Hi I'm Garret
I am from Snowflake Arizona, I all-stared in football and I am a Mormon.
About Me
My name is garret but i am commonly known as bear. I have three sisters, one brother, one dog, and two loving parents. I am an athlete who likes to play football, baseball, run track, wrestle, and freeride motocross. The sport i put most my time in effort in is football. My sophmore year i was 165 pounds and my coaches put me on the defensive line (moslty as an experiement). Well apparently i was good, cause i started there ever since. My senior year at 185 pounds (still light for a varsily lineman) i got first team all state and first team all-star for the all star game. Now i am on a two year mission and when I return I intend to play football in college.
Why I am a Mormon
I am a mormon because it truelly makes happy. This gospel centered around christ which is how it is suppose to be. I know that i can be with my family forever and that gives me much peace and joy. I love my family, they help me develop christ like attributes and i want nothing more then to be with them forever. I was raised LDS but that is not the reason i am a mormon. I have developed my own testimony of this gospel through much prayer and reading of the Bible and Book of Mormon. I know my heavenly father loves me and knows me more then i know me and wants nothing more then me to be happy.
How I live my faith
I attend my church meetings on sundays to learn more about christ and his teachings. I aslo go to service projects with other people from the church in the community for people in need. I set a good example to other people around me by being respectful to others and doing simple acts of kindness. As of right now, I am serving a mission to help people to come closer with christ and have a better relationship with their father in heaven.
