At Wooster Grace, we're constantly amazed by all the stories of life change coming from people who are experiencing God in their own lives. Check back here often to read new stories of people being developed into fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
By God’s GRACE, I was raised in a Christian home. I attended church services and Sunday School on a fairly regular basis and was exposed to the stories of Jesus and the Bible at a very early age. Little did I know, Christ was beginning to develop and lay the foundation of a personal relationship with Him.
I started attending Wooster Grace 26 years ago. Before fully understanding what a true personal relationship with Jesus Christ meant, I thought that if I lived a life of just being good-to-people, go to church and “sometimes” read the Bible, I would be accepted by Him and everything would be OK between us.
I was encouraged to trust in Jesus Christ to be the leader my life at Wooster Grace through Student Ministries. I realized that the only way to enter into a “perfect” Heaven with Him is accepting only HIM as my personal Savior. I desired that “one-on-one” personal relationship, and I accepted Jesus to come into my heart and be the leader of my life 26 years ago.
Even though my decision to follow Christ was many years ago, I did not develop and mature into a fully devoted follower of Christ until after my college years. This personal decision has changed my “Family Tree” forever. I know full well that date in my life has had a direct impact on my family and, God willing, my daughter’s family and future family generations to come.
I am still encouraged every time I walk through these doors knowing that this church is going to preach the TRUTH. I have been and will be touched with Christ’s love through friendships, small groups and serving others here at Grace.
