"God has blessed me by giving me a job at Hope House. When we change one girls life through God we not only change her life but the lives of multiple generations to come. I know that God's hand is in this ministry. I am daily praying that God will continue to work, guide the people, and provide for the ministry in every way. I love Hope House and every one of those girls!"
