Paige lived every day in fear…

Paige’s problems started early in life. “I grew up in a good home filled with love, lots of family… we’d pray together, and I knew about God,” she recalls. “But in the 5th grade a good friend killed herself with a gun. Then one of my best friends committed suicide in the 8th grade.”

A few months later, Paige was gang raped at a high-school party. “I suddenly found myself really, really angry toward God. He was supposed to protect me. Why would he let these things happen to me?”

Paige has been in our New Life Recovery Ministry for a year. She is well on the path toward healing and a newfound personal relationship with Jesus who does care. “And now I care,” she says, “about myself, and others. There’s hope.”
