Testimony: I grew up going to church on Sundays, but I didn’t have much knowledge of who God really was or that I could have a personal relationship with him. I really began seeking to know God more and reading my Bible after my dad died in a plane crash and I needed comfort and answers from God’s word. My life was completely transformed by knowing a deeper relationship with Christ, and living under His word. I have been working as a disaster response nurse since 2010 and that has drastically changed my perspective and passion. I’ve come to know a bigger God as I trust him in hard times while seeing great suffering in the world. Working at South has also been a blessing as I labor side by side with staff that is passionate about helping others grow in their faith and learn more about who Jesus is.
