"I am filled with hope and anticipation about what God is doing here at Home Of Hope"

A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

As I look back over my life, I can clearly see how God has been preparing me every step of the way, for the ministry He has called me to today. God literally spoke to me in a dream last Fall about working for Teen Challenge. He called, and I answered. He is so faithful! I am so humbled to think that He would choose to use me to preach the good news to the poor and to bind up the broken-hearted. I am filled with hope and anticipation about what God is doing here at Home Of Hope,
