Personal Statement
I dream of having strong moral character. Most people would say they want to be successful in their job, make a lot of money, or be an outstanding athlete. I think that all of those things would be nice, but not as nice as being comfortable with myself and with my relationship with God. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS or Mormons) and I try to be faithful to the standards of my church. One of my goals, contributed to by my membership in the LDS church, is to serve a full-time mission. This means that I will spend two years after high school spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. I would however, still like to compete at the next level, and I am not afraid of putting in the hard work to get there, even if I devote two years to my church.
