Faith
I have attended First Christian Church in Greeneville Tennessee since I was in the 6th grade. While attending this church God has led me on many journeys and put people in my life that I can never thank him enough for. With my church I have done many community service projects and other trips. I attend Tennessee Christian Teen Convention, TCTC, in Gatlinburg every year. This convention brings many of Jesus' young followers together and helps me to give thanks to him. I attended a Mission Trip to Puerto Rico last summer with my youth pastor and 4 others from my youth group. On this trip we painted and helped to build a new school for under privileged children. Also, we spent time everyday playing with children in foster care. This trip was a way for God to show me how good my life is.
