-Back ground: When my mother and father first had my brother and me they looked for a church and ended up converting to the Mormon church. They both became inactive well before I could remember.Then they got a divorce.-
My entire childhood I searched for a church that I felt was real. I went to a lot of weird churches. I knew that God was real. When I was 13 I met my now best friend Jenn. It wasn't until I was 14 that I knew she was Mormon. When I found out I basically invited myself to go to church with her. I went for a really long time. I really had looked forward to each Sunday. Then I moved away to live with my mother. It took me a month to get up the courage to find the local church in my area and attend. When I did, I started my first missionary lesson. I knew everything that they were telling me was real. It was just a matter of time before I got baptized. Again though, I moved. This time it was back to my home town, where I had first started attending church services. While I was away my father took up interest in the church again and started attending. When I came home I was ready for be baptized and excited for the day it would happen. I was baptized in the spring, when I was 15, by my father. This story is the beginning to my life's happy ending.
