Elizabeth F.

I was brought to Hendersonville Rescue Mission by my father in the Fall of 2016. I was horribly addicted to alcohol, could not maintain a job of any sort and was no longer welcome to stay in my parents’ home. I had lost everything I ever owned due to my alcoholism and unwillingness to give it up. Reverend Tim Jones directed us to Miracle Hill Ministries’ Renewal for Women. I began there the end of November 2016 and graduated in July 2017. I have chosen to follow what I was taught there and to yield to God.
Now, instead of being a problematic, adult child and a danger to society; I am a responsible, empathetic, emotionally intelligent adult who looks to God’s word and to sound, faith-based counselors to make decisions. With the income with which God blesses me, I choose to tithe a minimum of 10% of my first fruits gratefully back to Him. Monthly I give $100 to Hendersonville Rescue Mission. Thank you for helping me when I was in need. I give $20 a month to the local humane society, $20 a month to Gideon’s and $20 a month to Miracle Hill Ministries foster homes for orphans. My parents give monthly to both Hendersonville Rescue Mission and to Miracle Hill Ministries’ Renewal for Women in recognition and in gratitude for what Reverend Tim Jones did for our family that day. God willing, the amount I give will increase throughout my life.
God showed up and rescued me “big time.” Keep heart in the work you are doing, it does make a difference.
