Thank you but some of these women are even into their 30s and up. Most are 20+ they are not ready for all this before that time. We give a scholarship each year and that is a golden goodie. I mean after each session... 3 months.

I hope I am such a vessel. God called me to this. I am expecting Him to prepare me for it.

It truly is. They have to know you have nothing to gain by caring about them. They have been a commodity to this point.

Good work Justi
If you can bring some shine into their lives and light and love. Hashem has ways and means to heal and if you are such a vessel for the addicts and the abused it is good.

Justi - How awesome. You have captured the whole scene so vividly and in all that tragedies, healing sometimes takes a lifetime. It is really hard to trust after abuse.I just loved this!!!

It is really high. We usually began with about 20 they drop down to 12 who are really serious and seven of them make it. This is God's program. It is not I who brings them in except as a vessel for God to use. Thanks for reading.

Mainly with the word of God. I also work on behavioral changes in all facets of their lives. They stopped growing when they became addicted, they have to recollect that time and change the habits of the roots to grow new foliage in life.

God has blessed me to give me this calling at all. He brings His word and I convey it. The Holy Spirit moves on them and they accept and grow praise God.

You and I both know it is not I who makes the difference in them it is Jesus. He has done wonders in many recoveries as well but that will not get credence. Thanks for reading.

Worthwhile project Justi! It would be interesting to read about how you 'polish' them.

That is a wonderful work, taking much love and patience.  God bless you and give you strength.

Honey there is a long list of shining examples. There are those that never make it to get the grit and grime off, but so many do. If only one did it would be worth every minute of caring. Thank you for your kind words.
