Walking With Christ - Travis
“This is a place that changes people's lives, I know that it changed mine,” Travis explained. “It gives you time to become a better person and I learned a lot about myself and about who I truly want to be in life.”
Travis graduated from Appling County High School. After graduation Travis plans to attend Coastal Pines Technical College to pursue a degree in engineering so that he can ultimately become a structural engineer.
“I enjoyed my art appreciation class in school and I’ve learned a lot about different styles and structures so that has made me really interested in pursuing an engineering degree,” Travis said.
Aside from studying and going to school, Travis enjoys hanging out with friends, learning new things, and playing basketball. Recently he has taken up fishing and has started to love that as well.
Throughout his time at the Children’s Home, Travis explained that staff members have impacted his journey greatly.
“A lot of staff have encouraged me since I’ve been at the Children’s Home but Mrs. Kim helped me to understand life and that seeing the bigger picture while having a good positive attitude to better my character will take me far,” Travis said. “She has helped me to strive to be the best version of myself.”
Travis is always looking for new things to learn and ways to better himself. He found this to be true in his walk with Christ.
“I always believed in God but I didn’t take it as seriously as I do now,” Travis explained. “My Nana (his grandmother) was always trying to take me to church and I see the importance in it now through reading my Bible and creating a relationship with God.”
Travis is excited about what his future holds and attributes his success to GBCH&FM and its staff.
“This is a place that changes people's lives, I know that it changed mine,” Travis explained. “It gives you time to become a better person and I learned a lot about myself and about who I truly want to be in life.”
