The Children
A Changed Life
My name is Sam and I am fourteen years old. When
I was six, I came to Mt. Hope Camp six months after my mother. Since being here for eight years, I have come to know
the love of Christ. I always used to go to church with my grandparents, but I never understood the depths of a relationship
with Jesus Christ. Sister Cheri, the staff, and the teachers explained this type of a relationship in a way that I could
understand it. The Lord has been faithful to keep my mom, Lori, and I in His perfect will and in a healthy relationship
together. Since I accepted the Lord into my heart I have had a changed life. Yeah, I still have my struggles just
like any other kid, but I learned to lay everything at the cross. If I had not come to the Camp, I have no idea what
I would have become. I used to work off of my mother's relationship with Christ, but I have now come to know Him
as my personal Lord and Savior. I thank God for saving me from every ungodly wrong thing that could have happened to
me.
"Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me!" Thank You God!
