I was once a kid that was mean and cruel to others, because I was really calling out for help. When I was kicked out of Tipton Middle School in March, on Friday the thirteenth, I had hit rock bottom.
When I came to Hinkle the Sunday after being out, I was still angry. However, I felt something in that church. It wasn't until the very next Sunday that I accepted it. I talked to Bob and Paulette after the service, and they prayed with me, and talked me through my trouble. I was saved that instant!
I started to come to church regularly, and became hapier and hapier every time! I even started to bring some of my family with me.
When I joined Hinkle on May 3, 2009, I realized that this is a group I can belong to and always have someone with me. I realized that I won't be hurt or let down at that church. Later that afternoon, I was baptized. I felt like that day was the big turn around in my life.
Throughout my walk with Christ, Bob and Paulette, and even the church has been there to help me. They have even found me a new school which I started attending back in April. I am now going to Sheridan christian Academy. I thank you guys for that. I LOVE YOU!
Last Saturday at my school's banquette, my family saw a big achievment. When I was at Tipton my grades were just above failing if not there. At Sheridan I recieved the A honor roll.
Also, I have been going to SCA for only six weeks now, and I take every opportunity to study God that I can. Ieven study during our breaks. I didn't think that anyone would notice it, but they did. At the banquette, I recieved the highest award of all. It was for Christian Character.
From then on I have continued to love Christ and study him. I have vowed to myself that I will never miss a Sunday at Hinkle!
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!
I THANK YOU!
