Praise Report

October 30, 2011

Just passing along a message we received from a friend we met under the Steel Bridge two years ago.   We thank God for her testimony concerning the healing she has received and the grace she has been extended through Union Gospel Mission and Shepherd’s Door.   We also thank God for allowing those who partner with us under the Steel Bridge to be a part of her story of restoration.  

Hi!
 
My name is Danielle.
 
I just wanted to thank you for providing food and clothing to me when I was homeless about 2 years ago. I was 21, addicted to heroin, homeless, without God and without hope in this world.
Since then, I have been in recovery at the Union Gospel Mission, and more recently transferred to Shepherd’s Door, which is an all women’s facility.
 
I just wanted to encourage you with my story because it is truly a miracle. Thank you for being a part of it.
 
May God bless you!

Danielle’s story is one of victory through Christ and her story is what fuels us to continue to follow Jesus under the Steel Bridge each month.    We join Danielle in giving thanks to God for the healing & restoration she has received!
