C. S. Lewis #2
The church that I went to for most of my school years is called Central Baptist Church and it's located in Kirbyville, Tx. I made the decision, for myself, to go to church in the fifth grade. I tried a few different churches and found myself being drawn to Central in Kirbyville. I didn't know what to truly watch for in a church since I was young and church was never really a big part of my family life. The generosity and patience of the members there was so evident that I was drawn in. When I felt I was called to missions, I was offered a position on our Ukraine mission trip team. Desiring to go I knew that it would be difficult since I didn't have a way. I had no passport, no clothes suited for Ukrainian weather, and definitely no money to pay for all of it. My church family knew the situation I was in and everything was provided for me without even having to ask. Central Baptist Church in Kirbyville genuinely made me into a "little christ." They were lead by the spirit to provide ways for me to fulfill my calling in life. They continue to do things for other people and find joy in doing so. So many camp scholarships, school supplies, hot meals, transportation opportunities, and clothes are given out. Most importantly, numerous lives have not only heard the gospel, but they have seen it played out by a faithful group of Christ-followers.
