HER PASSION According to Wikipedia, "passion" is descibed as feeling very strong about a subject or a person. With that being said, as a Christian, I am passionate about my love for Christ and my desire for my friends and family to have an intimate relationship with Him. I am passionate about my husband and marriage. We work hard to consistenly grow our relationship and home with Christ at the center. A mother bear is harbored within me in regards to my strong feelings about my two little boys--I do believe that I would fight to my death over their safety and well-being--is that passionate enough? The Lord has blessed with me with wonderful family and friends--I strive to be the best daughter, sister, aunt, and friend that I can be--in order to protect these precious blessings! And finally, I am passionate about children and young people in general--I always have been. I feel strongly that being an adolescent is by far one of the most difficult periods in one's life. It is vital to teach our youth the importance of a relationship with Christ as well as provide them the tools within which to make this relationship possible. I strive to be a listening ear and enjoy each moment that I get to spend amongst teenagers--teens are such neat people! After considering passion and the areas in my life where I am most passionate, I am brought to the realization that I am a passionate person, period! I love life, I love people, and I love Jesus! THE FUTURE Right now, for the first time in a long time, I am living in the moment or the near future. The near future holds being a mom and wife...raising my children and loving my husband! It also holds a great deal of changes within my work environment. And, one day, I would like to take the time to complete my Master's or pursue more education... HER FAMILY I have been married to my husband, Justin, for almost 5 years. We have two precious boys--Ben, 3 and Will, 10 months. My parents and sister live in Jacksonville (where I was raised) while my husband's family is from Micanopy. We have an American Bulldog named Scarlette and Ben has 3 fish. Locally, we love spending time with our church family at FBCA.

HIS PASSION To have a servant heart. I know that may sound a little overused but, it truly is what I try to live my life by. I am not always perfect at it, however placing others above myself honestly brings me true joy. THE FUTURE If you know....please let me in on the secret....but I hope it has to do with serving other people. HIS FAMILY I come from a Traditional Italian family that immigrated from Italy in the 1950's. They are hard working, honest folks...but pretty crazy. I get my work ethic and faith from them...but also my self-diagnosed ADD :)
