House of Promise

Each Wednesday night I go to the House of Promise through the 'Teen Challenge' program. This is a place where women with children under the age of 5 live. These women are recovering addicts or have husbands in jail, etc. They go through a one year faith-based program to get their lives back under control with the help of Jesus Christ. After their first year they can re-enter the program for another year. During this transition year, the girls live at the home but start working in the 'real world' again. These women have touched my life in an amazing way!! I am blessed by their testimonies and what God has done--changing them into beautiful women of God! (Due to confidentiality, I can not mention the women's names or their children's names)
