Although the below is not from our group, it does express the Christian purpose of our ministry… to encourage high risk children to want to leave the physical and spiritual squalor of their upbringing and in turn help future such children leave theirs,
This is what breaking a generational curse of drug addiction & poverty looks like. If you told the little girl in that photo that she would be living the life I am now, I wouldn’t believe it. I wanted so badly to have normal parents & a stable surrounding but felt like I couldn’t ever “get out.” PLOT TWIST!! I did. I got out & I became the stable adult I needed as a kid.
I’m making this post in hopes that it reminds any child who has dealt with family addiction, poverty, & lack of guidance that you don’t have to live the life you were born into. Aim to be the adult you needed & never stop working on that person. It’s far from easy but so worth it. I promise.
