he was growing up. Other members of my family attended the same church, very special people, my Grandfather and my Aunt and Uncle. I loved going to Sunday School and attending Vacation Bible School. I was saved when I was 10 at Vacation Bible School. Every summer my sister Kara and I could not wait to go to Bible School, we went to everyone that we could. When I became a teenager I continued going to church attending every youth group activity that I could at Towering Oaks Baptist Church. I went to Mexico twice with my church for mission work, I went to Kentucky for mission work and I also did community mission work. My friends have been very big influences in my church life. Brent, Jason, Tamara and Brandon went into ministry, Brad is a teacher and Nate is a banker. Even though we have grown up and we are now adults we still keep in touch and we all still attend church.
My reason to go into the mission field was support from friends, support from my church and my love for God! Since I have moved to Georgia I have found a great church, great friends and the AIM Program. After many long talks and long walks with Kelley, a friend who has also served on the mission field in South Africa, my interest continued to grow about going into missions. So here we are I am finally going on the world race and I am so excitied to go to these countries and see how God will change me and how I can help to change people with his grace.
