About faithfull4him

My name is Christina Rivas. I am a child of God. In the end, it will not matter how much money I made, how many children I had, what I did for a living, or in how many ministries I served. What matters most in life is how I live each day for God. I am a Navy wife, currently stationed in Erie, PA. I am originally from San Diego, CA. My husband has been in the military for 12 years and counting as a hospital corpsman. My husband and I grew up attending Calvary Chapel of El Cajon, but we now attend Grace Church in McKean, PA. I enjoy writing, card making, swimming, biking, hiking, traveling, and exploring the Great Outdoors in my spare time.
