Accomplishments

Before coming to the Hope Center Ministries on January 12th, 2022, I was lost. After I learned what it means to be a true believer of Christ, my life has not been the same. I successfully completed the program. I've successfully completed probation. I am now active in my sons life. I've been free from addiction for 27 months now. I've been blessed with the opportunity to be involved with HCM residents. These are just a hand full of the many blessing placed on my life. I give all the glory to God because without him in my life I wouldn't be here!

Calling

To me this is not just a 9 to 5 for a check. For me this position would be a lifestyle choice. I'm called to help pull people out of the trenches that I was once in. My heart longs for this. I want to show the love of Jesus that is showed to me. One of the greatest feelings is seeing somebody that the world condemned being touched by Jesus and their life changed, and I want to help the Lord anyway I can. I am about my Father's Business!!!!!!
