Here’s how I gave my life to Christ…
I prayed a scripted prayer when I was 5, I am sure I meant it but I don’t remember it at all. I truly gave my life to Jesus when I was a freshman in High School because I was sick of trying to make life work on my own and I realized nothing could make me whole or forgiven but Jesus.

What are your hopes and dreams for the areas of ministry you lead at Disciples Church?
I hope and dream that 10 years from now when surveying random people in the community regarding what they would think if Disciples Church vanished, they would respond with: “I met Christ in that community. I don’t know what we would do without that church…it makes such a huge difference in our lives and the life of Folsom.”
