I served with ACMNP for three seasons, and each season presented new opportunities that impacted me differently. Each season pulled me out of my comfort zone making it easier for me to share Jesus with others.

My season in Acadia reminded me of my need to rely on God for strength and resilience. I’m glad I did ACMNP because it was a great way for me to begin getting ministry experience and preparing messages.

While there were challenging times, ACMNP pushed me to remember that we are God’s hands and feet. We are representatives for God in this world and people are aware of what we say and how we act. Every time I encountered people who were less than pleasant, it gave me the opportunity to be gracious, patient, kind, and embody God’s love. I got to encounter God through this beautiful world that He created!
