 Amen, Tony. We're so glad that you are here to share with us today. We understand that you have received salvation for some time now and have been serving in this church. Can you just tell us a little bit about what your life was like before Christ and how you came to know Him and started coming to Hungry Jen? Yeah, so my name is Tony. I came from a really small town in Royal City, right next to nowhere. So if you guys haven't gone there, save yourself a trip. You guys don't need to go there. I was raised in a really religious kind of Catholic upbringing, typical Mexicans. I don't want to be a Catholic on Sundays and then the rest of it would be like a little devil the rest of the time. I think a lot of people, we're just our products of our association. We are who we hang around with and I was hanging around with just people that were just kind of negative for me. It just kind of challenged me to be the person that I am now so I'm very thankful for it. But you are who you listen to and at that point you you don't catch a cold unless you're around people that are sick. And just the same way that you don't get around, you don't get around the same people that you hang around with is going to make you who you are. And I just started, I think everybody, they longed to be accepted and I was just hanging around with a bad crowd. I started doing drugs when I was like 12 years old, smoking weed every day, drinking any other day, trying to fill in that emptiness, that void in my life with just temporary things. I think a lot of people fill that with, for me it was like drugs and chasing girls, chasing the weekend and chasing all these other stuff. I think everybody deals with just because I felt that emptiness, that void. I didn't know how to fill that answer for me and I think the answer was God soon and so I always knew God was real. I just wanted a change. I wanted to do more. I wanted to, I knew there was more to life than that and I came across Hungry Generation. I was just looking for stuff up to another church to go to and it was like on a Sunday morning and I just googled like church. I found the closest one was right here and start checking a couple videos out and as soon as I walked in here it was like just different environment, just different presence. People were actually excited about their lives. It feels like everybody was like drunk or something. I was like no, everybody's just excited you know and it was a good feeling. I was like the people are crazy but I kind of liked it. I liked the environment. It was awesome. It's okay to be excited about your life and what God has planned for you. Amen. Let's put our hands together for our wonderful God. After that I've been coming here for about a year now. I've been serving the God since for about a year and he really changed me a lot. All the doubts, all the fears, everything that you're going through, he was that answer for me and he's waiting on the other side for you and willing to do that answer for you too. Amen. Let's put our hands together for our wonderful miracle working Jesus Christ. So Tony, you mentioned that before you started coming to church and really gave your life to Jesus Christ that you were into drugs and alcohol and just living a really wayward life and then a year ago when you came here to Hungary, Jen, you gave your life to Jesus Christ. How has your life been different now? Are those problems with drugs and alcohol still a problem in your life? What is different for you today? Well everything changed. All my doubts, fears and securities, everything else that all those bondages that were holding me back, I think they were just eliminated through that. It changed everything for me. I just wake up thankful every single day. I get a chance to really live my life in purpose and with intention. And so now we know that you have given your life to Christ. You've been set free from drugs and alcohol and we understand that you're going to be getting baptized this month. So can you tell us a little bit about that as well? Yeah. So I mean, I think this, I mean, like baptism, like Pastor Vlad says, it's just a confirmation for, you know, that you're making in public for what you made in private. It's just confessing it to the world how awesome it's been a change for me. So. Amen. Let's give it up for Jesus Christ. And just one more thing, Tony. What is your advice to people who might be here today who have been experiencing some of the things that you've gone through and the struggles that you've had who are here and they're looking for something more? What can you say to them to encourage them? Just take the chance. I just, you just really need to make a decision. If you really want to, bad enough, I think God knows where you're at. And he knows everything that you're going through. And he's preparing you for something great that you don't even know just yet. Everything that you're going through, he's waiting for you at the other side of that, you know. Amen. Let's put our hands together for Jesus. Thank you so much, Tony, for your wonderful testimony.
