"The Community Welcome House is the best thing that has ever
happened to me. There is so much love and caring. When I arrived on a
Monday, I was extremely depressed and did not know what was going to
happen to me or where my life was heading. On Tuesday, I began my job
search. I found employment and began on Wednesday. I began to save
money. My goals are to purchase a car and start school next quarter. I
plan on having my own home by June 1, 2005. Through love, counseling,
Bible studies, church and a house mother who listens, I have learned
how to handle situations in my life positively and my life has changed
for the better. "
"I arrived at the Welcome House due to
domestic violence. I was homeless and had lost everything. I have three
handsome young sons who deserve everything. Since arriving I have begun
to think positive, and have added structure and stability to mine and
my son’s lives. It makes you feel good to know someone cares. I thank
God for this place. I have a job and my boys go to pre-k and daycare. "
"I can honestly say my experience at the
Welcome House has changed my life for the best. I came in as a very
fragile and insecure person, and being around such caring people has
helped my self-esteem. Coming here I was greeted by friendly faces and
I immediately felt comfortable. I have a job. I love to feel needed and
important. I know they truly care about me. I am truly blessed for
being accepted and treated like the person I’ve always wanted to be."
"My situation is diffrent from the
other residents. My husband and I had no place to live. I am expecting
a baby in August. We had nothing. I came to the Welcome House. I
receive the same care and support and that has made a difficult time
easier for me and as a result for my baby. Stress was not good for
either one of us. Just knowing that I can be in this wonderful place
until I can get back on my feet makes it so much easier to get through
each day. I thank God every day for the Welcome House. If it weren’t
for this place I don’t know what would have happened to me or my unborn
son."
"You Saved My Life!"
How powerful
those words are.
To
accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also DREAM; not only
plan, but also BELIEVE.
