MY STORY
Diana Albano
I grew up in a Catholic home, both of my parents were Catholic. I went to church every Sunday and attended CCD (Sunday school). I was baptized as a baby, completed my Holy Communion and Confirmation. After completing my Confirmation I volunteered most of my high school years teaching 1st grade about God.
Growing up in a Catholic Church, it was hard to understand. A lot of time, I really did not want to go to church. It was difficult for me to build an understanding in the Catholic faith. I still attended and had a decent relationship with God.
When I was 17 I became very distant from God. I practically didn't have a relationship with Him at all. It was not until I was 19 I realized I needed God in my life. I went through an experience I thought I'd never have to go through.
I remember crying out and asking God to forgive me since I grew so far from Him and for the sins I have committed along the way. I told Him I needed Him in my life. I felt ashamed and embarrassed. I promised Him I will start building our relationship and attend church.
If it was not for that situation, I would of never known the power of needing God in your life. I am grateful for Sis Preach It because it allows me to be vulnerable and honest with all of you of my walk with Christ.
Since then, I committed myself to never miss a Sunday.
I have seen God's work work miracles in my life.
In 2018, I was baptized.
I gained so many new friendships that I am so blessed to have.
