Testimony:

I was nine years old when I trusted Jesus Christ as my Savior. To this day I can still remember where I accepted Him. It was at Ross Haven Bible Camp, and the person who led me to Christ was my cabin leader whose name I cannot remember. After that, I got involved with a church program called AWANA where I was trained by many different people in the Scriptures, always following a book that the club provided. In all the time I was there, I was able to finish all of the books in the club and earn an award, yet I still felt that I did not know enough about God; so I went on my first mission trip with TMI in 2008. While on the mission field, I felt more at home than even at my real home. The next year I went again on another mission trip with TMI. This time, before leaving, I applied to the BMW program hoping learn more about God.  And now I am here at BMW doing just that.
