His testimony:  "Raised in a Catholic household, my earliest recollections of church and the Lord were Sunday structures, traditions, and routines. It wasn't until high school that I felt the God speaking to me. Struggling with the conviction and my own reluctance, I started to go to church with my Christian friends. I saw something in their life that was missing in mine. They weren't perfect, but they were sincerely following after God. It was in junior high that I met, Anne, but it wasn't until college that we realized God had larger plans for our life.
It wasn't until college that I accepted the Lord as my personal Savior. It is the clearest day in my memory and changed my life. I didn't live under the burden of sin and I experienced the true joy of the Lord. Since that day, my life has been transformed from a life of ambiguity to a life of purpose.  My life now consists of following the Lord in any capacity that he allows and asks, and sharing my experiences with God to all the world."
