Change Process: (self-reported)

When many of our guests first come through our doors, they are homeless, have very little or no money, their relationships with loved ones are on bad terms and they have no job. In addition, their relationship with Jesus Christ is either non-existent or on a "back burner". For those who complete our entire four phase program, they have a job, money saved and debts paid off. Some of their relationships with loved ones are improving significantly, they have housing lined up and in almost all cases have a much closer relationship with Jesus Christ than they did before they arrived at our facility.
