Dear
Friend,
Greetings
in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus said in
Luke 4:18 “The Spirit of the LORD is
upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the
poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken hearted , to proclaim
liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to
set at liberty those who are oppressed;” Through your prayers
and support this is the Good News that we are sharing in our Support
Group Programs throughout the world and in our 5-Day Biblical
Counseling Program in Quincy. The following testimony is of a
young lady who was brokenhearted but now has found true liberty
and freedom through Jesus Christ.
“I
remember as a young girl at approximately 3 years old I was sexually
abused for the first time. This abuse continued until I was 18
years old. At the age of 12 years old, I started drinking heavily
and using marijuana to kill the shame and the pain of my abuse.
Due to my abuse, at the age of 18 I became very promiscuous and
got involved in an abusive relationship with a man who almost
killed me. At the age of 21, I met my husband and 7 years later
we were married. I held many jobs. I was a loan officer at a bank
for 4 years. I was a financial advisor at a truck driving school,
an office manager and served as administrative assistant for many
years. I was a functioning alcoholic and drug addict, however
my addiction continued to escalate. I was divorced at 38 because
of my husband's severe use of pornography and multiple addictions.
This divorce devastated me. At this point I found myself living
a purposeless existence. Now at age 45, I had lost everything.
A wonderful pastor from the local church in the town I live in
suggested that I go through the Addicts Victorious 5-Day Biblical
Counseling Program. There I completely turned my life over to
my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and found hope where I thought
that there was no hope. I truly want to thank all of you, whose
support can make this program possible to help hurting people
like I was. I'm no longer that person because I have found total
freedom through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
The
young lady in the testimony above found the true meaning of love
through Jesus Christ in the 5-Day Biblical Counseling Program.
Thank you again for making this possible.
In
His Service,
Rev. Jerald F. Jenkins
