How Acteens has changed my lfie!

Acteens has changed my life in many ways. I started Acteens almost four years ago. When I started it was time for my group to start fundraising for Blume. During that time I learned that I can do things that I never thought I could do. I have made great friends and became closer to the Lord through Acteens. I have been able to learn more about how to further grow as a young lady in Christ. I get to teach and see my sister and their friends grow in Christ and help them do more in missions. I have became more mission oriented. I have started doing more with the WMU group at my church, and being more involved in what they do. I try to do everything I can to help someone in need. One thing I have become super focused on is doing more missions involving the youth in my church. I started looking for things we could do. I found Nickels for Nets. We had a great time collecting money and were very proud of the response and support that we got from our church. I wanted something else to do and get even more people involved this time so I started looking again. A couple months later I got a catalog in the mail from Samaritans Purse, I started looking through it and I found a new project for us. We are going to start fundraising in a couple weeks, and I cannot wait to see how it turns out. Acteens has given me the fire to want to take this and run with it. Acteens has changed my life in too many ways to count.
