Why I'm a Gravity Leader:  Although I believed in God when I was growing up, I did not know what it meant to be walking in a relationship with Jesus; this led to many poor decisions and difficult times. I hope to be able show kids what it means to have that relationship and help them grow in all aspects of their faith. Also, it is so much fun being a Gravity leader.  The kids are amazing and I always have a blast with them no matter what the event.
