Pleased To Meet You: DeVonte Johnson
FPCG Member Spotlight
If you are a long time member of First Church you will remember seeing DJ as a small child walking into church holding the hand of his godmother, Contina Lundy.
DJ lives with his mother, Terry, across the street from the Lundy’s. He tells me they are his second family.
Now we see DJ as a young man of 17 years, enjoying his life and making plans for his future. We will always know him by his warm and engaging smile.
DJ attends Sunday School and is active in the youth group and is also a 7 year member of the FPCG drill team and drum corps that is now known as Germantown Exclusive. He plays the snare drum and has taught this skill to others.
DJ began singing with the Keystone State Boychoir when he was 8 years old. He is now a Graduate and has enjoyed the music and travel to South America, Southeast Asia, Antarctica and Australia.Now in the 11th grade at the Gospel of Grace Christian School, DeVonte is a good student who participates in sports. He plays quarterback on the football team and point guard for the basketball squad which won second place in a competition. Dj hopes to matriculate in West Virginia University and study Criminal Justice. His goal is to protect and defend innocent people.
Through his experiences and the Christian Education he has received here DJ plans to become a member of the congregation. He also wants us to know that he especially values the friendship and mentoring of Jack Asher and the Reverend Kevin Porter.
