My Testimony


Hey there, my name is Matt Faillace and I was lucky enough to be born into a Christian family and raised in a Christian household my entire life.  I was around 8 years old when I first realized what the pastor and my Bible teachers trying to explain to me.  I accepted Jesus Christ at 8 years old, but I never really understood what it was that I was actually doing. It took a few more years and some time for my thinking and understanding to expand until I actually got a firm grasp on what it actually meant to be a Christian. Even though I had grown up my entire life with my parents feeding me Bible verses for breakfast, I was about 15 when I actually got serious about Christianity. I realized that there are people out in the world who don’t have the same priviledge of growing up Christian like me and that I needed to reach out to those people.  It’s so easy to become complacent in our Christian lives especially surrounded by many other Christians. Once you break out of the “Christian Bubble” you can really see how many people are hurting and need something more in their lives. We are here on this earth to show those people the only true way to fill that void, Jesus.
