Christy Update

Last summer I posted about a former student of named 'Christy' that I helped get into a recovery program for her drug and alcohol problems.

She came and visited me today at school.

I am happy to report that she celebrated her one year of sobriety last week.

She was on campus to pick up her transcripts so that she could be admitted to adult school to take a class to get her G.E.D. She is still working, getting along with her sister and aunt and looks and feels good. There was a genuine sense of relief about her. She talked about going on to city college after she gets her G.E.D.. It was great to see her and to know that she is progressing in her journey toward some sense of stability. Now that she has past her one year of sobriety she wants to sponsor others and help them on this difficult path.

This is all good news. Please continue to pray for her. If you know anybody in recovery, you know that the journey is sometimes difficult and life long. Pray that God would open up opportunities for me to show her the love Jesus has for her whenever we meet and that she would desire eternal recovery in Him.

Thanks for reading.
