The CUWAA Student Ambassadors for the 2022 LCMS Youth Gathering had the opportunity to share their faith stories with thousands of high schoolers in Houston.
Everyone has a story to tell. Sadly, these stories are often mired with brokenness and sin. Thankfully though, Christ’s story is also our story. He died so that our sins might be covered and our endings rewritten. So no matter what hurts or hurdles we’ve experienced in our lives, we, His chosen, can have peace that we are written in the Book of Life.
Concordia’s 2022 Student Ambassadors for the LCMS Youth Gathering haven’t always had easy stories. However, each will also share that they’re thankful for the gift of faith that was started in them from a young age, the community of believers they are currently a part of at Concordia, and the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in their lives.
Adam Urban, Lily Adam, Cody Wallis, and Grace Hedtke had the opportunity to share a bit of their stories with thousands of high schoolers this week. Here are their testimonies.
