My name is Ethan, and in the lost year, God has lifted my understandings of what other people are thinking about and how they live through every day.

In the last year, I was pretty stressed out about COVID and what my life was going to be like, but when youth opened up again I felt a calling towards youth and a sense of belonging. It brought me relief of the stress in my life, it brought me to be stronger in God, and now I feel like I finally found a space of belonging, here at Hope City Youth.
