I was born into a wonderful Christian family, with a mother and father that loves God. Soon I had a baby brother.

My God Journey starts when I was three. Well I don’t remember when I was three but my parents have told me that I told them that I wanted Jesus in my heart. The first time I remember going to church was when I was really young. I went to kid’s church. I thought actual church was the most boring thing I’d ever experienced in my life! I lived in England. They sang hymns. The pastor had a drowsy voice and I can’t even remember how many times I’d fallen asleep.

We left that church when we went traveling for a year around the world. We went to Florida and we went to this amazing church, where I saw the kindness and joy of God oozing through the people there. They were so friendly and fun, and I couldn’t believe that this church was playing games and having puppet shows about God. I thought it was the coolest thing I’d ever seen. I loved it so much. I was really upset when we had to leave. To think of going back to my old church was like a nightmare.

We got back to England and couldn’t face going back to church. So we didn’t. We didn’t go to church for about 2-3 years. I didn’t have any sort of relationship with God. I didn’t pray. Or read the bible. Or anything.

About three years later, I moved to Australia. We went firstly to the Gold Coast. I fell in love with it! It was like heaven on Earth. We found the most amazing church, Generation Church. And 3 months later, when we decided to live on the Gold coast, I made Geno my home, my family. I started going to the youth. Met my best friend Kirtsy, who introduced me to my other best friend Chlo. And I met the person who has helped me most, the most amazing leader, Sam.

Since going to youth I have started becoming more and more involved, I now am in charge of events at youth. I have become a leader at kids. And have made so many friendships. I’m so excited about my future. And God has shown me some amazing plans that he has for my life.
