I’m really happy to have found this site! I’m Josie, 40 years young, and a lot can be read on the “about me” section. But to flesh that out a little more, I was raised in a GARBC Baptist church but felt more connected to my grandparents’ independent Baptist church home. I went on missions trips to Mexico with them and to summer camp at the Bill Rice Ranch one summer. Later, I attended Bible College when it was Heritage Baptist University in a suburb of Indianapolis, Indiana.
Life has taken an “interesting” series of twists and turns that has led me to living all across the country and overseas in the Middle East. In my quest to make my faith fully my own, I also converted to Roman Catholicism in my young adulthood and later to Eastern Orthodoxy. Seven years ago, I returned to the United States and to Michigan and a year and a half ago, even though I was saved at a young age, finally accepted the full beauty of God’s grace and the simplicity of that expression by returning to my Baptist roots.
Nowadays, I spend most of my time as a postal clerk. I work most Sundays, though we are closed to the public, and I am praying for an opportunity to spend more time with my church family, worshipping the Lord together, and to be more involved, especially with ministry. Nevertheless, I am grateful for the everyday moments where I can be a blessing to others, demonstrating God’s grace and love to my coworkers, supervisors, and service to my customers. There are so many opportunities! There are so many hurting hearts. My daily prayer is that God might allow others to see Him through me and that they might come to know Him.
