Pride in Christ
-Diane Hegedus

Originally, my family and I are from Albania, a country in Europe. During the time my parents were growing up, there was religious anarchy, and the nation was predominantly split into two denominations, Catholic and Muslim.

My parents were more than lost when it came to what and who God was, so they decided to just believe there was a God, but not follow a particular religion.

They made an effort to have me in church every single service and to be involved in activities at church that would put me around other Christian young people.
