When your life is filled with chaos, it is reflected in all facets of your life. So it makes sense that the financial part of your life will follow. Many of our women need help with money management. In the following two weeks we will have a guest who will instruct the women on how to do basic budgeting, how to create a savings plan, and other financial lessons. Our women are looking forward to this class because it is a chance to start getting a grip on their lives.

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
