Your most embarrassing moment A time when I was in year 9 and I was chasing my friends down the stairs of one of our school blocks. I fell and landed flat on my face in front of a bunch of year 10 boys...worst moment ever

Favorite Bible character and Why Mary with the alabaster box (Matthew 26:7), although she's not one of the big characters she's my favourite because I relate to her on a personal level, it was her story that drew me closer to God. I love the fact that she was not afraid to go to Christ with the little she had, she was a prostitute but she made it her mission to wash the feet of a righteous man. She went to Christ with all her sins knowing that with that single act (washing his feet), He will make her clean. Her story is a reminder that you are not too lost to be saved as long as you're willing to be saved.
