About Me

I come from a Fantastic Christian Family of six, and I thank God everyday for all he has blessed me with in this great adventure called life. I am an Affordable Independent DJ (weddings/parties). I am a drummer looking for the right worship band for me(sound like Hillsong United). I like to hike, swim, rockjump into rivers, dance, sing, act funny, build projects with wood (it use to be Lego's, but I've upgraded), playing vigorous sports (hockey,soccer,ultimate frisbee,football,extreme inline skating, bicycling and freez tag at night with glow sticks). I love spending time with family and friends playing games, BBQ-ing, visiting, watching movies, bowling, karaoke, dancing, and most of all Worshiping God my Heavenly father "Jesus Christ".

My Interests

-------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------ I love spending good quality time with friends and family. DJ'ing parties, Dancing, helping friends get togther, have a good time together and building strong relationships. Making my place look good. Playing Drums, Worshiping God, Home Cooking(eating it), Subway, FreshMex, and listening to good tunes. Playing soccer, volleyball, hockey(Ice&Street), flag football, capture the flag outside at night, LadderBall, swimming, body surfing at the beach, wakeboarding, rollerblading(Xtream sk8ing), hiking, and Rock jumping(HappyValley). I would like to try wind/kite surfing and riding a horse. I also enjoy Selling stuff on Ebay or Craigslist. My Goals for work as of right now: I would like to Dj three jobs per month, I am learning many trades on the job working as a handymans helper during the week. Someday I would like to eventually be good enough at both drumming and swing dancing to teach classes. These are all still underconstruction, and I realy think I will be able to accomplish all these goals. Goals for Family : I plan on getting married someday (Lord willing soon) to the love of my life (the woman God has chosen for me) and providing for my family but somthing even beter, spending time with them, raising them using Gods word as our instruction manual to life. Buying a home without debt and being happy in life Lord willing. And I pray I hear him clearly and do his will always.Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future".

I'd like to meet:

my Saviour and Lord God Jesus Christ who died on the cross for my sins as well as yours. He loves you, just open the door to him. I have a personal relationship with him. And my Loving Wife to enjoy my whole life with. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.Love never fails1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.I know God has someone perfect and special out there for me, and I'm praying for her daily. --------------------------------------------------------- FROM INSIDE OUT - HILLSONG UNITED

Television:

I Don't make time to watch any tv other than Joel Osteen on sunday mornings before church and Joyce Meyers every weekday morning. I like Movies. Shows nowdays are like a long movie and you can't miss any shows else your lost. To much comitment for me to a T.V.(if its worth watching I'll wait to rent it on dvd, but that would be rare since I haven't had time for it). "Unless I need a break from life I would rather live my life than watch others live theirs". I only enjoy watching TV or movies with friends or family. I would like to catch up on Smallville & Prison Break someday though.

Books:

The Bible (realy, it talks about everything I need to know about in life), Every Young Man's Battle (every guy should read this, it will change your life for the better for God's Kingdom as it has changed mine), Fit to be Tied, Preparing for Marriage, The Five Love Languages, Finding Your Million Dollar Mate, and more Books on relationships and Marriage still to read. Knowlege I will need my whole life. I am excited about what God has in my future.

Heroes:

my heavenly father JESUS CHRIST (GOD), their are no words great enough to describe him, he is God of all. -----------------------------
