Most inspiring moment on team?
A kid asked if I would like him to pray for us during one of our public school ministries. I was shocked that he would offer to do so in front of all his friends, but he did I was really encouraged by that. |

How do you prepare yourself for a ministry?
|
|
Prayer, for those who are going to be watching and also for my fellow teammates as we all need our strength to come from Christ in order to be affective. Also I read scripture so that my mind is focused on God. |

How & Why did you decide to give you life back to Christ?
|
|
When I was 5 years old my mother was very involved in Vacation Bible School (VBS) at our church. She made sure that I was always there on time and had my Bible verses memorized. There was an altar call every night after the message and it was about that time that I really began to think about what Christ had done for me in my life. I went forward and received the gift of salvation. I did not live a life that was pleasing to God. At school with my friends I would say and do things that did not show the love of Christ in my life. After my family and I moved onto the mission field in Guatemala I began to see what it was all about. It took me several years to start to fully grasp what it meant to give my entire life to Christ and I am still overcoming obstacles everyday in my walk with Him. |

What aspect of the Above and Beyond life still challenges you the most?

Where do you see God calling you?
|
|
I want to do whatever God has planned for me. I would love to work in missions but I know that whatever His plan is I will do my best to live for Him in a way that others will see the love and grace that He has for us. |
|
|

What is your vision for Above and Beyond’s future?
|
|
To see the ministry to continue to grow and reach people for Christ. A&B has definitely had a positive affect on many young people’s lives and that is just an incredible thing to be able to do. I see A&B becoming a fine instrument for God to use it’s members to accomplish great things for His kingdom.
