    First of all I want to say,” To God be he Glory” for giving me knowledge to believe that a better day is possible as well as vision of a new day. My name is Michael Jubiter, I live in Minneapolis MN. and I am ready to move on in my life. I am from Chicago IL. and had so many problems in my life due to seeking a lesser god via way of drugs an well as mis-management of ones life. Today I don’t no longer see the glass as half empty, I see it with optimistic eyes as if the glass is half full.
    Within the next two years I will be ready to move, if it is God’s Will I will have obtain my A.A. in Community Development. Here as well as home if you have a criminal background jobs at so hard to get regardless of the fact that you have change your life and yes I know we have to try harder the other people but I want to go to the Washington D.C. .There I may have a better chance seeing that the person who interview me may have someone who have had the same problems in front of him or her inside of their family. We as African Americans share the same problems all over the world. Here at school there is a brother from D.C. who talks all the time about your church and all that your church means to the community. I want to start a relationship with you while asking for help as I prepare to move and become a member of Metropolitan. Here in Minneapolis I have went to a African Methodist Episcopal Church here and did very much enjoy it and looking forward to joining it as well as one day becoming a member of your one day in the future. Please say in contact.
    God Bless you.
    Michael Jubiter
