I grew up learning about God and Jesus Christ, when I was in high school I decided to do the spiritual work for myself to find out if God was real and if Joseph was his prophet who was called to restore the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and the fullness of the Gospel. After searching, studying, praying, and pondering I gained a spiritual and intellectual witness that they were true. After I knew that; I knew that I needed to follow God for the rest of my life, serving a mission is one of the best ways I know how to serve God, so I did, and it's the best thing I've ever done.
