Testimonials

Justin was sexually abused as a youth and started using to numb the pain; eventually, addiction and homelessness took over, stealing 21 years of my life. I felt lost. When I overdosed in October 2023, I asked God to help me. He told me to go to the Mission or I'm going to die. I enrolled in their Discipleship program on October 4, 2023, overcame addiction, experienced God's transformation, and graduated 2024. I've been clean over a year and dedicated to help others heal and get their life back.
