Truly, I thank God for Central Union Mission. Before coming to the Mission, I was addicted to crack and heroin. I was miserable and hopeless. I was on my way to jail or death. But God lead me to the Mission instead.

Since being here for the last 16 months, the staff has shown me what it means to be a responsible, Christian man. They have loved me until I could love myself. Not always telling me what I want to hear, but showing me by the Word of God and their own experience how to live right. I have learned that life isn't always easy, but it sure is sweet on God's side.

Because of Central Union Mission I have hope and peace and that didn't seem possible before I came here.
