CASSIDY SCHAUB
I did not come to meet Christ until I was 25. I could not get my home life together with my wife and child. My wife and I ended up getting a divorce and going our separate ways. I kept attending church with my friends and family and investing time into the Bible. It was not until one Sunday that I was at church by myself and God called me to the front after to take my burden and fix my life. Since that day God has put my family back together and He has remarried my wife and I. The group my wife and I have been attending has been so good and welcoming and we wouldn’t be growing how we are without them.
