Success Stories and Testimonies from folks recently helped at Hendersonville Rescue Mission

Over the last 20 years of my life, I have struggled through homelessness and severe drug addiction. In July 2021, I had made a very bad judgement decision. That split second decision would literally cost me everything. I sat in county jail for 6 months, during which, I rededicated my life our Our Lord Jesus Christ. I went to prison, was released on 9 months parole, and went to rehab for 28 days before coming the Mission. The staff here are so caring, helpful, resourceful, and supportive. Now, with God at the center focal point of my life, the encouragement of the Mission, and local support groups, I have maintained my recovery for the past 14 months. I am now near completion of the Discipleship program offered by the Mission, and not only have I grown spiritually, but they have aided in my new life journey. When I was asked if I would be interested in being the Women’s Mission Attendant, I was speechless, because of knowing the amount of trust and responsibility they were putting in me. They showed me that they see in me the changes only God could make.
Thank you HRM! I look forward to being able to give back as a volunteer once this part of my journey is complete.
May God bless all those who follow through those doors of Saving Grace.
