Occupation: Construction Worker

      I was saved when I was six or seven years old.  It was a Sunday night after church, and we had watched a movie about hell.  It scared me, and I knew that I was going there, but I didn't want to.   When we got home, I asked my mom how to stay out of hell.  After talking to her for a while, we knelt at the corner of my bed, and I asked Jesus to come into my heart, and I've been saved ever since.  I didn't get baptized right away, though.   At the time, I didn't know that I should get baptized right away.  After a while, this turned into pride, and I just didn't want to go forward to get baptized.   I finally surrendered to baptism on April 9, 2000.
