I ran away from home at a very young age and got entangled in a life of rebellion, committing hurtful acts along the way. But God, in His mercy, intervened and led me to Expect Hope Bible school, which marked a profound turning point in my life. It was there that I surrendered my heart to Him and began my journey of serving the Lord. I've answered God's calling to spread the Good News, sharing His blessings by giving to others in various ways. This includes providing goods, services, and conducting feeding programs to demonstrate His love and care for those in need. I am ready now to plant a church and become a pastor. I will use the funds to help with the meeting location and equipment needed to conduct weekly church services and outreaches.
