An SU holiday helped me become a confident Christian

Story type:

Every year, through our holidays and missions, children and young people grow in their faith.James shares how he came to know God, and made friends for life.

I started out as a kid, uneducated and naive in the world of God and Christianity. I came to Ka’zoo hoping to make new friends and I have made so many friends for life, with brotherly bonds that you won’t make anywhere else. I’ve come to know God because of Ka’zoo.

I have loved the testimonies where the leader’s wisdom and experience have taught me so much; I have adored every worship session and chanting endlessly until I lost my voice.

So forget all of the silly stuff, this is just to say a massive thank you to all leaders on the team, for changing my life with God.

I hope to be back next year on the junior team because I have grown so much in my faith, but I will have to wait and see what God has in store for me.

"From the bottom of my heart, I believe that without the wonderful team of leaders, old and young, I would not be a confident Christian. I am so thankful for the sacrifices and unchanging determination of the Ka’zoo team and I will remember these days for the rest of my life." James
