Chandler First Assembly of God
Moving to Arizona, my family and I needed to find a new church. My dad was a youth pastor and was hired at Chandler First full time. We remained there till 2009. -
Fisrt Day of School
I started my first day of school immediately after I tuned five because my mom didn't want to hold me back. It ws my first time riding the bus, so my mom was with me at the bus stop. I was a life-altering experience from the start, and it all happened at Greenield Elementary ( home of the Gators)! -
Stitches
I was at church on a Wednesday night playing with my friend Hunter, outside. I was running and tripped, then fell through a window in the building in front of me. I had to receive 16 stitches in my left arm. -
Scorpion Sting
I was at my Pastor's house for a BBQ and a pool party. I was with my friend Connor in the pool and I decided to get into the hot tub, when a scorpion stung me from underwater. I was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance, due to the fact that I'm allergic to scorpion poison. -
Apache Junction First Assembly of God
My father felt it was time to move on to a different church. So he decided to become a full time head pastor of AJ First. I met so many good people and friends. We have grown tremendously, and continue to do so to this day. -
My Best Friend
I met my best friend of six years, Isabella Ribaudo, when we joined AJ First. I met her the sunday we started there, but we became friends the following wednesday when we were in the same class for Missionetttes at church. She is someone that I can count on for anything and I don't know what I would do without her. -
Grandpa's Death
My grandpa had been sick for a very long time. He had gone through so much, but had been starting to get better. Then he unexpectedly caught a serious illness and slipped into a coma. He was on life support, but then we took him off of it because we knew it was time to let him go. -
The Cats
We got our cats Samuel and Sara because of a friend from our church, who tipped us off that her friend was giving them away. Sara and Samuel are rambunctious siblings who are always keeping us on our toes. We love them so much though, and our family wouldn't be the same without them. -
Changing Myself
My life was changed in the summer between my ninth and tenth grade year. I was in a bad place with battling depression, and just being around the wrong environement completely. I went to my church camp that summer and was re-saved and have been on a blessed track ever since. -
Primavera Online High School
I joined Primavera to get away from all the disturbing things surrounding me at public school. I had been having trouble socially with past friends and people who I'd had problems with. Primavera was a new start to getting a better, healthy education.
