Hey everyone, this is Tucson, your Vice-Facilitator and I just wanted to write a little about myself for those of you who don’t know me. Most people call me “Tuc” so feel free to call me that too. I have no idea why but some of the agape people also like to call me Emperor Tucson. I don’t know why I’m called that either but I guess you can call me that too. I was brought to God and the church at the age of 5 and I accepted Jesus as my savior at the age of 9. But growing up in a church with only one other youth I could talk to, I didn’t fully understand God, even with Sunday School. I went through middle school a “closeted” Christian since I didn’t know anyone that was Christian, I wanted to fit in by being “nothing” or atheist in technical terms. I still believed in God on Sunday, but during the week, I was a little wilder. I wasn’t out drinking, doing drugs and other stuff like that but not everything I did was Christian. But God still had my back and when I came to Lowell, I met Stanford through my Modern World class. He invited me to come to Agape and after he asked me a few times, I said to myself, “Sure. This might be fun. I could make some new Christian friends.” So I went. The second the lights went out and the first note hit on the first song, I felt comfortable, warm, happy, and at home. God was working through Stanford and brought me back on the path of Christianity. Another example of God’s amazing love happened to me over the summer. I was dangerously close to falling completely off the path again but I decided to try to find a safety line. I asked a fellow Christian for help and through God’s grace, he caught me before I fell completely off the edge of the path and into the fiery waters of the devil. I admit that, like everyone else, I still slip sometimes, but I know that I can rely on my Christian brothers and sisters for help. I am grateful that God showed me the way back on to the path and I want to encourage everybody to find help and to give help so that we can support each other on the way to eternity with God. Before I end my testimony, which turned into a ramble I would like to share some words from the bible. But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of knowledge of Him in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14
