OH MAN!!! Tonight is the greatest night I've ever had in my entire life!! It's a wednesday right?? Whats am I talking about, of course it's a Wednesday!!! Well, everyone knows what I've been doing on wednesday nights for the past month and a half- two months. I've been going to church, now if you don't go to church and you're looking for one....CENTRAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH IS THE BEST!!! If you don't go to church and have never been to one before...see above for information. I swear Central Christian is the best!! Anyway, back to the events of tonight. I was talking to Stephanie on the phone, who by the way is the greatest girl to ever step into my life. Anyway, I didn't know how I was getting to church tonight and she said she had a ride and I was welcome to ride with her, but I felt funny riding with strange people, and I used to feel funny walking into that church by myself and my mom was willing to take me so I was like but you should ride too. SO she did, and we rode to church together, and everyone knows my hang out buddy at church is always Joey, so of course I was looking for him. It took me prolly 20-30 minutes to find him, but mission accomplished! So, at church, I hung out with Joey, Stephanie, and Stephanie's cousin, Danielle. All of whom are really amazing people. So, we're in the fellowship hall where everyone was eating before worship that night and Joey was the only one eating besides Stephanie, who was juss eating/stealing Joey and this other girl's macaroni and cheese but she wasn't stealing cuz she always asked first. At any rate, they finished eating and stuff, and we headed to the thing I like to call the mini-sanctuary. That's where we proceeded to worship. During worship, there are many songs that are sang, and during one of them I believe it was the Soverign Lord, I felt this tugging to cry, but it wouldn't come out on it's own, not even if I forced it. So, I juss felt sad for a little while because I figured that's why I wanted to cry, MAN WAS I WRONG!! After the Soverign Lord, Jake played another song to which Mrs. Laurie prayed to I believe. Then after that, Mrs Laurie read out of the book of Luke, and during this reading, I started bawling like a month old baby w/o his bottle. I finally stopped, and when I did there was this guy named Ben, who had been away from the church for four months and he came back tonight and he gave his testimony about where he had been and what he was doing and what his plans are now. After that, Mrs. Laurie got up and said if anyone who has something they would like to share they mayy come up and sahre after 60 seconds of praying time. Before we began to pray, I told Joey that I was going up there and he said that he was going with me. Just like I said I would, I went up there and confessed myself to the church, I told them everything except one of the most important things, how I wasn't a virgin, it was on ym mind...like I was going to say but I guess I never got to it. After confessing myself, I got down off the stage and was walking and Joey asks me if I've ever been baptized I told him no, not really, and he said do you wanna get baptized tonight? Of course, I said,"Let's do it!" He asked Mrs. Laurie and at first she jokingly said no but it happened and it was the most glorius thing ever cuz Joey was the one who baptized me. I love him soo much!! After I got out...everyone...almost...came up and hugged me and it felt soo great inside to be accepted by all those gr8 people, and not juss those people but by God too. I feel more refreshed than anything, I feel renewed and I feel like there's soo much I have to do now to make Him happy. The best part is...I'm going to do everything in my power to do that, for the glory of God. I'm asking everyone to continue praying for me as I start my new life with God.

Love in a newly found Christ,
Nathan
