I had no faith in God, until one night, both a Repo Man and Police Officer paid a visit, on the same evening, to my car where I had been living for over three months. I had all kinds of “stuff” in my car. I prayed to God, “If you get me out of this, I will never pick up again.” I now feel it was God’s grace that neither my car was repossessed, nor did I go to jail. With nowhere to go, I called my nephew who is a Life Challenge graduate from Texas.  They in turn contacted Pastor Jeff Bonzelaar for me. I had been in ten different rehab centers, with no success.  I knew that I needed to do something different; I knew that I was ready to try God. 

Since coming to Life Challenge Ministries, I am learning to know God more and more. 

I know that he is working on me every day.  I now read my Bible more, pray more (than I ever did before) and I am getting my family back in my life. Many people know the Serenity Prayer, which is very close to my favorite verse found in Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
