From a decade at Lansing Correctional Facility to sitting beside us in church as a free man, meet James. 🕊️
While incarcerated, James felt called to start a Saturday night church service that still thrives today. Growth Ministries had the privilege of mentoring him during his final year and walking alongside him as he transitioned back into society.
Since his release, James has secured housing, purchased a vehicle with his own savings, and is now working toward his CDL! James’ success is a testament to God’s grace and the power of having a "safe bridge" when returning home.
Will you help us build more bridges like this?
Please consider sowing into the lives of many more men and women like James. Your support provides the mentorship and community needed to turn a new chapter into a lifelong success.
