She has also volunteered in her church nursery and tutored kids from downtown throughout high school. Lydia enjoys playing piano and violin and hopes to continue playing for fun at Union University. Her favorite Bible verse is Matthew 19:26: “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’”
