Tonya's Baptism Story

After years of praying and sharing her faith with her mom, Destiney baptized her mom on Sunday, Oct 11th. Read Tonya’s baptism story in her own words. 

“As a child I had no direction in life, I was unsure of the path to take, or what my future would look like. Up until now I've made many bad decisions, I continually have taken the wrong path. I felt like I had nobody. At a young age I had my daughter, and she has been like a guardian angel to me. She taught me that I do have somebody other than her, and it's God. I started to go to church with her and it made me realize that God is here for me, that God is looking after me. I started praying to God every morning.

Ever since I started going to church and praying to God I have felt hope in my life and belief in myself. I've also felt peace and joy. I now believe in Jesus, and know that God loves me and will keep me strong and help me to live a better life. Thank you God for being in my life and helping me feel hopeful and to have faith. Thank you for praying for me, I am one.
