My brother.....A Firefighter


I'm a VERY proud sister of my brother, Christian Stephenson. He started the fire academy yesterday. Christian is a go-getter, determined, hard worker and puts his 100% effort into everything. He has become such an amazing man of God and it brings me so much joy. He has a strong relationship with Jesus, an awesome girlfriend, and loves his family.  He finished his AS in firefighting and has been an EMT for a Year. He started applying to different places for the fire academy and the station in Richardson, Texas called him. He flew out there and took a test and they called him back to come take the physical test, and several other tests. He made it to the two interviews and he said they went great. He flew back to California and while he was visiting Texas for Christmas they called him back and he made it in! He was only one of twelve men who made it to the academy, a 2% chance of making it and my brother, Christian Stephenson, did it!!!!
I'm so very proud of him! He started the firefighter academy yesterday and goes for 18 weeks. I pray I'll be able to go to his graduation! 
My brother is now a resident of Texas and soon to be firefighter.
