Spending time with my "daughter" Angela. Talk about the grace of God!!!!
A little over four years ago Angela was sitting in a jail cell facing a revocation of her probation and possible prison time. It was then I reached out to her, writing letters and just loving her.
Thankfully her probation was reinstated and she was released from jail. She was eight months pregnant and determined to change her life.
She started coming to church and hometeam with me, and God has transformed her life. She has totally turned her life around. Saturday she leaves for South Africa on her first mission trip. I am so blessed to have watched this unfold. Our God is an awesome God:)) I love you Angela.
I'm so glad I wrote those letters when God prompted me to reach out. It was that simple:)) a letter just letting her know I cared, then inviting her to church and home team.
