Amazing Class Healed Without Scars Class at Joshua Resource Center

Bredna, one of our previous graduates, came by today to let us know just how much her life has changed and how well she is now. When I asked her what she gained the most by attending JRC, she said, “I got my self-esteem back through the Healed Without Scars class and the Boundaries class, and my faith in God grew. I’ll always remember what I learned and I use it everyday. I was accepted here. I fit in here. ”

Brenda has enrolled in Pellissippi and wants to become a RN. She has a new home and she is radiant.

Again, thank you for your faithfulness in helping our women. Kathy Kagley

To see a new sparkle of hope in a woman’s eyes……………

Seeing her hold her head up higher and being able to look you in the eye when she talks……..

Watching her walk across the stage receiving her GED diploma…………..

Hearing her child say “Mommy, I am proud of you!”………………..

Empowering women!  “restoring hope and dignity – one life at a time”
