My family didn't go to church. It really was just that simple. We prayed before dinner. The same prayer, every night. "Dear God...thanks for the food we are about to receive...Amen." Every night.
I wasn't really like my friends in high school. I didn't drink. I didn't have sex. The majority of my Friday and Saturday nights were spent at home. Bah.
I joined this club at school, FCCLA. I met a girl name Kelly and we became quick friends. (I met her cuz I bought Skittles and Combos, Relient K loves them!) Anyways...she invited me to stay at her house one Saturday. We went to church the next day.
Everyone there was really nice. I felt right at home. The youth pastor asked me if I was going ot go on a retriet with the church. I said no, I didn't have the money. Jeff paid for me to go.
At the retriet, Joel Ingel spoke about how God is the Father he never had. I felt so touched...It all made sense. I was saved the day after I turned 18. April 1, 2005.
