Renewal Story: Charles
Posted:
“I thought I could do it on my own,” Charles says. He had grown up churched, but as he got older, he no longer turned to God. He now sees that was a mistake. A series of illnesses cost Charles on job after another, and he ended up on the streets of Fort Worth. For several years, he struggled to find a place to sleep, something to eat, even a friend to talk to.

He thoughts about suicide, but instead decided to seek help. From that point on, he says, “My journey began.” It led him to Union Gospel Mission of Tarrant County last May.

Renewal Story: Arica

She had a good job and place of her own. Then her mother fell into a coma, and Arica’s life changed dramatically.
