Children’s Ministry Intern

What year did you start working at First Baptist?  
2009  

Tell us how you came to know Christ:    
I grew up in a Christian family.  My Granddaddy was a pastor when I was a small child.  Along with my parents, my grandparents would teach me about God, Jesus, and the stories of the Bible.  Leading up to Easter my 1st grade Sunday school class was talking about how God loved me so much that he sent his only son.  That afternoon my family gathered together for our regular family Sunday supper, and I told them that I love Jesus and was thankful for him coming here so that I can be with God.  After supper my parents and grandparents began to ask me  questions, and that afternoon I asked Jesus into my heart.

What’s your favorite thing about your job?  
Working with the Children, and watching them praise God in their own ways.  

What’s your favorite Bible verse currently?  
Philippians 4:13  “I can do everything through him who gives me strength.”  

What do you feel like God is teaching you lately?  
That I should turn over all my concerns and worries to him.

What are your hobbies?
Playing Sports and Guitar

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up and why?  
A Fireman, I thought it would be cool to dress up in those awesome uniforms and save people like a super hero.  

Tell us a bit about your family?
I come from a very spiritual family.  My Father is a pastor of a Church in the big town of Gun Barrel City, my mother is a teacher, and my brother is a student in college.  We have family Backgammon tournaments, and eat a lot of Armenian food.

What’s your favorite meal and who would be attending?  
My favorite meal would have to be rice pilaf and macaroni and cheese.  I know its not a conventional, but its so GOOD!!  

Tell us a little known fact about yourself:  
I love sports of any kind.  

Why should someone get involved at First Baptist Church Arlington?  
The people at First Baptist Arlington, staff and members, are some of the best in the metroplex in my opinion.  They have a caring heart and do well to support each other.  This is a great place for people of all ages to be and fellowship with others.
